Ranchi to Patna is one of the shortest intercity routes in our fleet's regular service. At 330 km via NH-33, same-day delivery is standard for full-truck bookings. Morning pickup in Ranchi means evening delivery in Patna the same day. Here is exactly how it works and what it costs. If you know what you need, see our Ranchi to Patna service page for immediate booking.
The Route: NH-33 Ranchi to Patna
Standard route is NH-33 north through Hazaribagh, Bagodar, Nawada and into Patna via the Ganga Setu bridge. Total distance is 330 kilometres, driving time roughly 6-7 hours. With one 30-minute driver break, same-day delivery is easy from a 6-7 AM pickup. Alternative route via Bokaro and Gaya is 60 km longer but sometimes preferred to avoid Hazaribagh construction stretches.
Same-Day Delivery Timing Plan
6 AM: Packing crew arrives at Ranchi address. 8-9 AM: Loading begins. 11 AM: Truck departs Ranchi. 5-6 PM: Truck arrives Patna delivery address. 6-8 PM: Unloading and placement. 8-9 PM: Delivery receipt signed, family settled in. This timing works for 1-2BHK moves with full-truck booking. For 3BHK+ or afternoon-start moves, next-day delivery is standard.
Cost from Ranchi to Patna
Full-truck same-day: 1BHK ₹8,000 to ₹15,000. 2BHK ₹12,000 to ₹22,000. 3BHK ₹18,000 to ₹30,000. Part-load (2-3 day transit): 1BHK ₹6,000 to ₹12,000. 2BHK ₹10,000 to ₹18,000. Same-day pricing is 15-20 percent higher than standard due to expedited scheduling and dedicated vehicle. If you have a car to ship, factor in ₹6,000 to ₹12,000 extra depending on car size.
What to Prepare for Same-Day Delivery
Confirm delivery address access in Patna – lift availability, entry-pass for the building, parking space for a 14-17 foot truck. Have your contact person available at Patna between 5 and 9 PM. Pack an essentials box for personal use (medications, chargers, one change of clothes) that travels with you separately – do not include in the truck load.
Patna Delivery Areas We Cover
All of Patna proper plus Danapur, Phulwari Sharif, Khagaul, Bihta, Fatuha, and Rajgir. Some housing societies in Kankarbagh and Boring Road have vehicle-entry rules – we coordinate ahead. Older neighbourhoods (Kadamkuan, Chowk) may need smaller shuttle vehicles for final delivery which we handle without extra cost. See also our alternative Ranchi-Patna route page.
