How PrestoLink Makes Sure Safe Shifting Happens in Kolkata During the Monsoon

During the monsoon in Kolkata, there is rainfall, water logging and humidity. All this makes the shifting difficult. In PrestoLink Packers and Movers Pvt. Ltd., we ensure that the challenges posed by monsoon are met by changing packing methods and planning transport accordingly. No matter if you're doing local shifting or hiring packers and movers in Kolkata for intercity shifting, we are here to help make sure that your valuables remain safe during the shifting period.

How Do We Prepare For Monsoon Shifting?

Packing With Water Proofing Materials:

The furniture, mattresses and electrical appliances are packed in water proofing HDPE sheets and stretch film as well to provide extra protection against moisture.

Packing Extra Fragile Objects:

The fragile objects such as glass wares, kitchen wares, mirrors and decorative items are packed in bubble wrap, foam sheets and corrugated cartons.

Effective Loading System:

We make sure that the loading of household goods is done carefully without unnecessary exposure to rain. The loading is planned keeping weather conditions in mind wherever feasible.

Enclosed Container Transporting:

If your moving is inter-city, then it would be best to use the enclosed container trucks because these will safeguard your belongings from any kind of weather on the way to your new destination.

What Affects Moving Charges in Kolkata?

Every relocation has different requirements, which is why we calculate moving costs after reviewing the complete relocation plan.

Household Inventory

More furniture and cartons require larger vehicles, additional packing materials, and a bigger moving crew.

Moving Distance

Local moves within Kolkata generally cost less than intercity relocations because transportation distance directly affects operational expenses.

Packing Requirements

Essential Shifting Guide

Tips for Moving Your Belongings During Monsoon in Kolkata Using Packers and Movers

Moving during monsoon time in Kolkata calls for some added caution owing to heavy rainfall and waterlogging on the road along with heavy traffic congestion. These tips can help you ensure smooth transition without harming any of your belongings.

1. Hire Packers and Movers in Kolkata Who Will Use Enclosed Container Truck for Your Shift

In case you are moving during monsoon season, make sure that your packers and movers in Kolkata use an enclosed container truck rather than an open body one for the safety and protection of your household goods from the rain, moisture and dust.

2. Keep Your Electronics and Documents Secure

While the best packing materials are used by the professional moving companies, it is always a wise decision to carry your electronics, important documents like camera, laptop, cell phone, charger and all the valuable items in a water proof bag.

3. Consider Wet Roads and Apartment Society Timings

Some roads become wet during monsoons and might also see heavy traffic on that day. It is advised that before the moving date, one should make sure to plan the collection timing along with the timings of the apartment societies in Kolkata. Proper planning will help to avoid delays.
