Send a parcel from Bikaner to Rajkot. We pick up free.
Roughly 440 kilometres south on the short Rajasthan-Gujarat trunk via Palanpur, 1–2 working days on surface — same-evening or next-morning if you book express before 10 AM. Pickup from your Bikaner address is free for parcels of 5 kg or more.
Pickup in Bikaner, Palanpur-Ahmedabad transit, last-mile across Saurashtra.
Pickup, Bikaner.
Within 60–90 minutes of your call. We bring tape, bubble wrap and a luggage scale; the parcel is sealed at your address — KEM Road, Cottage Industries Bazaar, Jaynarayan Vyas Colony, Sadul Ganj, Pawanpuri or the Defense Cantonment area.
Hub transit.
Same-evening handover to DTDC's Bikaner facility, then overnight road run via Palanpur and the Ahmedabad hub. This is one of the shorter Bikaner-out trunk lanes — Saurashtra is geographically close.

Onward leg from Ahmedabad to DTDC Rajkot, sortation, and last-mile to Race Course Ring Road, Kalavad Road, Sadar Bazaar, University Road or anywhere across the city — typically next working day on surface.
POD on WhatsApp.

Bhujia B2B, Patel-diaspora gateway, Marwari trade documents.
Bikaneri-bhujia & papad B2B (Saurashtra network)
Sealed-pack Bikaneri bhujia, papad and namkeen heading to Rajkot's Saurashtra-Indian-grocery wholesale network — Sadar Bazaar, Race Course retail, Kalavad Road and the wider Saurashtra distribution chain. Domestic-grade only with manufacturer-sealed packaging and HSN-tagged commercial invoice. The short transit makes this one of the better Bikaner-out lanes for B2B food.
Patel-diaspora gateway parcels
A large share of Bikaner-side parcels destined for UK / US / East-African Patel families are routed via a Rajkot relative who consolidates and ships abroad. AWB ends at Rajkot — we deliver to the family address there. The international leg is then their responsibility.
Marwari business documents (Sadar Bazaar / Race Course Road)
Bikaner-Marwari merchant houses have trade ties with Rajkot's Sadar Bazaar and Race Course Road wholesale clusters. Signed contracts, tender papers, GST notices, family-firm originals on express.
Saurashtra wedding shipments
Gujarati-Marwari weddings on the Bikaner-Rajkot axis bring big bulk lanes — outfits, return-gift consolidation, photographer hard drives, decor returns. Single-afternoon bulk pickup, one GST invoice.
Defense-cantonment family parcels
Bikaner has a substantial Indian Army cantonment presence; veteran families ship sealed-cover paperwork and family parcels to Saurashtra-side relatives. We handle the sealed-cover paperwork on express.
Household relocations
Families moving within the Bikaner-Saurashtra circuit. Multi-box surface bookings — appliances (no compressors), clothing, kitchenware, books, packed in one go.
A short, real list.
DTDC (and every air-network courier) prohibits these. Items most often misjudged on the Bikaner → Rajkot lane:
Banned outright
- Liquids of any kind — perfumes, attars, oils, gels, hand sanitiser
- Gold-trade samples / gold bullion (Rajkot is India's gold-jewellery capital — precious-metal pieces cannot ship)
- Aerosols and pressurised cans
- Ceramic-glaze chemicals and industrial solvents (Morbi-belt request that often arrives by mistake)
- Edible oils — groundnut, mustard, sesame
- Lithium batteries above 100 Wh on the air leg
Common Bikaner → Rajkot misjudgements
- Bhujia/papad in loose paper packaging — sealed manufacturer packaging with batch and HSN code is required for B2B grocery shipping.
- Gold-jewellery samples — even small, even insured: precious-metal pieces are banned outright.
- Bikaneri ghee, achaar or sweets — semi-liquid; do not pack with regular parcels. Sealed dry items only.
- Camel-leather oil treatments — small bottles of leather conditioner are oils. Treated leather goods are fine.
AWB on WhatsApp. Track on dtdc.in. POD when it lands.
The moment the parcel is booked into DTDC, we send you the AWB number on WhatsApp. Type it into the public tracker at dtdc.in any time. When delivery happens we forward the POD — signed slip or photo — within the hour. For Sadar Bazaar / Race Course Road wholesale-shop B2B, we mark the shop name + GST number on the AWB so the receiver can reconcile inbound stock.
Specific to Bikaner → Rajkot.
Can I get same-evening delivery to Race Course or Kalavad Road?
Yes, on express, and only if you book before 10 AM. Bikaner-Rajkot is one of the shorter Bikaner-out trunks — express moves on the air leg via the Ahmedabad hub the same day, with last-mile to Race Course Ring Road, Kalavad Road or University Road by evening. Surface is overnight at the earliest — typically next working day. The short geographic distance makes this lane good for time-sensitive bookings.
We're a Bikaneri-bhujia manufacturer with weekly stock to Sadar Bazaar / Saurashtra-grocery shops — how does the routine work?
Standard B2B flow on this lane. We assign a fixed pickup day from your factory or godown — usually Tuesday or Friday — and the consignment goes on surface (1–2 days), so a Tuesday pickup lands Wednesday or Thursday morning at the destination shop. Sealed manufacturer packaging with batch numbers, HSN-tagged commercial invoice, GST on invoice. Volume gets a contract rate sheet.
How does Patel-diaspora gateway shipping work — when the parcel finally goes to the UK or USA?
Common pattern: Bikaner-side items are routed through a Rajkot Patel-family member who consolidates and arranges onward international shipping. From our side, the AWB ends at Rajkot — we deliver to the family address there. The international leg is then their responsibility (or a separate booking, if you'd like us to handle Bikaner → UK / USA directly). Note: gold and edible oils cannot ship even on the domestic leg.
