Moving in Leidschendam

Our removal services in Leidschendam and Stompwijk

Leidschendam has an old centre on the Vliet, large sixties housing blocks and eighties family neighbourhoods, with the polder village of Stompwijk across the water. Each of those asks something different of a move. During the survey, at home or by video call, we record in the work order what your address needs.

Local points to watch

What to keep in mind when moving in Leidschendam

Water, bridges and large housing blocks shape how a move goes in Leidschendam. We go through these four points with you during the survey, together with what we do about them so they do not hold up moving day.

Have your address checked

Narrow bridges at the lock

The lift bridges over the lock in the Damcentrum are narrow, and the area around the lock is a protected village conservation area. We plan a route that keeps the removal van off those bridges and check during the survey which side of the Vliet is best for loading.

Large housing blocks

De Heuvel and Prinsenhof consist of large housing blocks from the sixties. If there is no lift, or it is too small for your wardrobe or sofa, we bring our moving lift, which reaches the 13th floor.

Small bridges in Stompwijk

Along the canal in Stompwijk there are many small swing and lift bridges, and not every house can be reached by a large van. During the survey we check where the van can stand and how long the carrying route will be.

Exemptions take time

If the van has to stand where parking or stopping is not allowed, an exemption is needed. The municipality asks for an urgent reason and decides within six weeks, so submit the application in good time; on request we do that straight after the survey, as an extra service.

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 close to Leidschendam, in Katwijk

It goes into a container at your home, is sealed in front of you, is not transferred on the way and is then kept in our climate-controlled halls with 4K AI camera surveillance.

Our people

Moving is a trade, not a side job

The lift bridges at the lock in the Damcentrum are narrow, so our movers drive round them and load as close to your door as they can. Along the canal in Stompwijk a large van can't pull up at every house. Then the carrying route gets longer and they come with enough people.

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 and villages

Moving in Leidschendam's neighbourhoods

From the old centre on the Vliet to the family neighbourhoods on the edge and the polder village of Stompwijk: for each part you can read what homes you will find and what that means for your move. The nearby towns are linked further down.

€ 125,000insured in transit, with no excess400 kgcarried by our moving lifts per load

Damcentrum and Leidschendam-Zuid

The old centre around the lock, with shops on the Damplein and residential streets around it. We load as close to your door as we can without crossing the lock bridges, and time the move around the shops.

Damcentrum · Leidschendam-Zuid · Zeeheldenwijk · Klein Plaspoelpolder

De Heuvel and Prinsenhof

Large housing blocks from the sixties, mostly four to five storeys high, with some high-rise. We book the building lift through the management or bring our own moving lift.

De Heuvel · Prinsenhof · Park Veursehout · Leidsenhage

't Lien and De Rietvink

Built from 1980 onwards, with many family houses as well as flats. In the houses it comes down to the stairs and the attic: we take large wardrobes apart or bring them out through the window by lift.

't Lien · De Rietvink · Verzetsheldenwijk · Raadhuiskwartier

De Zijde and Duivenvoorde

A mix of family houses and flats on the north side of Leidschendam. During the survey we decide for each home whether furniture fits up the stairs; for apartments you agree the loading spot with the owners' association, and we put that in the work order.

De Zijde · Duivenvoorde · Amstelwijk

Stompwijk

The polder village across the Vliet, with houses along the canal and many small bridges. We check in advance whether the van can reach your house, and otherwise plan a longer carrying route with enough people.

Practical matters

What we arrange for you in Leidschendam

For the survey we come to your home. Your account manager records what we agree in the work order, from the van's route to the room where each wardrobe goes.

Leidschenveen is not Leidschendam

Leidschenveen belongs to the municipality of The Hague, not to Leidschendam-Voorburg. If you are moving there or from there, The Hague's parking rules apply, and we build them into the planning.

Moving somewhere smaller

If you are moving from a family house to an apartment, our seniors' removal service helps with packing, dismantling and furnishing your new home. The work order lists, room by room, what comes along and where it goes.

Hiring the moving lift

If you are doing most of the move yourself, you can also hire our electric moving lift on its own, with or without an operator. The € 125,000 cover only applies while our movers transport your things, not when you load yourself.

Handyman after the move

After moving day our handyman hangs lamps, curtain rails and pictures and connects appliances. Your new home in Leidschendam is then quickly liveable, without you having to get the drill out.

Ask your question in the request

What does a moving day in Leidschendam cost?+

A moving day in Leidschendam costs the hourly rate multiplied by the hours and movers needed. How many hours depends on your belongings, the floors, the carrying route and whether the moving lift comes along. So we do not give a fixed day price; the quote after the survey shows exactly what the amount is made up of.

How far ahead should I book a removal company in Leidschendam?+

Ideally, book your removal company in Leidschendam eight weeks ahead, as that is how far our schedule runs. If your date is earlier, ask anyway: at short notice there is often still room. If an exemption from a parking or stopping ban is needed, allow for the six weeks the municipality may take.

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

Usually not, because parking in Leidschendam is free or allowed with a parking disc in a blue zone. If the van has to stand where parking or stopping is not allowed, an exemption is needed, and in a blue zone a temporary parking exemption. On request we can apply for both on your behalf, as an extra service.

Can you move a flat in De Heuvel or Prinsenhof?+

Yes, we move flats in De Heuvel and Prinsenhof using the building lift or our own electric moving lift. Ours reaches the 13th floor and carries loads of up to 400 kg. During the survey we check whether your wardrobe and sofa fit in the building lift, and book it through the management if needed.

Do you also move people in Stompwijk?+

Yes, we move people in and to Stompwijk. Because many houses along the canal are reached over small bridges, we check during the survey where the van can safely stand and how long the carrying route will be. We then plan the number of movers accordingly.

Is Leidschenveen the same as Leidschendam?+

No, Leidschenveen is a neighbourhood of The Hague, in the Leidschenveen-Ypenburg district, and is not part of the municipality of Leidschendam-Voorburg. For your move this means The Hague's rules apply there: movers may park free of charge during the move but cannot reserve a space. We take that into account in the planning.

Where can I store my belongings when moving in Leidschendam?+

You can store your belongings with us in a container that is loaded at your home and sealed in front of you. It stays in our climate-controlled halls until you want it back. If you want to reach your things yourself, our automated self storage is in Katwijk, close to Leidschendam.
