Looking for a house removal company in Chiang Mai ASAP!

[Kaopad999]

Can anyone recommend a removal company in Chiang Mai? . I am looiking to move from one area of San Sai to the other, approx 5 kms distance to the new house. 
I'm looking for the cheapest options possible, I did get some quotations from some of the western owned companies, but they wanted around 6,000 thb for the move, which seems expensive considering that i don't have a huge amount of stuff, and the distance to the new house is only around 5 kms away. 

Thanks!

Try a songthaew.

6000 is not expensive.

 

If it is just a little, you might try renting a car instead.

How much does he charge for moving TV cabinet, sofa, bed, tables, fridge etc?

6000 expensive? vehicle, man and gas?  I guess it's how much stuff you have and if you need one or two guys. When i dont have much to move I hired a songtao for 600/700 and move stuff myself. If it's a real house move (i.e. more than one trip) 6000 is not expensive.

And it is. Your mistake was contacting "the western owned companies" what did you expect?

Point taken, but i will do the packing myself, can help with labour, as i dont mind getting my hands dirty. plus i don't have a great deal of stuff, the big items, 2 mattresses , plus 2 office desks which wont fit in my car.

Well, I did mentioned the songthaews, and I have a couple of friends who operates them and they'd be thrilled to do it for 3000baht. But with your attitude, I'll not mention them.  Good luck.

I second that opinion from experience.
Nothing was broken and nothing damaged or missing after moving about 15 Q to warehouse and later to another town.

IMHO, if you think a proper removal it can be done cheaper then 6.000 B, I think you will need, and I wish you, good luck !
(Open truck, just loading and unloading no wrapping and packing, maybe ! )

I third that opinion. Outstanding. They even hung drapes, disassembled and reassembled a wall unit, etc.

Service above and beyond any expectations.

i thought this was going to be about tearing down or moving a house.

I think this is a UK type word; 'removal' seldom used in USA.  In USA most folks would say 'moving company'. 

And if you google your needs, you will find a number of options in CM.
