Ask your movers to know exactly what documents you will need to furnish. Our partners will assist you in paperwork to ensure an streamlined process.
Loading on the Train
Indian railways offers two methods for transporting a bike:
Booking as luggage: In this method, you will need to travel in the same train.
Booking as parcel: In this method, you do not need to travel in the same train.
Whatever option you choose, the process can be complex and intimidating. However, you do not need to worry much if you have professional help. Movers will handle the process on your behalf. They will benefit you with the following services:
- Complete the luggage/parcel booking form
- Book a luggage ticket
- Clearly mark the bike for easy identification after delivery
- Load the bike in the designated luggage or parcel compartment
Tracking
Movers will keep you informed about the status of your bike in transit. You can also monitor the vehicle on your own. Railway parcel authority provides tracking system.
Bike Delivery
Once your bike reaches the destination, the movers will pick up the vehicle on your behalf. You do not need to do the same. They will hand it over to you. If you have chosen door-to-door service, they will directly deliver to your doorstep.
