Moving house in Goa: what to plan for
Villas and village roads
Many homes are reached by narrow village roads where a large truck cannot turn. A smaller vehicle often carries goods to the main truck.
Monsoon
Goa gets very heavy rain from June to September. Goods get extra waterproof wrapping, and the date allows for weather delays.
Moving to and from Goa
Mumbai, Pune, Bengaluru and Mangaluru are the usual routes in and out. The table below shows distances and transit times.
