Can We Shift House on Amavasya?

Amavasya is commonly avoided for griha pravesh and first entry. If the date cannot move, treat transport and ritual entry separately: shift goods for storage or setup, then enter formally on an approved muhurat.

The tradition view

Amavasya is on many avoid lists for new-home entry. Families who follow muhurat strictly usually skip it for griha pravesh.

The practical view

Movers can still transport goods if the society permits it. The question is whether your family treats goods movement as entry. That answer is cultural, not logistical.

The middle path

Move goods to the new flat, keep puja items out, and perform the first formal entry later. Write any waiting or split-delivery charge before booking.
