Quick answer before you compare quotes
The best Hyderabad to Chennai mover is the company that proves business details, writes shared or dedicated truck mode, confirms Chennai unloading support and puts GST, insurance, car or bike add-ons and payment terms in writing before advance. Pick route-confirmed vendors, not only the lowest phone quote.
What does a 2 BHK shift cost on this route?
Usually Rs 19,500 to Rs 30,500 on a shared truck and Rs 28,500 to Rs 40,500 on a dedicated truck. Floor access, packing grade and vehicle add-ons decide where your quote falls.
How many days does it take?
2 to 4 days by dedicated truck for the 630 km route. Shared or part load usually takes longer, since dispatch waits for load matching. Always ask for loading, dispatch and delivery as three separate dates.
Shared, dedicated or part load?
Part load (Rs 14,000 to Rs 20,500) suits few items with flexible dates. A full family home or a fixed Chennai joining date is safer on a dedicated truck with a written dispatch day.
Can my car or bike go along?
Yes, as a separate written line. Scooty or commuter bike (up to 150cc) usually runs Rs 4,500 to Rs 5,500; hatchback or small car runs Rs 10,000 to Rs 12,500. Ask for handover photos at pickup.
Hyderabad to Chennai runs about 630 km south on NH44 through Kurnool, then the coastal approach past Nellore into the city, and it is a steady IT and family lane. A 1 BHK usually sits around Rs 14,000 to Rs 20,500, a 2 BHK around Rs 19,500 to Rs 30,500, and a 3 BHK around Rs 29,000 to Rs 45,000. The final number turns on your Hyderabad pickup tower, the Chennai delivery area and whether you take a shared or dedicated truck.
| Load size | Shared / part load | Dedicated truck | Best fit |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 BHK | Rs 14,000 to Rs 20,500 | Rs 20,000 to Rs 27,000 | Small apartment, limited furniture |
| 2 BHK | Rs 19,500 to Rs 30,500 | Rs 28,500 to Rs 40,500 | Family shift with a full kitchen |
| 3 BHK | Rs 29,000 to Rs 45,000 | Rs 41,500 to Rs 59,500 | Full home, premium furniture and more helpers |

Every range here comes from the printed rate card and vehicle table on this page. A written quote still needs your goods list, floor and lift at both ends, and the Chennai society rules. See how ShiftCompare calculates charges.
| Vehicle | Cost range | What to confirm |
|---|---|---|
| Scooty or commuter bike (up to 150cc) | Rs 4,500 to Rs 5,500 | Wrap, mirror fold, low fuel and pickup photos. |
| Heavy bike (Royal Enfield, above 150cc) | Rs 5,500 to Rs 7,000 | Crate or extra lashing, tank and side-guard care. |
| Hatchback or small car | Rs 10,000 to Rs 12,500 | Open carrier, condition report and fuel level. |
| Sedan or SUV | Rs 12,500 to Rs 15,500 | More carrier space; enclosed carrier for a premium car. |
GST should be clear before advance. Transport-only service is usually 5 percent and full packing and moving is usually 18 percent, so ask which one the quote uses and confirm the GSTIN and company name on the Verify Packers Movers tool. Transit insurance is usually 1.5 to 3 percent of the declared value. Ask for the policy copy and claim steps instead of a spoken 'fully covered', and photograph the TV, fridge and any glass before packing so a claim after a 630 km run has proof.
While pure driving time on NH44 and the coastal approach is about 10 to 11 hours, a commercial household move takes 2 to 4 days. That window covers safe multi-point loading, toll and checkpoint stops, and Chennai apartment move-in slots and coastal rain, so a crew promising same-day delivery is usually cutting a corner on packing or paperwork.
The three-dates rule: The Hyderabad to Chennai run is about 630 km south on NH44 through Kurnool, then the coastal approach past Nellore, usually 2 to 4 days by dedicated truck. A shared load can take longer because dispatch waits for a matching load. Confirm the dispatch day, the toll and checkpoint stops, and the expected Chennai delivery window as three separate dates, not one loose promise.
These are not generic city listings. A card appears here only when the mover profile is marked for this route, and a rating counts only when an approved customer record ties it to this corridor.

We stay in the deal till delivery
We do not just sell your lead. If a verified mover delays your shipment or changes the bill at the Chennai apartment gate, our ShiftCompare team steps in to mediate and enforce the written quote you agreed before advance.
Your goods share truck space with other shipments on the same corridor. Cheapest per item for a few cartons or single furniture pieces, but the delivery window widens and dispatch waits for load matching. Always ask for the dispatch day in writing.
Lower cost, softer delivery date and possible warehouse handling. Works for a light 1 BHK or few items when dates can flex.
Higher price, cleaner dispatch, fewer handovers and better date control. Better for families, office goods, premium furniture and fixed joining dates.

Here is a breakdown of standard closed containers and loading specs routinely used along the NH44 for this 630 km highway route.
| Home Size | Recommended Vehicle | Capacity | Notes for Hyderabad to Chennai Route |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 RK / 1 BHK | 14 ft Eicher | 1.5 to 3.5 tonnes | Standard for NH44 runs. Single-driver, GPS-tracked. |
| 2 BHK | 19 ft Closed Container | 3.5 tonnes | Most-booked on this route. Prevents monsoon and rain damage. |
| 3 BHK | 22 ft Container | 5 to 7 tonnes | Recommended over open trucks for 630 km journeys. |
| 4 BHK / Villa | 22-24 ft Closed Container | 7 to 9 tonnes | Two-driver crew for non-stop highway transit. |
| Premium / XL | 32 ft SXL | 14 to 16 tonnes | For heavy furniture (pianos, large wardrobes). |
The rate card above gives the planning range. This is the detailed breakdown underneath it: the packing and transport split, every line a bill can carry, and the access factors that move the total.
| Home size | Packing & labour | Transport (630 km) | Total cost (approx.) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 BHK | Rs 4,000 to Rs 6,000 | Rs 10,000 to Rs 14,500 | Rs 14,000 to Rs 20,500 |
| 2 BHK | Rs 5,500 to Rs 9,000 | Rs 14,000 to Rs 21,500 | Rs 19,500 to Rs 30,500 |
| 3 BHK | Rs 8,500 to Rs 13,500 | Rs 20,500 to Rs 31,500 | Rs 29,000 to Rs 45,000 |
OMR, Velachery, Tambaram and Anna Nagar each have different access, and an OMR gated community can push unloading to a fixed daytime slot.
October to December brings heavy rain on the OMR side, so covered trucks, waterproof wrapping and a dry unloading plan matter, and a wet day can add waiting.
A Gachibowli or HITEC City high-rise with a booked service lift loads faster than a no-lift older block, and a long carry from the society gate adds labour.
A shared load is cheaper but waits for a matching load; a dedicated truck holds your date, which matters for a fixed Chennai joining.
Above the second floor without a working lift, or a truck that cannot reach a Chennai apartment, adds a floor-carry or shuttle line to the quote.
A car or bike is a separate line by carrier type and CC, never a number folded into the household total.
The lines that surprise people on this lane are GST added after bargaining, a Chennai apartment lift or move-in deposit, long carry from a tower gate, a bike crate charge, insurance markup, and monsoon waiting or storage when the Chennai flat is not ready. Ask whether unpacking, bed assembly and appliance placement are included, and keep the advance small until the written scope covers all of it. Read hidden charges before booking a low number.
Gate pass, service-lift slot and basement parking decide loading time.
Office traffic and tower security need early crew details.
Mixed high-rise and older-apartment access affects helper count.
Older roads and cantonment-side routing need a truck access check.
Long internal roads and society timing should be in the quote.
Moving to Chennai: Chennai unloading should mention OMR, Velachery, Tambaram or Anna Nagar because each area has a different access pattern. Share the exact Chennai area, floor, lift status, parking point and receiver phone before comparing movers.
Gated IT-corridor communities here fix move-in hours and want a gate pass and lift slot, and coastal rain needs covered unloading, so confirm all three plus the receiver phone before dispatch.
Dense central apartments run tight parking and single lifts, so confirm the lift slot, parking point and stair access before the truck leaves Hyderabad.
Confirm the exact sector, truck access on narrower roads and whether a smaller shuttle is needed for the last stretch, plus the unloading time slot.
Older central buildings can mean stair carry and a narrow lane, so settle the stair-carry charge and the allowed unloading hours before booking.
Booked through ShiftCompare, that is our problem too. Read how booking works above for the mediation promise in step 3.
The best choice is a Hyderabad-based mover that can prove business details, write truck mode clearly, confirm Chennai unloading support and put GST, insurance, car or bike add-ons and payment terms in writing before advance.
We check GST proof, office and phone proof, service match, route coverage, quote behaviour, truck mode and destination contact clarity. For this onboarding batch, route cards show route-confirmed coverage unless city-wise proof is attached per destination.
A maximum of 3 matched movers should contact you after the form. The goal is a written comparison, not a call flood.
Yes. The Hyderabad to Chennai charges section on this page carries the BHK ranges, GST, insurance, shared versus dedicated truck and vehicle add-on checks, so you can read the cost and pick a mover on the same page.
Shared load can suit few items or a light 1 BHK when dates are flexible. Dedicated truck is better for larger homes, office goods, vehicle add-ons or a fixed delivery date.
Ask for GST details, written inventory, truck mode, pickup date, expected delivery window, Chennai unloading contact, insurance basis, car or bike handover photos and payment terms.
A dedicated truck usually takes 2 to 4 days. Shared load may take longer because dispatch waits for a matching load or warehouse scheduling.
Between October and December, yes. The OMR and Sholinganallur side sees heavy coastal rain, so ask for waterproof wrapping, covered loading and a dry unloading plan. Confirm the apartment tower access and lift slot too, because OMR gated communities often fix a move-in window.
