How My 2BHK Shift from Newtown Sector V to Ballygunge Became Easier with Yesh Packers and Movers
I am a corporate employee. I used to live near Newtown Sector V in my 2BHK flat. Recently I shifted from there to Ballygunge due to my job switch. Just thought of writing this blog to share my smooth shifting experience with people.
At first, I wasn't looking forward to the shifting process. The new rented house was ready with cleaning and all, but the thought of packing everything from kitchen utensils to furniture was already giving me a headache.
One of my old colleagues suggested that I look for professional packers and movers for my relocation. And 2 weeks prior to my joining, I started searching for reliable packers and movers near me in Kolkata .
After a few searches, I got Yesh Packers and Movers on the top 5 and headed forward to look for its work process, customer reviews, costs and so on. Actually the name of the mover got me, my grandfather's name is Yesh. And I could not think much and called for a pre-move and quick quotation.
It was all good on the call and pre-move survey too. The shifting date was fixed for a Saturday morning. And the final day arrived. And I wasn't expecting anything special or punctual, all I wanted was my belongings to reach safely.
What I still remember is that the team reached before I had even finished my second cup of tea. Usually, service providers in Kolkata say they will arrive at a certain time and then call an hour later saying they are stuck somewhere. This time, that did not happen.
The team walked through the house first. One person was noting down the bigger items while another started arranging packing materials. It felt organised but not robotic.
My mother was especially worried about the kitchen items. We had fragile items like glass jars, ceramic bowls, and glass dining sets. She kept asking the workers, “Will you take care of these? These won’t break right?” They simply smiled and assured her that everything would be packed properly.
That actually relaxed everyone at home.
There was one small but interesting moment during the move that made the day less stressful and that stayed with me.
When the workers lifted my father’s bed, we found old photo albums, a badminton racket from my school days, and even a few college notebooks that I thought were lost years ago. Actually I forgot about this storage unit under the bed.
For the next ten minutes, the entire shifting process stopped because I was sitting on the floor flipping through those old photographs.
One of the workers just smiled and said, “No worries sir, take your time. You might be feeling nostalgic, we understand”, and left for the refrigerator to pack.
The route from Newtown Sector V to Ballygunge is not very long, but Kolkata traffic can surprise you anytime. Around the Park Circus stretch, vehicles were moving slowly, and I thought unloading would get delayed.
Thankfully, the team had already planned things accordingly.
The cargo truck and me with my parents in my car entered the apartment way before the estimation. Waiter for 5 minutes for the mover team to start their unloading in our new home.
And the unloading process! What 's to tell you about that, it was smoother than I expected. The building in Ballygunge has limited parking space, which I thought would become an issue. But the workers handled everything without unnecessary arguments or confusion.
Normally, after shifting, you discover broken corners, scratched furniture, or missing items. I kept checking things one by one because I was expecting at least some damage, but surprisingly nothing significant turned up.
The television was fine. The refrigerator was fine. Even the glass items from the kitchen survived the journey.
That evening, while sitting among half-open boxes in the new flat, I realised something.
A good shifting company does not make the move memorable. It makes the move feel normal.
There is neither panic, nor shouting and any last-minute surprises.
Everything simply moves from one place to another the way it should.
A week later, another old colleague in Sector V mentioned that he was planning to shift near Garia . He asked whether I knew any reliable movers.
For the first time, I recommended a company without hesitation. Also, without any delay, I simply shared the contact details of Yesh Packers and Movers because my experience had been genuinely good and peaceful.
Even today, when I look back at that move from Newtown Sector V to Ballygunge, I remember the day as surprisingly stress-free. Of course, shifting will always involve some chaos. Boxes will be everywhere, family members will keep searching for things, and someone will definitely forget where the chargers are packed.
But having the right people handle the move makes a huge difference.
For anyone planning rented or owned full home relocation in Kolkata , my experience with Yesh Packers and Movers was a good one. The team was punctual, professional in behaviour and work process, careful with belongings, and easy to deal with throughout the day.
And to be honest, when you're moving an entire home, that's exactly what you hope for- a team that is punctual, professional, transparent and helpful.
So if you are moving soon, then choosing a professional mover is what I suggest. Have a call with the team, discuss the pre-move survey and get a quotation that is affordable.
