Bangalore to Chennai, Hyderabad & Pune: Intercity Moving Cost
Bengaluru to Chennai (~350 km) and Bengaluru to Hyderabad (~570 km) both fall in imTransporter’s 300–700 km pricing band — ₹17,100 (1BHK), ₹25,600 (2BHK) or ₹34,200 (3BHK), GST-inclusive. Bengaluru to Pune (~840 km) crosses into the longer up-to-1,950 km band, so it costs more: ₹33,200 (1BHK), ₹49,900 (2BHK) or ₹66,500 (3BHK). Your exact bill within a band depends on home size, how much packing you need, and how far in advance you book.

Key takeaways
- Intercity moving cost is driven mainly by distance band, not the destination city name — Chennai and Hyderabad price the same from Bengaluru because both sit in the 300–700 km band.
- Bengaluru to Pune (~840 km) is priced in the longer, up-to-1,950 km band, so it costs noticeably more than Chennai or Hyderabad.
- Home size (1/2/3 BHK) is the second biggest driver — more volume needs a bigger truck and more crew.
- All published prices are GST-inclusive, so there’s no 18% added after you accept a quote.
- Booking 2–3 weeks ahead and avoiding month-end dates typically gets you better truck availability and pricing.
- Get a written, distance-band-based quote rather than a verbal per-km estimate — it’s the only way to compare movers fairly.

Bengaluru to Chennai moving cost
Bengaluru to Chennai is roughly 350 km by road, which places it in imTransporter’s 300–700 km pricing band. That means a 1BHK move starts at ₹17,100, a 2BHK at ₹25,600 and a 3BHK at ₹34,200 — all GST-inclusive, covering packing, loading, transport and unloading at the Chennai end. Most Bengaluru-Chennai household moves complete transit within 1–2 days given the relatively short distance.
Bengaluru to Hyderabad moving cost
Bengaluru to Hyderabad is around 570 km, which still sits inside the same 300–700 km band as Chennai — so the published prices are identical: ₹17,100 for a 1BHK, ₹25,600 for a 2BHK and ₹34,200 for a 3BHK, GST-inclusive. This surprises some customers who expect Hyderabad to cost more simply because it’s farther than Chennai, but since both distances fall in the same band, the price doesn’t change.
Bengaluru to Pune moving cost
Bengaluru to Pune is about 840 km — well past the 700 km mark, so it moves into imTransporter’s next pricing band, priced up to 1,950 km: ₹33,200 for a 1BHK, ₹49,900 for a 2BHK and ₹66,500 for a 3BHK, GST-inclusive. The jump from the Chennai/Hyderabad band reflects the longer transit distance, extra fuel, and typically a 2–3 day transit window instead of 1–2 days.
Intercity trucks get booked out fastest around month-end and festival weekends. Booking 2–3 weeks in advance usually means better vehicle availability and a more accurate delivery window at the other end.
| Route | Approx. distance | 1BHK | 2BHK | 3BHK |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bengaluru → Chennai | ~350 km | ₹17,100 | ₹25,600 | ₹34,200 |
| Bengaluru → Hyderabad | ~570 km | ₹17,100 | ₹25,600 | ₹34,200 |
| Bengaluru → Pune | ~840 km | ₹33,200 | ₹49,900 | ₹66,500 |
What affects your intercity moving cost
Within any distance band, four things move your final bill up or down: home size (a 3BHK needs a bigger truck and more crew hours than a 1BHK), how much professional packing you need (fragile items, appliances and furniture dismantling add labour and material), whether you want optional transit insurance on high-value goods, and timing (peak season and month-end dates cost more than a mid-month, mid-week booking).
A mover who won’t commit to a fixed, distance-band price and instead gives a rough “per km” verbal figure makes it hard to know your final cost until the truck is already loaded. Ask for the exact band-based price in writing before you book.

How to save on your intercity move
Declutter before the movers arrive — every extra box adds to volume-based pricing. Pack non-fragile items yourself if you’re comfortable doing so, and reserve professional packing for electronics, glassware and furniture. Book mid-week and mid-month where your schedule allows, and compare at least two written, GST-inclusive quotes before you commit.
