Lampang is a working northern town about ninety minutes south of Chiang Mai. It is known for horse carts, old teak houses and a slower pace, and it costs noticeably less than Chiang Mai to live in.
Shipments land at Laem Chabang and clear Thai customs there. The road leg is roughly 700 kilometres, about nine and a half hours. Lampang sits on the main northern rail line, which occasionally makes rail an option for the domestic leg where the road schedule is tight.

Lampang is a value choice. People who priced up Chiang Mai and looked ninety minutes further south, plus a long standing group who came for the old town and the teak houses. Arrivals here tend to be buying rather than renting, which usually means shipping a complete household.
The northern burning season affects Lampang as it does Chiang Mai, running February to April. Deliveries into the old quarter are easier outside the Saturday and Sunday walking street closures, so movers avoid weekends.
Traditional teak houses raised on posts are common in the old quarter, and the stairs decide what can go up. Newer estate housing on the ring road takes a normal delivery. Mention the house type when you enquire.
Areas the movers cover here: Mueang Lampang, Ko Kha, Hang Chat and Mae Tha. Full packing, a part packing service and storage at either end are priced on their own. Say up front if you want any of them.
Your destination is ลำปาง, romanised as Lampang. Also known locally as Khelang Nakhon, the old name.
Mueang Lampang, Ko Kha, Hang Chat and Mae Tha. Addresses outside those are still collected: the firm delivers across the province and smaller places are served off the nearest run.
Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Ayutthaya, Khon Kaen. Still choosing between two of these? Say so and ask for the difference in the quote.

We are not a removal company. Tell us what you are sending and where it is going, and one vetted moving company from the AGM Group network, agm.group, takes it from there. Their movers and packers survey the house, wrap the goods and load the container, and the same firm handles the relocation paperwork and the clearance in Thailand. That company holds FIDI FAIM certification. One firm, one quote, one point of contact, from the UK collection through to the shipping and the delivery.
