Moving company Heemstede

As a moving company in Heemstede, we move you out of a 1930s house, a villa or a flat to your new address, within the village or further afield. Heemstede is green, and you notice that on moving day: trees and hedges decide where the van can park and whether a moving lift fits against your facade. We check this during the survey, so the right equipment comes along.

✓Trees and hedges: we check in advance whether the moving lift fits between them or we use the stairs.
✓Shared lift in a flat: we protect hallways and doors; on request we book the lift with the owners' association, as an extra service.
✓Account manager: one point of contact from the survey until after the last box.
✓VCA and VOG: our movers hold VCA certification and a certificate of conduct, and work under a foreman.

Heemstede, house by house

Moving in Heemstede, from family homes to practices

Heemstede has 1930s houses on winding streets, villas on leafy lanes, gallery flats in the Provinciënwijk and taller blocks in the Geleerdenwijk. Each asks for a different approach: in one it is all about a steep staircase, in another about a lift you share with the neighbours. We plan the crew and equipment for each address and record it in your work order.

Storage

Storage when your new home is not ready

If your new home is being renovated first or the keys come later than planned, your belongings go into a container at your house. It is sealed in front of you and stays in our climate-controlled facility until you need it.

What makes a move in Heemstede tricky

Heemstede has plenty of greenery, narrow stairs in older homes and flats with shared facilities. None of these are big obstacles, but they decide how many movers we send and which equipment comes along. That is why we look at them during the survey.

Book a survey

A tree by the facade

A moving lift stands at an angle against the facade. A large tree, a tall hedge or a protruding dormer can get in the way. We assess this on site, so we do not have to switch from lift to stairs halfway through the day.

Steep stairs in 1930s houses

Many homes from the 1920s and 1930s have a narrow, steep staircase. We often take beds and wardrobes apart there, or lower them through the window with our moving lift.

A lift you share

In the gallery flats of the Provinciënwijk and the taller blocks in the Geleerdenwijk, residents share lifts and hallways. We protect walls and doors. You agree with the owners' association or building manager when you can use the lift; on request we take that over from you, as an extra service.

Busy shops and station

Around the Binnenweg, the Raadhuisstraat and Heemstede-Aerdenhout station, parking is limited and partly paid or permit-only. A spot for the van close to your door keeps the carrying distance short. You arrange it yourself beforehand; on request we do that, as an extra service.

Independently certified

Your belongings sealed and stored until Heemstede is ready

If your new home in Heemstede needs work first, or there is a gap between two key dates, we store your belongings. They go into a container at your house, which is sealed in front of you and not reloaded on the way. Our facilities are automated and climate-controlled, with more than 1,000 containers of our own and 4K AI camera surveillance. If you would rather keep the container at your own address, mobile storage makes that possible.

Our people

Moving is a trade, not a side job

In Heemstede, trees and hedges decide whether the moving lift fits against your facade. That is checked at the survey, so on the day our movers don't have to switch to the stairs halfway through. If those stairs are narrow and steep, as in many 1930s houses, they often take your bed and wardrobe apart.

An experienced foreman on your moving day

The foreman directs the movers and knows the survey and the work order, so you don't have to explain anything twice.

One dedicated account manager from start to finish

From the survey until after the last box, you talk to the same person, who knows your situation and your agreements.

Everyone VCA-certified and holding a Certificate of Conduct (VOG)

Our movers work to the VCA standard for safe working and hold a VOG (Dutch certificate of conduct). After all, they come into your home and among your belongings.

Heemstede is small, but the homes differ a lot from one neighbourhood to the next. Below you can see what we come across in each part of the village and what it means for your moving day.

Centrum and Oude Dorp

1930s houses on winding streets, with the shops of the Binnenweg and Raadhuisstraat close by. Here it is all about finding a spot for the van and stairs that are narrower than your sofa.

Centrum · Oude Dorp · Indische buurt · Schildersbuurt · Berkenrode

Geleerdenwijk, Provinciënwijk and Rivierenwijk

Family homes with gardens, gallery flats in the Provinciënwijk and taller blocks along the Herenweg. In a flat we book the lift; at a house with a garden we check whether the lift works better at the back.

Heemstede-Zuid

De Glip, with family homes built from the 1950s onwards, and the areas along the Glipper Dreef and the Manpad. The van can usually park at the door here, so the work is mostly in the volume of your belongings.

How it works

Practical matters for your move in Heemstede

For a move in Heemstede, a few things need arranging with the municipality and a few with your owners' association or landlord. We take that work off your hands and discuss during the survey what your old and new address need.

Using the public road

If the van or lift has to stand on the public road for a while, you need permission from the municipality of Heemstede. You apply for it yourself; on request we do that and put out the signs on moving day, as an extra service.

Parking near the station

In the streets around Heemstede-Aerdenhout station, parking is paid or permit-only. Make sure there is space for the van on moving day; on request we arrange that for you, as an extra service.

Downsizing

If you are moving from a family home to an apartment, we help you decide what comes along. With our senior move service we pack, place furniture in its new spot, and our handyman hangs your lamps and pictures.

Matching two dates

If you get the keys to your new home later than you have to leave the old one, we plan the move in two trips with storage in between. Your account manager puts both trips in one quote.

Frequently asked questions about moving in Heemstede

These are the things we explain most often about moving in Heemstede. If something is missing, call 088 321 99 00 or add your question to the form.

Ask your question in the request

What do I pay on average for a move in Heemstede?+

An average price tells you little, because the cost mostly depends on your belongings, the number of movers and how easy both addresses are to reach. You pay a transparent hourly rate, listed in the quote. In Heemstede, a steep staircase, a lift in a block of flats or a moving lift between trees all count. After the survey your account manager sends a no-obligation quote.

Can a move within Heemstede be done in one day?+

That mainly depends on your belongings and how much we pack for you, because driving times within Heemstede or to Haarlem and Bennebroek are short. During the survey we estimate the hours and the number of movers. If it does not fit in one day, we might pack a day earlier, and that goes into your work order.

Do I need permission for the removal van or lift in Heemstede?+

Sometimes: if the van or lift stands on the public road for a while, you need permission from the municipality of Heemstede. Whether that applies to your address depends on the street, the parking rules and whether there is a driveway. We check it during the survey and make the application with you.

Will a moving lift fit between the trees on my street?+

That depends on where the tree stands, and we assess it on site during the survey. The lift stands at an angle against the facade and needs room on the pavement or road; a tree, hedge or dormer can block it. If it does not fit, we use the stairs, take furniture apart or pick a different window.

How do you move in a block of flats with a shared lift?+

We protect walls, doors and the lift car. You book the lift in advance yourself with the owners' association or building manager; on request we do that, as an extra service. If the lift is too small for a wardrobe or sofa, we take it apart or lower it from the balcony with our moving lift, which reaches the 13th floor and carries up to 400 kg.

When should I start planning my Heemstede move?+

Aim for eight weeks ahead, since that is how far our planning runs; at short notice there is often still room. Booking early also leaves time to get permission from the municipality if the van has to stand on the public road. If you already have a date, let us know straight away.

Am I insured if I move some things myself?+

Only what our movers transport is insured, up to € 125,000 with no excess. Boxes or fragile items you take in your own car are not covered. If you want to be sure something is covered, let us pack and carry it, and mention it during the survey.
