How Much Does House Shifting Cost in Kathmandu? (2026 Guide)

One of the most common questions we receive is: "How much does house shifting in Nepal cost?" While every move is unique, we have compiled a local SEO pricing guide specifically for the Kathmandu Valley (including Lalitpur and Bhaktapur) to help you budget.

Factors that Influence the Shifting Price in Nepal:

• Volume of Goods: A 3BHK takes significantly more packing material, labor, and truck space than a 1BHK.
• Distance: Moving from Baneshwor to Koteshwor is cheaper than moving from Budhanilkantha to Godawari.
• Floor Level / Accessibility: As mentioned earlier, if you live on the 5th floor without an elevator, labor costs increase.
• Packing Materials: Premium packing (bubble wrap, custom crating) costs more than standard blanket wraps.

Estimated Pricing Guide (Within Kathmandu Valley):

• Single Room / Studio Shift: Rs. 4,000 – Rs. 7,000
• 1 BHK Flat Shifting: Rs. 8,000 – Rs. 14,000
• 2 BHK Flat Shifting: Rs. 15,000 – Rs. 22,000
• 3 BHK Flat / House Shifting: Rs. 20,000 – Rs. 35,000+

Beware of Hidden Costs

Always ask for a transparent quote. Cheap movers might quote you a low initial price, but later add hidden charges for toll taxes, fuel, or "staircase fees". With us, the quote you receive is the exact price you pay.
