Routes We Run from Kolkata
Our core network is the Eastern corridor out of Kolkata — the route we started on in 1985 and still run every week:
| Route | Distance | Typical transit |
|---|---|---|
| Kolkata → Siliguri | ~600 km | 1–2 days (full truck) · 2–3 days (part load) |
| Kolkata → Gangtok & Sikkim | ~700 km | 2–3 days |
| Kolkata → Bhutan (Phuentsholing) | ~700 km to the border | 2–3 days · +1 day for Thimphu |
| Kolkata → Guwahati & North-East | ~1,000 km | 3–4 days (full truck) · 4–5 days (part load) |
Transit times are typical, not guaranteed — monsoon conditions on NH10 and festival-season congestion can add a day. We quote realistic dates at booking.
Full Truck Load or Part Load from Kolkata
Every shipment starts with one decision: a dedicated truck, or shared space on a consolidated load.
- Full Truck Load (FTL) from Kolkata — a dedicated vehicle straight from your pickup point to the destination. Best for larger loads, machinery, high-value or time-critical cargo.
- Part Load (PTL) from Kolkata — pay only for the space your goods use. Best for smaller consignments, dealer stock and regular top-up shipments.
Not sure which one fits? Our guide on full truck load vs part load walks through the trade-offs, and truck types explained covers which vehicle size suits which load.
What Kolkata Businesses Ship With Us
HRC is a commercial goods transporter — we carry business cargo, not household shifting. Typical consignments include wholesale and distributor stock, FMCG and packaged food, pharmaceuticals and medical supplies, books and publications, industrial machinery and spare parts, construction and project materials. See real examples in our case studies: pharma supplies from Kolkata to Sikkim, book distribution across Siliguri and Sikkim, and solar panels from Mumbai to Kolkata.
Why Businesses Choose HRC as Their Kolkata Transporter
- Four decades on the same corridor. Founded in 1985 on the Kolkata–Siliguri route and run by the same family under Director Mani Agarwal — the routes, loading points and seasonal problems are familiar ground, not guesswork.
- Our own people at both ends. Branch offices in Siliguri and at the Bhutan border mean your consignment is handled by HRC staff, not passed between unknown agents.
- Proper GST billing. A registered transporter with a valid GSTIN, so your freight invoices support input tax credit — see how GST on goods transport works.
- Paperwork handled right. We help with e-way bills, including the Ship-To GSTIN rule in force since August 2026, and the documents for shipping goods into Bhutan.
- Clear quotes before dispatch. Rates depend on goods, weight/volume and vehicle — we give a written quote before anything moves.
