jonwilly Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 I am moving my location in Chiang Mai. I seem to remember that there is at least one local company exists that will pack up and then transport my belongings. Can anyone recommend such a company? john Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamb00ler Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 (edited) I just moved a 3 bedroom house full of furniture to a new home in CM on June 29. The mover showed up with 4 guys and a big box truck with a lift on the back end. They arrived about 9:30AM and finished about 4:30PM with one truck load. They were mostly reasonable careful, but TIT..... No major bangs or bruises. Almost all of the stuff was already packed. However they did wrap a several pieces in stretch plastic wrap to keep it clean or prevent the drawers or doors from opening. So you get some idea we moved: 2 bedroom sets of dresser + 2 nightstands 1 china cabinet 2 sofa's 1 medium + 1 small fridge 1 dining table + 3 chairs 2 coffee tables, 3 other occasional tables 4 mattress, 2 box springs + quite a bit of odds/ends The total load exceeded the box truck capacity by about 5% so we moved extra stuff in our SUV. Cost was negotiated to 18K from 20K initial bid. We probably paid extra because our move was supposed to happen mid month but was not scheduled until June 24th. Move was delayed due to construction delays at new home. If you're interested I can give you contact info.

I'm not sure of the extent of Boonma's involvement, but when we shipped a container of household goods, they managed the Thai end of transport and customs clearing. The crew they provided for unloading our container in CM was excellent and the lead worker spoke English. Edited July 4, 2023 by gamb00ler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonwilly Posted July 11, 2023 Author Share Posted July 11, 2023 I am planning a move early January 2024. I will be moving from my single room Condo which I own, to a Retirement home. I have visited two such homes and plan a third today. Thanks to all who have provided information. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GammaGlobulin Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 I highly recommend using: https://chiangmairemovals.com/ I have used them on three occasions in the past, since 2015. The owner is a super-nice guy from the UK (who also enjoys distance hiking in the UK, when he returns to England during the Hot Season), and I recall his name is John. Really nice person. And, he is careful and reliable. I think that he even offers storage services, both short term and long term storage. Next time I move... I will definitely use this service, once more.
