Packers and Movers
Dehradun to Kanpur
Dehradun to Kanpur is about 560 km, usually via Meerut and then down the old Ghaziabad–Kanpur road (old NH-91) through Aligarh, Etah and Kannauj. It is a two to three day move door to door. The customers on this corridor are a mix of IIT Kanpur faculty and staff, defence postings to the cantonment and Chakeri, and transfers into Kanpur's defence-manufacturing units.

How the move works
- Free survey at your Dehradun address, in person or over video.
- Itemised written quote, usually the same day — the figure you are given is the figure you pay.
- Packing and loading by our team, using cartons, bubble wrap and crates rather than improvised materials.
- Transit of roughly 12–14 hrs to Kanpur, with status updates by phone or WhatsApp; goods-in-transit insurance can be arranged.
- Unloading, reassembly and debris removal at the Kanpur address.
Good to know for Kanpur
- IIT Kanpur's Kalyanpur campus controls vehicle entry at its gates. Share the house or hostel address and the occupant's details at survey so entry is arranged before delivery.
- Kanpur Cantonment and the Chakeri Air Force Station each run their own gate process. We send vehicle and crew details ahead rather than waiting at the barrier.
- Swaroop Nagar, Civil Lines and Kakadeo take a mid-size vehicle without trouble. The older wholesale areas such as Naughara and Generalganj need a smaller vehicle and fixed delivery hours.
- Kanpur and Lucknow are only about 90 km apart, so shared-load space on this corridor is often available. It is the easiest way to bring a 1BHK cost down.
