In the last few years, several relocation-related theft cases have emerged across India. These incidents—ranging from stolen belongings to fraudulent movers disappearing after pickup—have made customers more cautious about how they choose a moving company. Each case acts as a real-world lesson on why proper documentation, company verification, and insurance coverage are not optional—they are essential.
At KayraPackers.com, we encourage customers to stay informed and make decisions that safeguard their valuables from the moment packing begins to the time goods are delivered.
1. Theft Cases Show Why Verification Is the First Line of Defense
Many thefts reported in the media involve unregistered or fake packers and movers posing as professionals. These groups often use temporary phone numbers, fake websites, or social media ads.
How to Protect Yourself:
- Verify the company’s GST number, registration, and physical office address.
- Check genuine reviews on Google, JustDial, and trusted aggregator platforms.
- Avoid agents or middlemen—deal directly with the company.
- Inspect the company’s branding on trucks, uniforms, and packaging materials.
Kayra Packers ensures:
Official registration, traceable operations, and professional staff.
2. Documentation Is Your Legal Shield
Many theft-related complaints arise because customers did not receive proper documentation. In such cases, proving ownership or fault becomes difficult.
Must-have documents during relocation:
- Quotation on official letterhead
- Inventory list of packed items
- Insurance policy papers
- GST invoice
- Transport receipt / LR copy (Lorry Receipt)
Having these documents prevents disputes and strengthens your case if you need to file a complaint.
3. Why Insurance Is a Non-Negotiable Safety Net
Recent cases show that even when the theft occurs during transit—like container break-ins, truck hijacking, or warehouse breaches—the absence of insurance leaves customers helpless.
Your Rights Include:
- Option to insure your goods for the full value.
- Clear explanation of insurance type: transit insurance or comprehensive coverage.
- Claim support in case of loss or theft.
KayraPackers.com offers:
Transparent insurance assistance and complete claim-support guidance.
4. Beware of Unrealistically Low Quotes
Multiple theft cases involve customers choosing extremely low-priced service providers who later absconded with their belongings.
Low quotes often indicate:
- No official documentation
- No insurance
- Temporary staff with no background verification
- Fraudulent operations
Always compare quotes, but prioritize trust—not just price.
5. Tracking and Transparency Prevent Suspicious Activity
Some recent theft cases occurred because customers lost contact with the movers once the vehicle left.
Choose movers who provide:
- Vehicle tracking
- Real-time service updates
- Verified driver and helper details
- A dedicated customer support number
Kayra Packers ensures transparent communication from pickup to delivery.
6. Key Lessons for Every Customer
Based on recent theft-report trends, follow these golden rules:
- Verify before you hire – registration, reviews, address.
- Document everything – quote, invoice, inventory, insurance.
- Avoid cash-only deals – always use traceable payment methods.
- Insure your goods – especially for long-distance moves.
- Inspect the packing process – stay involved.
These simple steps drastically reduce the risk of theft, fraud, or loss during relocation.
