Send a parcel from Jodhpur to Ahmedabad. We pick up free.
Roughly 470 kilometres south — a fast lane. Surface delivery is 1–2 working days; express, booked before 11 AM, often lands the same evening at city pin codes. Pickup from your Jodhpur address (Sardar Bazaar, Sojati Gate, Sardarpura, Paota, Chopasni, Boranada, Salawas) is free for parcels of 5 kg or more.
Pickup in Jodhpur, road run via Pali and Palanpur to Ahmedabad.
Pickup, Jodhpur.
Within 60–90 minutes of your call. We bring tape, bubble wrap and a luggage scale to your address (Sardar Bazaar, Sojati Gate, Sardarpura, Paota, Chopasni, Boranada or Salawas) and seal at the door. Antique-furniture-replica B2B crates from Salawas / Boranada workshops are wrapped in-shed before they leave.
Pali → Palanpur trunk.
Same-evening handover to DTDC's Jodhpur facility. Direct road movement via Pali → Palanpur → Ahmedabad overnight; this is one of the shorter trunks out of Jodhpur.
Ahmedabad delivery.
Sortation at the Ahmedabad DTDC facility, then last-mile across CG Road, Law Garden, Maninagar, Manek Chowk, Ratan Pole, Sarkhej, SG Highway and Bopal. Express bookings before 10 AM frequently make it to CG Road / Maninagar / Ranip by the same evening.
POD on WhatsApp.
Once delivered, we forward the proof of delivery — signature image and stamp — on WhatsApp the same hour.

Antique-replica B2B, Manek Chowk Marwari documents, IIM-A care, leather.
Antique-furniture-replica B2B
The dominant lane. Salawas and Boranada workshops ship period-replica almirahs, jharokhas, carved panels and low chests to Ahmedabad villa-imports — CG Road, Law Garden, Maninagar interior-designer trade. The Patel-Gujarati villa-import market is a major Jodhpur-replica buyer; expect crated dispatches, surface routing, single GST invoice.
Papier-mâché & lacquerware
Hand-painted papier-mâché trays, lacquerware boxes and decorative pieces to Ahmedabad design boutiques and gift trade. Light, low-volume; usually express on quick-turn cycles.
IIM-A / NID / NIRMA care
Sealed-cover originals, transcripts, project paperwork and student care to IIM-Ahmedabad (Vastrapur), NID Ahmedabad (Paldi) and NIRMA. Books, sealed dry namkeen, festival outfits, warm clothes — surface routing for non-urgent loads, express for time-bound paperwork.
Leather goods
Jodhpur-leather mojaris, bags and finished pieces to Ahmedabad showrooms — Jodhpur-leather and Gujarati-leather are complementary trades, with bulk sample exchanges between manufacturers.
Manek Chowk / Ratan Pole docs
Marwari business documents — sealed-cover originals, ledgers, signed contracts — to Ahmedabad's Manek Chowk and Ratan Pole jewellery and trade district. Note: precious-metal pieces and loose stones cannot ship via the standard network; non-precious silverwork samples are fine.
Wedding shipments
Gujarati–Marwari weddings cross the lane both ways — gift consolidation, decor returns, lehenga returns, photographer drives. Bulk pickup over an afternoon, single GST invoice.
A short, real list.
DTDC (and every air/road network) prohibits these. Items most often misjudged on the Jodhpur → Ahmedabad lane:
Banned outright
- Liquids of any kind — perfumes, attars, oils, gels, hand sanitiser
- Aerosols and pressurised cans
- Cosmetics, nail polish, fragrance samples
- Flammable solids and matches
- Currency notes, gold and silver bullion
- Lithium batteries above 100 Wh on the air leg
Lane-specific watch-outs
- Loose diamonds and precious stones — even with a Manek Chowk dealer at the other end, precious-stone consignments are not accepted on the standard network. Non-precious sample sets only.
- Gold or precious-metal jewellery — silverwork samples (non-precious) are fine; finished precious-metal pieces are not.
- Packed pickle / ghee / homemade theplas with chutney — semi-liquids are restricted; do not pack them with regular parcels.
- Loose handmade incense — paste-based agarbatti is treated as flammable solid.
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. On this lane scans typically update twice: pickup-scan in Jodhpur the same evening, and delivery-scan in Ahmedabad next-day forenoon.
Specific to Jodhpur → Ahmedabad.
If I book before 10 AM, can my parcel reach a CG Road or Maninagar address by evening?
Often, yes. CG Road, Maninagar, Ranip, Bopal, Prahlad Nagar and most 380xxx city pin codes are typical same-day-evening deliveries on express when the booking is locked before 10 AM. We can confirm against your specific pin code at the time of booking — Gandhinagar / 382xxx suburbs add a few hours and may slip to next morning.
I'm shipping non-precious silverwork samples to a Manek Chowk / Ratan Pole dealer — what docs?
Carry a commercial invoice describing the contents as non-precious silverwork or brass samples with declared values, sender KYC (PAN or Aadhaar), and the recipient GSTIN. For sample sets above a few thousand rupees, ask us about declared-value cover before pickup — the standard network liability cap is limited. Loose diamonds, precious stones and gold pieces, even as samples, cannot move on this network.
Can I run a recurring weekly bulk slot for IIM-A student-parents?
Yes. We can fix a weekday afternoon pickup at your Jodhpur address (Sardar Bazaar / Sardarpura / Chopasni) for a recurring student care load — books, dry namkeen, packaged dry mithai, festival outfits. 35 kg+ books at the bulk rate of ₹120/kg with a single GST invoice; smaller weekly cartons run at the standard rate. The load reaches the IIM-A / Vastrapur address in 1–2 working days on surface.
