Urgent move: moving fast when it cannot wait

An urgent move is a move that has to take place within a few days, for example after a separation, with a sudden admission to a care home or when your home has to be vacated unexpectedly. We work with a large team and our own trucks and moving lifts. That is why we can in many cases start within 24 to 48 hours, including evenings and weekends. Call us or fill in the form; on business days you get a response within an hour.

Situations

When do you need an urgent move?

These are the situations for which people call us most often at short notice.

Separation or break-up

We move your part of the household to your new address or into storage.

Family care

When you need to live closer to a family member, or when they move in with you.

Your home has to be vacated unexpectedly

With a terminated lease, an eviction or a sale that completes sooner than planned.

New job or new home

With a transfer, or when a home becomes available to you immediately.

Arranged quickly

How fast can you move at short notice?

In many cases we can start within 24 to 48 hours. Our schedule normally runs about eight weeks ahead, but there is often still room at short notice. Call as soon as you know you have to move, and we will look straight away at what is possible.

Evenings and weekends

We also move outside normal working hours, for example in the evening or at the weekend.

Our own trucks and lifts

Our own trucks and 18 moving lifts of our own, from our branches in Katwijk, Rotterdam and Tilburg.

Packing included

Our movers can also pack, dismantle and assemble, so that you do not have to do that in a few days.

How it works

How an urgent move works

From the first call to moving day in four steps.

1

Call or fill in the form

Tell us when you have to move and what needs to come along. On business days you get a response within an hour.

2

Survey at short notice

Your account manager looks at your belongings, at your home or by video call, and prepares the quote.

3

Moving day

The movers and their foreman load, transport and put everything in its place. We arrange packing and a moving lift as well if needed.

4

Storage or clearing

What cannot go to the new address yet goes into storage. If you wish, we hand over the old home empty and swept clean.

Personal guidance

Even when it has to be fast: one dedicated account manager

An urgent move often comes at a time when a lot is already going on. That is why you have one account manager from the first contact, who makes the schedule and stays reachable until after the last box. Our movers have a VOG and VCA and handle your situation discreetly.

  • You only have to explain your situation once.
  • The agreements are in the work order, so that everyone knows what needs to be done.
  • Even at short notice we drive electric where possible, with 27 electric vehicles.
