Indian Banks Association (IBA) has approved a number of packers and movers companies across India, so that, a bank employee can hire a trusted and IBA approved packers and movers for household shifting in India. These packers and movers are like any other relocation service providers there in the market. But, since they have got approval from IBA, they are the preferred choice for employees of a bank. But can you really find IBA approved packers and movers service provider in small towns, or district level cities in India? It’s surely going to be very tough and challenging for you.
Hiring a mover who is recommended by IBA, or IBA approved packers and movers’ companies gives you a little extra edge, because there are certain compliance to get IBA approval (I am not getting on that). But, even if you are hiring an IBA approved packers and movers service provider, it’s better to read the disclaimer on their website. As a good practice, a bank employee always prefers to hire an IBA approved packers and movers service provider, whenever they want to, or has to shift their household goods from one city to another. It kind of gives them certain sense of security and reliability, which is a big thing anyways.
Ways to find IBA Approved Packers and movers in India?
If you are staying in one of the major cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Kolkata, Pune, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Chennai or any other tier I or II cities in India, you can easily find tons of IBA approved packers and movers service providers who will be happy to help you relocate all your household goods, and even your vehicles if you have any. But, if you are staying in a remote location and you want to relocate, it may be a little difficult for you to find an IBA approved relocation and transportation service provider. We will be talking more about such scenario in the later part of this post.
Assuming you are staying in any of the metro city, you can either keep on searching at the IBA’s website, or you can start searching on the internet itself. You can use simple keywords like ‘IBA approved packers and movers in Bangalore’ (assuming you are searching for an IBA approved movers in Bangalore). You can refine your search according to any other cities in India.
You will have lots of options available in front of you, but which service provider to choose and go for, is yet to be decided. So, how do you plan to decide one among all those IBA approved shifting service providers? It’s simple. Call a few of them and state your requirements in detail, and ask them to give you written quotations after conducting a physical survey of your household goods and appliances. Once you have the quotations and estimates, you can take it to your bank for approval, and once approved you are on your way to get your household goods get relocated.

What if IBA approved movers are not available in your city?
As stated above, you may not be lucky enough to find a packers and movers company who has got the IBA approval, especially if you are staying in a remote location or a small town. PSU banks operate from even remote locations, and if you have been transferred from there to a different branch, you may have to settle down with a mover who is not IBA approved. But, does that mean you are compromising with the safety of your household goods? No, absolutely not. There are well placed packers and movers companies who may not have applied, or even tried to get an IBA approval due to lack of knowledge or resources. But, that does not mean you should not hire the other shifting service providers. You can hire them with confidence, and if needed, take pre-approval from your bank. We can get hold of such shifting and relocation service providers who can help you in getting your household goods and car transported from one city to another, anywhere in India.
Conclusion

But then, as the disclaimer on IBAs website clearly says that, “no one from IBA can guarantee the quality of services,” you should understand that.
