Route Planner Timeline

Every TitanHaul move starts with a time-boxed route plan. We map choke points, slot building access, and pre-clear permits so the crew never waits on the curb. Below is our standard flow for high-density Indian cities—from recce to unload.

  1. Site recce & constraints

    We scout lane widths, turning radii, lift capacity, fire routes, and time windows. Narrow lanes often need pilot scooter escort and spotters. Findings become hard limits for the plan and fleet mix.

  2. Slotting & crew matrix

    We align slot-based scheduling with building rules and elevator cycles. Crew is split into micro-teams—packers, loaders, riggers—so each minute is billable to movement.

  3. Permit & safety pre-clear

    We secure police/NMC permissions for temporary halts, traffic cones, and no-parking waivers, and stage PPE & pad kits for fragile surfaces. The load plan is locked here.

Load Engineering & Gentle Handling

Heavy does not mean rough. TitanHaul trains crews to think like riggers: centre of gravity, strap angles, vector loads, and shock damping. That’s how pianos, servers, and stone slabs arrive pristine.

Strap geometry

Shallow strap angles (< 30°) amplify tension and risk slip. We target 45–60° with twin opposing straps to cancel lateral drift and cushion bumps.

Centre of gravity

We mark CG before lift. If CG is off-axis, we redistribute pads and use a three-point base to prevent rocking. Ramps get anti-skid runners.

Brief, lift, settle

A 60-second lift brief reduces near-misses: callouts, hand signals, and a soft settle to absorb shock. Pads protect walls, rails, and floors.

Urban Access Playbook

Cities are alive—markets, rain, festivals, school rush. Our playbook adapts tactics for the three most common access scenarios. Switch tabs to see how we plan gear, crew posture, and routing.

Choke Points & Narrow Lanes

Old-town streets can be 3.0–3.2 m wide with parked two-wheelers. We use pilot scooter to scout gaps, deploy cones, and marshal a zig-zag approach to keep traffic flowing.

Spotters handle blind corners; crew leapfrogs pads to protect walls. If clearance dips, we swap the main truck for a feeder mini-truck.

Fleet Mix, Tuned for Indian Streets

One size never fits every lane. Our fleet spans agile mini-trucks for bumpy by-lanes to seven-ton haulers for express corridors, plus hydra cranes for awkward lifts. Hover items to pause the rail and read specs.

Mini-Truck 1.5T Width 1.7 m Ideal: inner lanes

Nimble wheelbase and tight turning radius for dense colonies. Works as feeder from staging ground when the main truck can’t clear gate geometry.

For balcony lifts, roof hoists, and garden walls. Pre-rig briefing, tag lines, and exclusion zones keep bystanders safe while loads swing.

Packing Materials Lab

Materials are the first line of care. We test and combine pads, wraps, and edge guards so bumps turn into soft landings. Hover a card to tilt; bars show our typical spec on strength, water protection, and cushioning.

Corrugated Pads (3-ply)

Wrap wardrobes and appliances; tape joins only on pad-to-pad, never on surfaces. Adds slip resistance and distributes point loads across corners.

Waterproof Wrap

Rain-tempo friendly. Heat-sealed sleeves for electronics and fabrics; seams face down-slope so runoff never wicks inside.

Energy-Safe Routing

Smarter routes burn less diesel and stress fewer neighbours. We pre-compute time-of-day paths, plan no-idle buffers, and keep tyres & injectors in top shape. Small habits add up to measurable savings.

No-Idle Protocol

Engines off during pad-in/pad-out. Spotters keep the approach clear, then a coordinated push loads in one motion. Neighbours hear less, lungs breathe easier.

Off-Peak Paths

Our route engine avoids school bells, market peaks, and procession detours. Less braking, fewer stops, lower fuel per move.

Maintenance Discipline

Aligned wheels and clean injectors save fuel. Tyre pressure checks go with every morning brief; logs keep drift from creeping in.

Crew Choreography: Fast Hands, Calm Moves

A TitanHaul move runs on choreography—micro-teams flow through lanes with clear calls, clean handoffs, and zero clutter around lifts. The goal isn’t just speed; it’s predictable rhythm that keeps neighbours comfortable and cargo safe.

Staging → Lift Buffer

Packers kit items, tag corners, and send loads along the soft rail. The buffer captain meters flow so the lift never idles yet never clogs.

Lift → Truck Bed

Loaders speak in short calls; one person owns strap geometry. Floor pads leapfrog to prevent scuffs, while the bed chief centres CG.

Truck → Unload

On the far end, the path is pre-walked. Spotters clear blind corners, and the receiver team resets pads so heavy items land soft every time.

Stairway Physics: Angles, Grips & Landings

Stairs are where moves go wrong—so we study them like riggers. Strap angles, hand positions, pivot arcs, and landings matter. We brief the path, anchor grips, and practice brief, lift, settle before the first step.

Two-Point Grip with Pivot Arc

The lead lifts to knee height, the tail steers CG with a low pull. On each landing, we pivot on the outside foot to keep walls safe. Corners get foam guards and a runner so edges never kiss paint.

Ramp Inserts & Anti-Slip

For long runs, we add ramp inserts over high risers; rubberized mats keep boots planted in rain. Calls are short and rhythmic: “lift, step, settle”.

Client Prep Guide

A little prep multiplies crew efficiency. These steps shrink timelines, prevent surface damage, and help the layout at the new address feel right on day one. Open each tip for specifics.

Quality Assurance Log

Every move carries a logged checklist—surface protection, crew PPE, strap geometry, elevator padding, curb cones, permit stack, and final sweep-down. These checks keep neighbours comfortable and cargo pristine.

  1. Surface Protection

    Floors get runners; corners wear foam guards; rails take soft sleeves. Doors are propped safely with pads, never bare wedges.

  2. Lift Padding & Slotting

    Service lift interiors padded, timings booked in 20–30 minute bursts. Buffer captain meters flow to avoid hall pile-ups.

  3. Strap Geometry

    Opposed straps at 45–60°; soft corners; shock-damp settle before the truck rolls. Bed chief centres CG across bumps.

  4. PPE & Crew Brief

    Gloves, shoes, hi-viz where required. Calls are short and calm: “lift—step—settle”. Receiver team resets pads at landings.

  5. Curb Management

    No-idle policy at gates; cone lane keeps pedestrians safe. Pilot scooter scouts chokepoints before the turn-in.

  6. Final Sweep-Down

    Hallways cleared, lift cleaned, neighbours thanked. Photos and time stamps close the log for auditing.

Neighbourhood Courtesy Code

We earn goodwill by being good guests. TitanHaul’s code of conduct lowers noise, shortens curb time, and keeps shared spaces clean. The rules are simple and firm.

Sound Curtain

Mats under dollies, soft-close pads on doors, quiet calls—no shouting. If a corridor echoes, we slow the tempo.

Two-Cone Lane

Cones reserve a slim lane at the gate. Spotter guides wheels and pedestrians; engines off during pad-in/pad-out.

Clean As We Go

Pads catch dust; sweep-down closes each phase. Lift interiors wiped after use; packaging never left in lobbies.

Polite Priority

Residents always get right-of-way. If a stroller appears, we hold the pass and make the corridor generous.

Night Move Protocol

Some buildings prefer night hours. We switch to low-noise gear, amber work lights, and hi-viz PPE. Decibel caps apply; neighbours sleep, crew stays visible.

Low-Noise Dollies

Rubberized wheels, soft platforms, and slow turn-ins. Each landing gets a pad so edges never click on concrete.

Hi-Viz & Amber Lights

Hi-viz vests and arm bands; amber work lights angled down. The truck idles off; spotters carry small beacons for corners.

Specialty Moves: Pianos, Servers, Stone

Some cargo demands choreography beyond ordinary care. We combine ramp physics, shock monitoring, and soft geometry so fragile weight travels calm. Three scenarios capture our approach from setup to settle.

Concert Piano Ramp

Low-angle aluminum ramps with anti-slip mesh; straps at opposed angles; dolly brakes tested before the first inch. Landings get foam guards and a gentle settle.

Server Racks & UPS

Shock loggers ride the rack; cables labeled by bay; anti-static wraps keep dust out. Lift brief covers stop word calls—anyone can halt if readings spike.

  • Tag bays & cables
  • Shock sensors armed
  • Soft ride & logs

Stone & Glass Slabs

L-guards turn edges soft; A-frames lock the centre; strap triangles cancel sway. Crew rotates as a unit—no solo lifts—so weight never twists wrists.

  • A-frame & soft corners
  • Triangle straps
  • Settle on pads

Compliance & Insurance: Paper That Protects

Documentation isn’t paperwork—it’s protection. Permits, no-parking waivers, PPE logs, elevator windows, and insurance riders keep moves lawful and calm. We stamp each phase with time and crew lead.

Permits & Waivers

City police permissions and society NOCs are secured in advance for curb space and cones. The pilot scooter carries copies; crew chief keeps the master folder with time stamps.

Insurance Riders

High-value items get specific riders with declared value and handling notes—CG marks, ramp angle caps, and rain protocol. Riders travel with the QA checklist.

Audit Trail

Photos, slot logs, and PPE checks close each phase. The result is a clean trail that stands up to scrutiny and speeds dispute resolution.

Service Footprint Across India

From coastal humidity to dry interiors, city textures change how gear behaves. Our playbook adapts to lanes, lifts, and weather so the rhythm stays predictable. Below are core hubs and fast-response cities.

Hubs: Mumbai, Pune, Nagpur

Fast-response: Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Nashik, Indore

Rural links ride mini-trucks as feeders to the long-bed corridor, cutting dwell time at society gates. Monsoon protocol and no-idle rules apply at every site.
