How to Pay Safely When Booking Movers
Fraud by unverified packers and movers is a real risk in India. Follow these guidelines to protect yourself and your money.
Never Pay 100% in Advance
Reputable movers never demand full payment before the move. Pay 20-30% as advance and the rest after delivery.
Always Get a Written Quote
Insist on a written quotation with itemised charges before signing anything.
Verify Company Registration
Check the mover's GST number, company registration, and physical office address before booking.
Demand a Bill of Lading
A Bill of Lading (goods inventory list) must be signed by both parties at the time of loading.
Use Secure Payment Methods
Pay via bank transfer, UPI, or cheque. Avoid cash payments and never share OTPs.
Ask for Insurance Details
Transit insurance protects your goods. Always get the insurance certificate in writing before the move.

Use Secure Payment Methods
Always use trusted and secure payment methods, such as credit/debit cards, net banking, or other verified online payment gateways. Avoid making cash payments unless absolutely necessary, and always request a receipt for cash transactions.
Verify Payment Requests
Ensure that any payment request you receive is from National Shifting. Double-check our official contact details and verify the authenticity of the account before proceeding with the transaction. Be cautious of suspicious emails, messages, or calls asking for payments.
Avoid Sharing Sensitive Information
Never share your card details, PIN, passwords, or OTPs with anyone. Our team will never ask for sensitive financial information over the phone, email, or text messages. Keep your payment details confidential and secure.
Check for Secure Connections
Before making any online payment, ensure that the website or payment gateway is secure. Look for "https://" in the URL and verify the padlock symbol in the address bar. Avoid making payments on public Wi-Fi networks, as they may not be secure.
Keep Payment Records
Always save transaction receipts, payment confirmations, or screenshots as proof of payment. These records can be helpful in resolving any disputes or tracking your transaction history in the future.
Report Suspicious Activity
If you notice any unauthorized or suspicious transactions, report them to your bank immediately. Additionally, inform our team at [email protected] so we can assist you in resolving the issue.
