Homes in Sholinganallur and how we move them
Large gated complexes with their own lift and gate rules. Moves are timed to the association’s hours.
Truck access, parking and timing
The OMR junction is congested at peak hours, and heavy rain can slow it further. We plan the drive around both.
What the price depends on
The floor, the lift slot and the distance decide the price.

Sholinganallur: where OMR meets the ECR link
Sholinganallur is the junction town of southern Chennai, where the Old Mahabalipuram Road is crossed by the link road to the East Coast Road. That junction explains most of what makes a move here different: the roads are wide, but they carry office buses, trucks and weekend beach traffic in all directions, and a loaded truck that misses its window can lose an hour just getting out of the crossing.
Housing is a mix of large gated communities built over the last fifteen years and older individual houses in the villages behind the main road. The gated communities usually insist on a lift reservation, a refundable deposit and a fixed moving window, while the older streets have no such rules but have narrow, uneven approaches that a long truck cannot always enter. We ask at the survey which of the two you are in and plan a smaller shuttle vehicle only when it is truly needed.
Many families here move to Navalur, Perungudi or Medavakkam, which are short hops of ten to fifteen kilometres, but there is also a steady flow towards Bengaluru and Hyderabad for job transfers. For those, packing the day before and loading at dawn keeps the truck ahead of the city traffic and gets it onto the highway before the heat builds.
