Short answer first
Answer
Pet relocation from Siliguri is priced per route, because distance, travel mode and your pet's weight all move the number. Short regional moves such as Siliguri to Guwahati cost far less than a cross country journey to Bangalore. Across India our domestic moves generally fall between ₹6,000 and ₹60,000 for one pet.
Siliguri is the corridor city connecting mainland India to Sikkim, Darjeeling and the entire north east. Almost every pet move into that region passes through here or through Bagdogra airport.
From Siliguri we would drive Guwahati, Kolkata and Shillong, put Patna and Delhi NCR on a train, and fly Mumbai and Bangalore.
Our Siliguri team picks up from Sevoke Road, Hill Cart Road, Pradhan Nagar, Matigara and everywhere else in the city, and covers West Bengal.

Choosing a mode
The routes we run from Siliguri range from Guwahati at about 460 km to Bangalore at about 2,300 km. That spread is why the answer is not the same for every move out of this city.
Guwahati, about 460 km on NH 10, is the run our Siliguri drivers do most often. A single day by road, or an easy overnight train.
We board at New Jalpaiguri (NJP) or Siliguri Junction (SGUJ) and handle the parcel office paperwork there. On Patna, about 600 km, this is usually the best value of the three modes.
Flights leave from Bagdogra Airport (IXB) at Bagdogra, which is about 16 km from Siliguri from the city, so the run to the cargo terminal is part of the plan rather than an afterthought. On Mumbai at about 2,100 km, flying turns a multi day journey into a few hours.
Crate sizes, coupe bookings and airline rules are the same wherever you move from. They are set out on the road, train and air guides.
Answer three quick questions and we will tell you which mode we would recommend on your route, and why.

Planning around Siliguri and Bagdogra
The monsoon between June and September is heavy and landslides on the hill roads towards Gangtok and Darjeeling are a genuine risk, so we plan slack into those legs. A blocked road on these routes is a normal event, not a rare one.
What we do. We check road status the day before loading and keep a fallback plan. If a road closes while your pet is travelling, they stay with our handler in safe accommodation and we call you straight away.
On top of the standard pre travel checklist, these apply here.
Dogs
The dogs we are asked about most in Siliguri are Indies, Labradors, German Shepherds, Spitz, which are mostly working and medium sized breeds rather than the flat faced ones. That makes the mode choice here simpler than it is in cities where half the enquiries are for a Pug or a Bulldog.
Distances from Siliguri are long enough that a lot of dog moves here go by train or air. Bangalore at about 2,300 km works out at roughly 44 hours of driving, which is more than most dogs should do in one go.
Cats
Persian cats make up most of the cat moves we run out of Siliguri. On the hill roads a covered carrier that cannot slide about matters more than anything else we pack.
Guwahati at about 460 km goes by road. For the Bangalore run we board at New Jalpaiguri (NJP), in a first AC coupe or in 2nd and 3rd AC with a handler alongside.
Pickup and delivery
Our Siliguri ground team picks up and delivers across the whole city and the outer belt. If your area is not on this list, it is almost certainly still covered, so just ask.
Paperwork and process
Vaccination record, a vet fitness certificate dated within 72 hours, and your ID. No NOC and no titer test anywhere inside India. Full document table, process and checklist.

Questions people ask
Pet relocation from Siliguri is quoted per route, because distance, travel mode and your pet's weight all move the price. Short regional moves cost far less than a cross country journey. Across India our domestic moves generally fall between ₹6,000 and ₹60,000 for one pet.
From Siliguri it depends on how far you are going. Guwahati at about 460 km is a road job. Bangalore at about 2,300 km is where a first AC coupe or a flight starts to make sense.
Large and snub nosed breeds lean towards road either way, whatever the distance says.
Yes. Indian Railways allows a dog to travel as registered luggage in the brake van, booked through the parcel office at New Jalpaiguri (NJP) and Siliguri Junction (SGUJ). We do the booking and the boarding.
The brake van gets warm, so from Siliguri we prefer a handler in a first AC coupe for anxious, senior and flat faced dogs. See the train guide for how the two compare.
The monsoon between June and September is heavy and landslides on the hill roads towards Gangtok and Darjeeling are a genuine risk, so we plan slack into those legs. On these routes we plan slack into the schedule and keep a fallback plan, because a blocked road is a real possibility rather than a rare one.
If a road closes mid journey your pet stays with our handler in safe accommodation and we tell you immediately. We never leave a pet waiting at a transfer point.
2,300 km, so about 5 nights on the highway if you drive it. We would put your pet on a flight out of IXB instead, which is a few hours plus ground handling. Very long haul where air is usually kindest.
Yes, for most healthy pets. The risk is not the flight, it is the ground time before loading and after landing, which is where our team stays with your pet at Bagdogra Airport, about 16 km from Siliguri out at Bagdogra.
Three to five days for road and seven to ten for air. Train needs ten to twenty, because a first AC coupe out of NJP is the tightest thing to get hold of. In May, June and late December, add another week.
People in Siliguri search for pet courier, pet parcel, pet movers and pet shifting, and usually mean the same thing. We do all of it under one service.
Courier is the word worth being careful about. Your pet never goes into a general goods network. On a Siliguri to Guwahati run that means one named handler from your door to theirs.
The whole city including Sevoke Road, Hill Cart Road, Pradhan Nagar, with pickup from your door. On air moves we handle the run to the cargo terminal, which is about 16 km from Siliguri from the city.
