SIVASAGAR TO NORTH LAKHIMPUR
Sivasagar to North Lakhimpur means crossing the Brahmaputra, and the bridge you use decides the distance. Via Dibrugarh and Bogibeel Bridge it is roughly 230 to 260 km, about 6 to 8 hours by truck. We choose the crossing that suits your load and the season.

OVERVIEW
North Lakhimpur lies on the north bank of the Brahmaputra, while Sivasagar is on the south bank. On a map the two look close, with Majuli in between, but there is no direct road bridge across that stretch. A truck has to go round, either east over Bogibeel Bridge near Dibrugarh or west over Kolia Bhomora Setu near Tezpur.
For most moves the eastern route via Bogibeel is shorter: about 230 to 260 km, then west along NH-15 through Dhemaji. The western route through Kaziranga and Tezpur is much longer, roughly 360 to 400 km, but can be useful when the north bank road east of North Lakhimpur is affected by floods or repairs. Both figures are estimates, and we confirm the road before dispatch.
People moving this way include government staff and teachers posted to Lakhimpur district, families returning home, and traders sending stock across the river. We use our own vehicles for many jobs and verified partner trucks where needed.

WHAT WE MOVE
We pick the river crossing based on your load, the date and north bank road conditions.
Packing in Sivasagar, the cross-river drive and unloading in North Lakhimpur.
Shared truck space for students, single people or a few appliances.
Consignments for traders, with invoices and e-way bills kept with the goods.
Two-wheelers on the same truck; car carrying on request.
Arranged on request for a long cross-river trip.
ON THE ROAD
On the usual route the truck runs east from Sivasagar on NH-2 through Demow and Moranhat to Dibrugarh. The Demow to Moran stretch was in poor condition after the 2025 monsoon, so this first part can be slow. From Dibrugarh the road crosses the Brahmaputra on Bogibeel Bridge, the 4.94 km road and rail bridge that opened in December 2018 and carries NH-15 towards Dhemaji.
On the north bank the truck turns west along NH-15 through Dhemaji to North Lakhimpur. This highway crosses several rivers that come down from the Arunachal hills, and in the monsoon the north bank is prone to flooding. That is the main risk on this route, and it is why we check conditions before dispatch rather than on the way.
If the north bank road east of North Lakhimpur is badly affected, the other option is the long way round: NH-715 through Jorhat and Kaziranga, across Kolia Bhomora Setu to Tezpur, then east on NH-15 via Gohpur. It adds a lot of distance and the Kaziranga speed limits, so we use it only when it is the more reliable choice.
FERRY OR ROAD
Customers often ask whether goods can go the short way, across the river through Majuli. Here is how we see it:
For most people the road route via Bogibeel is the practical answer: one loading in Sivasagar, one unloading in North Lakhimpur, and no handling at the river.

FAQS
Usually Bogibeel Bridge near Dibrugarh, followed by NH-15 west through Dhemaji. It is the shorter road at roughly 230 to 260 km. The alternative is Kolia Bhomora Setu near Tezpur, which is far longer and used mainly when the north bank road is affected.
Via Bogibeel, often yes, if loading starts early. The drive is about 6 to 8 hours for a loaded truck. If we have to use the Kolia Bhomora route, or the household is large, delivery may move to the next day.
Full household moves go by road, because the Jorhat to Majuli bridge is not open yet and ferry crossings mean extra handling. For a few small items, ask us and we will suggest what makes sense.
Yes, the north bank along NH-15 is prone to flooding in the monsoon. We check the road before dispatch and, if needed, change the route or the date. You will hear from us on WhatsApp if anything changes.
Usually, yes. For a student room, a few appliances or a small batch of stock, sharing space on a truck costs less than booking a whole vehicle for the long cross-river run.
No permit is needed within Assam. Used household goods are exempt from the e-way bill; we prepare a packing list and consignment note. Business stock over Rs 50,000 needs an e-way bill from the sender.
