Why Is Shifting from Gurgaon to Ahmedabad So Challenging and Tiring?
Gurgaon is a city of high-rise apartments, service elevators, and society permissions, while Ahmedabad has its own quirks like gated bungalows, pol houses in the old city, and narrower lanes in some areas. Here are some things you have to deal with:
- Traffic & Loading Restrictions in Gurgaon: High-rise societies in DLF Phase 5 or Sector 56 often have strict moving hours (usually early morning or late evening). You might also need society gate permissions for loading trucks.
- Entry Restrictions in Ahmedabad’s Old City: If you’re moving into older areas like Manek Chowk or Shahpur, big trucks can’t enter during the day. Your mover must plan smaller vehicle transfers or late-night deliveries.
- Highway Route Hazards: The NH48 route is generally good, but sections between Jaipur and Udaipur can be bumpy. Poor packing = guaranteed breakage.
- Different Apartment Rules: In Gurugram, you might be used to lifts big enough for furniture. In Ahmedabad’s older apartments, narrow staircases mean extra manpower and creative loading.
Common Problems You’ll Face When Shifting from Gurgaon to Ahmedabad and How BOXnMOVE Solves Them
On paper, it’s just another intercity move. But in reality, shifting from Gurgaon to Ahmedabad has unique challenges that you should plan for:
Problem #1: The Endless Society Paperwork in Gurgaon
If you’ve ever lived in DLF Phase 3, Sector 56, or any of the big high-rises on Golf Course Extension, you know moving out is like a small military operation. You need gate passes, lift booking confirmations, and sometimes even a security escort for the moving truck.
How BOXnMOVE handles it:
We talk to your building management in advance, arrange for the right size of loading vehicle that fits your society’s entry gate, and send in uniformed staff so your watchman doesn’t give you the third degree. No last-minute “truck can’t come in” drama.
Problem #2: Packing for a 900 km+ Journey
From your glass-top dining table to your kid’s LEGO collection, this isn’t a short-distance hop. The Gurgaon to Ahmedabad drive takes anywhere from 18–20 hours, and that means your belongings will be rattling in the truck for two full days.
How BOXnMOVE handles it:
We don’t just throw bubble wrap at the problem. Delicate crockery is wrapped, cushioned, and boxed upright. Electronics are covered in anti-static sleeves and foam. Furniture corners are padded, and mattresses get dust-proof covers so they don’t arrive looking like they’ve been through a sandstorm.
Problem #3: Ahmedabad’s “Last Mile” Challenges
If you’re moving to areas like Navrangpura or old Manek Chowk, the streets aren’t always truck-friendly. Large vehicles may have to stop at the main road, and goods are then shifted in smaller tempos.
How BOXnMOVE handles it:
We pre-check your delivery location and, if needed, arrange for the right transfer vehicle so you don’t end up with a truck stuck two streets away from your house.
A Gurgaon to Ahmedabad Relocation Story You’ll Relate To
Let us tell you about Anjali and Ramesh, a couple who recently moved from a 3BHK in Gurgaon’s South City 2 to a bungalow in Ahmedabad’s Satellite area. When they first called us, they sounded exactly like most people do before a big move: stressed and slightly panicked.
- Her worry: “My mother’s antique swing from our living room is my biggest treasure. If even one chain link breaks…”
- His worry: “My home-office setup has two 32-inch curved monitors and a fragile mic arm. If those get damaged, I’m doomed.”
Here’s how we handled it:
- Pre-move survey: We visited their Gurgaon apartment, measured the swing, and custom-built a wooden crate for it.
- Tech-safe packing: Each monitor was packed in molded thermocol, wrapped in thick foam, and placed in reinforced cartons.
- Route planning: We scheduled the loading at 7 AM to avoid the Sohna Road traffic.
- Real-time updates: Throughout the journey, they got live GPS tracking and photos of the truck at checkpoints.
- Unloading in Ahmedabad: The swing went straight to the living room, installed by our team. No scratches, no broken chain.
Their move wasn’t “hassle-free” just because we say so; it was because every problem was addressed before it even became a problem.
