Corporate and Employee Relocation — Office Moves and Staff Transfers, Managed End to End

Pikkol is a technology-driven relocation company headquartered in Bengaluru, founded in 2015 and now part of Hybrid Shifting, with access to the Transworld International network across 180+ countries.
What does an employee relocation service include?
Employee relocation usually includes a pre-move survey and quote within the policy budget, household packing and moving (domestic or international), car and pet transport, temporary storage, destination services (home and school search, orientation), and expense reporting for HR. Pikkol adjusts the package to each employee's grade and entitlement.
How do you plan an office relocation with minimal downtime?
Start 6–8 weeks out. Take an inventory of assets and IT, map everything to the new floor plan, label items by desk and zone, and schedule the physical move over a weekend or overnight. IT equipment is packed in anti-static materials, and servers are moved in coordination with your IT team. The goal is desks ready on Monday morning.
How can HR control employee relocation costs?
Set clear entitlements by grade (volume limit, insurance cover, storage days), insist on survey-based fixed quotes rather than estimates, use one relocation partner so rates are consistent and reporting is in one place, and offer lump-sum options for junior moves. Pikkol provides a per-move cost and satisfaction report every month or quarter.
Can you handle international assignments and inbound expats?
Yes. Pikkol handles outbound moves from India to 180+ countries and inbound moves to India through the Transworld International network. That includes customs clearance for both, visa support coordination, destination services and storage for employees on assignment.

Pikkol's Take — for HR and Admin leaders
The cost of a relocation isn't the moving invoice. It's the weeks a new hire spends distracted instead of productive. The companies that get this right give employees one point of contact, a clear written entitlement, and a move date they can plan their family around. Our advice to HR: standardise the policy, but personalise the move. Employees remember how the company treated their family during a transfer long after they've forgotten the joining bonus.
