A step-by-step playbook for a smooth Surat-to-Ahmedabad 2 BHK move — timelines, costs, and paperwork.
Distance, time and truck size
Surat to Ahmedabad is around 265 km via NH-48 and takes 5–6 hours by truck. A standard 2 BHK fits comfortably in a 19-ft or 20-ft container truck. Same-day delivery is easily possible if the truck leaves Surat by 8 AM.
Realistic budget
Expect ₹11,000 – ₹22,000 for a full 2 BHK, all-inclusive. Shared/part-load can go as low as ₹7,500 if you're flexible with dates. Add ₹1,500–₹3,000 for a car if you're shifting one too.
3-week timeline
Week 1: on-site survey, fixed quote, book the date. Week 2: declutter aggressively, gather documents, notify your society and building management on both sides. Week 3: pre-pack seasonal items, confirm parking permission at the Ahmedabad address, arrange lift booking.
Paperwork you'll need
ID proof, address proof for the new Ahmedabad flat, society NOC (some Ahmedabad societies insist), inventory list signed by both parties, and the transit insurance policy copy. Keep digital copies on your phone.
Move day playbook
Loading in Surat by 8 AM, truck departs by 11 AM, arrives Ahmedabad by 5 PM, unloading complete by 8 PM. Have someone at the Ahmedabad address by 4 PM to guide the driver and handle society formalities.
