Planning to shift?Choose this movers & packers aggregator for hassle-free relocation

Is shifting home the toughest of all tasks that we take upon ourselves? Apparently yes. Whether it’s about moving from one city to another or within different localities, shifting is bound to drain your energy. The most common issues faced while moving and packing include:

• Unfair pricing
• Damage of items
• Defacement of furniture, fragile glasses etc
• Items gone missing during transit
• Unprofessional behaviour of movers & packers staffers
• Lack of real-time update during long-route transit
• Glitches while tracking

As a matter of fact, these are just a few of the bottlenecks that are faced by people during shifting. But the point now is how one can overcome all these frictions. The answer lies with technology, which has become an indispensible part of our lives post the outbreak of the pandemic. Tech-based innovations in the shifting and relocation space have led to the emergence of a few aggregators like Shift Freight, who much like the OYOs and the OLAsare solving the scattered pieces in the movers & packers segment.
