Moving in Leiderdorp

Moving in and around Leiderdorp

In Leiderdorp we move people between neighbourhoods from very different decades: flats and terraced houses from the 1960s and 1970s, family homes from the 1980s and 1990s and, soon, new builds at De Baanderij. Staying nearby, across the river in Leiden for example? Then we do both addresses in one day. Your account manager looks at both during the survey.

Home removals in Leiderdorp

From a flat in Ouderzorg to a terraced house in the Voorhof, we check the stairs, your floor and where the van can stand. Living high up without a lift? Then we use the moving lift. It all goes into your work order.

Different in every area

What we plan for when moving in Leiderdorp

Leiderdorp has no car-free centre with delivery hours, but your address still shapes moving day: mostly the age of your neighbourhood and where the van is allowed to stand.

Book a survey in Leiderdorp

Flats from the 1960s

In Ouderzorg there are many 1960s and 1970s flats alongside terraced houses. If you live on a higher floor without a lift, we bring the sofa and wardrobes in through the balcony or window with the moving lift.

Steep stairs in terraced houses

In the terraced houses of the Voorhof and the Buitenhof, a box-spring bed or tall wardrobe often won't make it up the stairs. We then take it apart or lift it in through the window.

Blue parking zones

Parts of Leiderdorp have a blue zone where parking time is limited. If the removal van stays there longer, you need an exemption from the municipality. You apply for it yourself, or we do so on request as an extra service.

New builds at De Baanderij

Over the coming years De Baanderij is changing from a business park into a mixed residential and work area. If you move into a new build there, expect construction traffic and a handover date that can shift. We plan with room to spare and store your belongings if needed.

Independently certified

Four certifications, externally audited every year

Every year Kiwa audits us on quality (ISO 9001), the environment (ISO 14001), safe working (VCA) and information security (ISO 27001).

Storage until your Leiderdorp home is ready

We then load everything into a container at your door, seal it while you watch and drive it away without reloading. Until your new home is ready, it stays in our climate-controlled hall in Katwijk. Mobile storage is possible too: the container comes to your address.

Our people

Moving is a trade, not a side job

High up in a flat without a lift in Ouderzorg, our movers set up the moving lift, and your sofa and wardrobes then go via the balcony or the window. In a terraced house in the Voorhof or the Buitenhof a tall wardrobe often won't go up the stairs; they take it apart first.

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 with a 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.

Neighbourhoods in Leiderdorp

How we move in Leiderdorp's neighbourhoods

Leiderdorp's neighbourhoods were built in stages, and you notice that on moving day. A 1960s flat asks for something different from a 1990s family home. Here is how we handle each one.

€ 125,000insured in transit, with no excess400 kglifted by our moving lift, up to the 13th floor

Ouderzorg, Vogelwijk and De Schansen

Neighbourhoods from the 1960s, with flats next to rows of family homes. For a flat, we use the moving lift for anything that won't fit through the entrance; on request we book the lift or stairwell with the owners' association, as an extra service.

Ouderzorg · Vogelwijk · Schansen en Dreven · Zijlkwartier

Voorhof, Binnenhof and Winkelhof

Built from the 1970s onwards, around the Winkelhof shopping centre, with many terraced houses and flats. During the survey we check whether furniture fits up the stairs and where the van can park close to your door.

Voorhof · Binnenhof · Winkelhof · Elisabethhof

Buitenhof and Leyhof

Family homes from the 1980s and 1990s, often with a loft and a shed. We list those separately in the work order, so they aren't left for the end of the day.

Buitenhof-Oost · Buitenhof-West · Leyhof · Boterhuispolder · Driegatenbrug

Oranjewijk and Doeskwartier

The older part along the Oude Rijn, including the 1950s Oranjewijk. During the survey we check how close the van can get to your door and what fits up the stairs, and we put that in the work order.

Oranjewijk · Doeskwartier · Kerkwijk · 't Heerlijk Recht

De Baanderij

A business park that is becoming a mixed residential and work area. For a company staying or leaving, we draw up a moving plan; for new residents, we match moving day to the handover and the building site.

Practical matters

What needs arranging in Leiderdorp

Besides the move itself, a few things often come with a move in Leiderdorp. Your account manager records them in the work order, so moving day holds no surprises.

Booking the lift with the VvE

If you live in a flat in Ouderzorg or the Voorhof, you book the lift or stairwell through the owners' association (VvE) or building manager; on request we do that for you, as an extra service. We cover the gallery, hall and door frames before the first box goes out.

Across the Rhine to the old centre

If you are heading for Leiden's old centre, we load in Leiderdorp so that we unload within Leiden's delivery hours. Our electric vehicles are allowed into the zero-emission zone, so you don't need to arrange anything for that.

Downsizing to a flat

When you move somewhere smaller, we look together at what fits in the new home. Anything you're not ready to part with can go into storage. For a senior move, we pack everything and set up the new home again.

Hire the moving lift

If you are moving yourself but don't want to carry the sofa down the stairwell, hire our electric moving lift, with or without an operator. It reaches up to the 13th floor and carries up to 400 kg.

Frequently asked questions about moving in Leiderdorp

These are the questions we hear most often in Leiderdorp. Missing something? Call 088 321 99 00 and your account manager will help.

Ask your question in the request

How much does a moving company in Leiderdorp cost?+

The cost of a move in Leiderdorp depends on how much you are taking, which floor you live on, whether a moving lift is needed and which extra services you choose. Our hourly rate is transparent and set out in advance. You get the quote after a survey at your home or by video.

What does a Leiderdorp move cost including packing?+

Packing adds hours but saves you days of work. How much depends on what we pack: just the kitchen and fragile items, or everything. We include that in the survey and the quote. We use reusable packing materials and supply moving boxes.

Do I need an exemption for the removal van in Leiderdorp?+

Usually not, but you do in a blue zone if the van stays longer than allowed. The municipality of Leiderdorp can then grant an exemption. If the van has to stand on the pavement or a street has to be partly closed, an exemption is needed too. We check your address during the survey and, on request, apply for the exemption as an extra service.

How far ahead should I book movers in Leiderdorp?+

Book around eight weeks ahead if you are tied to a fixed date, for example the handover at the notary. That is how far ahead our schedule runs, though there is often still room at short notice. The end of the month is the busiest time, so that is where booking early pays off most.

Can you move me from Leiderdorp into a city centre with delivery hours?+

Yes. In Leiden's car-free centre, loading and unloading is allowed from Monday to Saturday between 4.30 and 11.00, so we start early in Leiderdorp. The zero-emission zone is no issue for us, because our vehicles are electric. If unloading takes longer, a day exemption is needed, which we apply for on request.

Is Verkroost Verhuizingen from Leiderdorp now part of Oomen?+

Yes. Verkroost Verhuizingen, a family business that had been moving people since 1900 with branches in Leiderdorp and Leiden, has been part of Oomen Movers & Storage since 2022. Its experience carries on at Oomen, together with our electric vehicles, our own storage and certifications audited every year by Kiwa.
