What the terms mean
With a full truck (dedicated vehicle), the truck carries only your goods and drives straight to your new city. With a part load, your goods share a truck with other customers' consignments going the same way. Part loads are common on busy routes such as Delhi to Mumbai, Bangalore, Kolkata and Patna.
How they compare
| Part load | Full truck | |
|---|---|---|
| Cost | Lower; you pay for the space you use | Higher; you pay for the whole truck |
| Transit time | Longer; the truck waits to fill and makes several stops | Shortest; straight to your door |
| Handling | More, as goods may be moved between vehicles or at a hub | Least; loaded once, unloaded once |
| Best for | 1 RK, 1 BHK, a few items, flexible dates | 2 BHK and larger, fragile items, fixed dates |
How to choose
If you are moving a single room or a 1 BHK and can wait a few extra days, a part load is the economical choice. Packing quality matters more in a part load, because your goods may be handled more often. For a 2 BHK or more, a family move with children, or anything you cannot be without for long, a full truck is usually worth the extra cost.
