From our branch on Bovendijk we move in Rotterdam and the Rijnmond region. In a city with high-rise buildings, narrow streets and busy traffic, the moving lift often comes along. We have our own moving trucks and lifts, so you arrange everything with us, with one dedicated account manager from the survey until after the last box.
Our branch for Rotterdam and the Rijnmond region is on Bovendijk. Moving in a city with high-rise buildings, narrow streets and busy traffic takes experience and tight planning. An apartment on the Maas, a town house in Hillegersberg or a home on a busy street in Delfshaven: every address gets its own approach.
The branch grew out of Jan Schut Verhuizingen and C. van Dijk Verhuizingen, which are now part of Oomen. For you that means movers who know the city, with electric trucks and our own moving lifts. You get one dedicated account manager and, on business days, a response to your request within an hour.
We know where in Rotterdam parking and loading and unloading need extra attention. During the survey we look at what your address needs, such as a moving lift or an exemption for the truck.
From an apartment on the Maas to a town house in Hillegersberg. Movers with a certificate of conduct (VOG) and VCA, modern trucks and as much or as little help as you want.
If you do not have the keys yet or are renovating first, you can store your belongings in between. They go into a sealed container at your home and straight to our climate-controlled storage.
Office, school, care location or government body: if you prefer, we move outside your peak hours, with a project manager who goes through the schedule department by department.
Not our own promises but external audits on quality, environment, safe working and information security. That is why schools, care institutions and municipalities move with us too.

The largest electric fleet among Dutch moving companies. In most cases we move with an electric truck, and we can enter low-emission and zero-emission zones without an exemption.
For high-rise and walk-up flats the lift comes along. You can also hire one separately, with or without an operator.
Our account manager surveys your belongings and puts everything in the quote, including a moving lift or storage. We keep you informed throughout the process.
From Rotterdam we move throughout the region, from Schiedam and Vlaardingen to Capelle aan den IJssel, Delft, Dordrecht and Gouda. During the survey we look at each address to see where the truck can stand and whether a moving lift is needed.

In the centre of Rotterdam an exemption or parking permit is sometimes needed for the truck. You apply for it with the municipality of Rotterdam. On request we do that for you and put up the signs, as an extra service.
High-rise and walk-up flats often call for a moving lift. We own them, so at the survey we determine which model fits and bring it along. You do not have to hire or reserve anything.
In strong wind a lift cannot always run safely. We keep an eye on the forecast and adjust the approach or the order of the day if needed. If anything changes, we call you in good time.
Then the key handover, the lift reservation and the loading times go through the landlord, the owners' association or the property manager. Tell us at the survey what has been agreed, and we put those times in your work order and plan the crew around them. You report your change of address to the municipality of Rotterdam; that is possible from four weeks before the move.
This is how we handle a move in Rotterdam, from a walk-up flat in Delfshaven to an office in the centre.
A narrow stairwell and a busy street with no free space for the truck. The moving lift goes up the front of the building, and on request we apply for the exemption in advance.
A family moves from a walk-up flat on the third floor in Delfshaven to a family home in Hillegersberg. The stairwell is too narrow for the sofa and the wardrobe, and during the day there is no free space in the street for a moving truck.
During the survey the account manager checks the route for every large piece of furniture. The family asks us to apply for the exemption for the truck with the municipality of Rotterdam; we do that as an extra service and put up the signs in good time. On moving day the electric moving lift goes up the front of the building. Whatever cannot travel in one piece, we dismantle and reassemble in Hillegersberg.
The household travels to the new address in one trip, and the furniture is back together before the movers leave.
In a residential tower the goods lift sets the pace. The lift and the loading and unloading times are fixed in advance, and the electric truck may enter the zero-emission zone.
A couple moves to an apartment high up in a residential tower on the Maas. Everything has to go up in the goods lift, which the residents share. The tower is in Rotterdam's zero-emission zone.
During the survey the account manager discusses what needs to be arranged with the building manager: reserving the goods lift and the times for loading and unloading. The couple arranges that themselves; on request we handle the coordination, as an extra service. We come with an electric truck, which may enter the zero-emission zone without an exemption.
The truck is at the loading bay at the agreed time and the lift is reserved, so unloading runs through in one go.
An office that has to be up and running again on Monday. A project manager writes a plan of action per department, and we move in phases, in the evening and at the weekend.
An office in the centre of Rotterdam moves to other premises in the city. The organisation cannot miss a working day: on Monday morning everyone has to be able to work at the new location.
A project manager surveys both premises department by department and writes a plan of action with the order, the moving codes and who does what. Every workstation gets a code that matches a spot on the floor plan of the new premises. We pack archives and IT equipment separately. We move in phases, in the evening and at the weekend.
On Monday morning the workstations are set up according to the floor plan. We collect the crates later.
