Don’t you just love convenience? It’s amazing when a work can be done with little to no effort. It saves you time, strength and helps improve productivity.
Packing and moving services is one such form of convenience that more and more Indians are embracing. Migration is a very common thing in our country, thousands of people migrate on a daily basis. To help make this task easier, more and more families, professionals, and students in both rural and urban areas are opting for packers and movers to relocate.
In 2019, ShiftKardo estimated that the market share for packers and movers in India was approximately in the range of ₹10,000-15,000 crore a year. This number has been steadily growing annually, especially due to millennials and their love for convenience.
Why Do People Love Packers And Movers So Much?
To understand why this industry is growing, we have listed a few reasons why people love packing and moving services based on our experience with our clients.
Convenience of course
The most obvious reason is convenience. Moving services allow clients to get their minds of moving stress and focus on other priorities. Millennials who are working professionals especially prefer convenience over cost-cutting hence they opt for our services frequently.
People are migrating more frequently
Believe it or not, migration has become a trend among young people. Instead of staying at a single place for long, young professionals are migrating for various reasons like job, family, travel, education etc. This has led to a rise in a preference for packing and moving services, especially home shifting services.
Shifting problems are eradicated
A lot of people have faced difficulties in shifting before organized moving companies became a thing. Problems like goods damage, slow delivery, no fixed moving rates, rough handling of goods, accidents etc, have plagued people’s experiences. With professional packers and movers, shifting problems and hazards are eradicated which is why more and more people are relying on moving companies because they also take accountability for damage.
You have trained personnels looking after your things
It’s tough to move things like fridge, furniture and overall big household stuff. That’s why most people end up damaging them by self-moving. Organised packers and movers have the qualifications to handle all kinds of goods and they just get better with experience.
People don’t have time
Cutting out the convenience factor, people opt for packers and movers because they just don’t have the time. Long working hours and work-pressure leads people to work overtime which results in not being able to plan a move properly. Hence, many people leave the work to professionals.
Final Thoughts
The world is getting busy, and in this busy hustle people love a spark of convenience. Unlike two decades ago, relocating has become a norm today. Due to a rise in relocation we’re seeing a rise in demand for moving services and an increase in the number of organised players in the market.
This behaviour is here to stay for the time being which is why we at Mega Pack and Carry provide full-fledged shifting services to our clients. Get in touch with us for any kind of help or information.
