Moving in Patna

Shifting homes in Patna

Patna runs along the south bank of the Ganga for more than 20 km, and its housing changes from west to east. Danapur and Saguna More have the newer apartment towers, Bailey Road and Patliputra Colony are bungalows, government quarters and independent houses, and Boring Road and Rajendra Nagar are thick with four and five storey apartment buildings. South of the railway line, Kankarbagh is a vast colony of houses and flats. At the eastern end, Patna City is the old town, with lanes a car cannot enter.

A lot of Patna's apartment buildings were put up by small builders, with a lift that takes four people and a narrow stair beside it, and older houses tend to be full of sheesham and teak that has been in the family for years. That makes a Patna move heavy work. Add the lanes of Patna City, Rajendra Nagar and inner Kankarbagh, where a truck cannot reach the door, and the survey becomes the step that decides the crew, the vehicle and whether a second, smaller one is needed.

As the state capital, Patna sees a large share of its moves follow government postings, along with bank transfers, railway staff of the Danapur division and army families at Danapur Cantonment. Students come for coaching around Musallahpur and Boring Road, and for AIIMS, IIT Patna at Bihta and Patna University. Our office is at Adison Arcade on Frazer Road, and Ravindra Singh runs it. Every Patna survey, quote and crew is arranged from there.

Packers and movers charges in Patna

Patna is long rather than wide, so Danapur to Kankarbagh or Patliputra to Patna City can be 15 to 20 km through slow traffic, and a 2 BHK still fits into one working day. The hours go on the stairs of lift-less buildings, on loading in lanes that need a second, smaller vehicle, and on Bailey Road and Ashok Rajpath, where a truck can take an hour over a few kilometres at the wrong time.

Where we work

Areas we cover in Patna

Tell us what your building is near and we can work out the access without a site visit.

  • Boring Road and Boring Canal Road

    Apartment buildings with small lifts on roads crowded with coaching students. We load early, before the traffic builds and every parking spot is taken.

  • Rajendra Nagar and Kadamkuan

    Older, closely built houses and flats. The lanes are narrow, and some hold water for days after a heavy monsoon downpour.

  • Kankarbagh

    A very large colony of houses and walk-up flats south of the railway. The main roads take a truck, and the inner lanes need a smaller vehicle.

  • Patliputra Colony and Bailey Road

    Bungalows, government quarters and independent houses with room at the gate. Official residences need the handover date and entry fixed in advance.

  • Danapur and Saguna More

    Newer apartment towers with lifts, next to the cantonment. Army quarters need entry cleared, and Saguna More traffic is heavy in the evening.

  • Patna City

    The old town around Takht Sri Patna Sahib, with lanes too narrow for any truck. Goods come out by hand or small tempo to the main road.

Local know-how

Before moving day in Patna

  1. 01

    Society and building rules

    Apartment buildings in Patna usually have a residents' society or a caretaker put in by the builder, and they want notice, cleared maintenance and a fixed time for the move. Lifts are small, so the society may ask for anything big to go by the stairs. Government quarters on Bailey Road and in the secretariat colonies go back through the department that allotted them, and army quarters in Danapur through the station's own process, so the loading is fitted around those dates.

  2. 02

    Where the truck can stand

    Main roads like Bailey Road, Boring Road and the Kankarbagh main road can take a full truck, but it cannot stand on them for long, least of all near shops and coaching centres. The inner lanes of Rajendra Nagar, Kankarbagh and Patna City often cannot take one at all, and there a smaller vehicle or a handcart makes trips from the door. Flyover and metro work closes stretches of road from time to time, so the route is checked the day before.

  3. 03

    Traffic and timing

    Heavy trucks are barred from Patna's city roads for most of the daytime, so a big truck loads in the early morning or at night, and daytime work inside the city goes in a small vehicle. Ashok Rajpath, Bailey Road, Boring Road and the roads round Gandhi Maidan are worst in office hours. Chhath is the big one: for several days the roads to the Ganga ghats close and the whole city is out. Rallies at Gandhi Maidan can shut the centre at short notice.

  4. 04

    Weather and the months to plan around

    Patna summers are fierce, with hot, dry westerly winds in May and June and afternoons above 42°C, so the loading is over by mid-morning. Between late June and September the rains waterlog Rajendra Nagar, Kankarbagh and other low areas, and in a flood year the Ganga rises into the riverside colonies. Winter brings cold waves and thick fog from late December into January, which slows long-distance trucks at night. October, November, February and March give the fewest problems.

Moving out

Moving from Patna to another city

Patna is where much of Bihar comes for a posting, a hospital or a college, and where many set out from for work elsewhere. Officers move within the state, engineers and graduates leave for Delhi NCR and Bangalore, and families settle back in Gaya, Muzaffarpur or Bihar Sharif. Kolkata and Ranchi are regular moves too, each an overnight run.

Sending a car or a bike as well? From Patna to Bangalore a car costs about ₹14,000 to ₹23,000 and a bike about ₹7,600 to ₹12,500. A vehicle travels on a carrier of its own and arrives on its own schedule rather than with the cartons.

FAQs

Moving in Patna: your questions

Anything we have missed, ask directly. Both the phone and the WhatsApp line reach the same team.

Do you have an office in Patna?

Yes. Our Patna office is at Office No. 10, Adison Arcade, Frazer Road, and Ravindra Singh runs it. Surveys, quotes and moves across the city are arranged from there, and the office number is +91 93708 74504.

Our flat in Rajendra Nagar floods in heavy rain. Should we avoid moving in the monsoon?

If you can, move before late June or once the rains ease in late September. If you cannot, we watch the forecast and pick a dry morning, keep everything off the ground on the day, and pack with an extra plastic layer. After a very heavy spell, some lanes in Rajendra Nagar and Kankarbagh stay under water, and we wait for them to clear instead of wading through with your furniture.

Can you move us out of government quarters on Bailey Road on the vacating date?

Yes. Give us the vacating date and the day you join the new posting. A big house is packed a day early, loaded on the vacating day and handed over empty. The GST invoice and inventory follow the format your department asks for, which keeps the transfer claim simple.

When does Chhath get in the way of a move in Patna?

Across the festival's four days, and most of all on the evening and morning of the offerings, roads to the Ganga ghats are closed and the city is packed. We avoid those days for anything near the riverside, and for a move elsewhere in Patna we still start early and keep well away from the ghat roads.

What does it cost to shift a home in Patna?

On our rate card a local move inside Patna costs ₹10,000 to ₹13,500 for a 1 BHK, ₹12,000 to ₹16,500 for a 2 BHK and ₹17,000 to ₹21,500 for a 3 BHK. A 2 BHK going from Patna to Bangalore, about 2,100 km, is ₹28,000 to ₹36,500. Stairs, lift access and packing material decide where in the range you land.
