Moving in Rijswijk

Our removal services in Rijswijk

Rijswijk grew fast after the war, and you notice it when you move: many flats from the fifties to the seventies, plus family houses and new builds in RijswijkBuiten. During the survey, at home or by video call, we check whether there is a lift, how the stairs run and where the van can stand. All of it goes into your work order.

Storage

Local points to watch

What to keep in mind when moving in Rijswijk

In Rijswijk the work is mainly in the flats and in the rules for the street. We go through these four points with you during the survey, so there are no surprises on moving day.

Let us look at your flat

Walk-up flats without a lift

In the first years after the war, Rijswijk mainly built low walk-up blocks with a shared stairwell. Anything that will not fit down those stairs we bring out through a window or balcony with our moving lift, which keeps the stairwell clear for the neighbours.

A gallery on every third floor

In the gallery flats on the Prinses Beatrixlaan, only one in three floors has a gallery. Behind the front door there is another flight of stairs up or down, and we build that extra flight into the planning of people and time.

Van in a shopping area

If the removal van needs to enter a shopping area once, the municipality says no traffic exemption is needed; you arrange it with an email to the parking desk. We send that email, with the date and times of your move.

Apply well in advance

If the van has to stand where parking or stopping is not allowed, Rijswijk wants the application at least eight weeks ahead. If you are moving at short notice, we find a spot during the survey where no exemption is 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).

The container is loaded at your home and sealed in front of you, and nothing is moved to another vehicle on the way. Until you need it, it stays in a climate-controlled hall with 4K AI camera surveillance.

Our people

Moving is a profession, not a side job

On the Prinses Beatrixlaan a gallery flat has a gallery on only every third floor, so behind your front door there may be another flight of stairs up or down. Our movers plan for that extra flight. In a walk-up flat without a lift in Steenvoorde they set the moving lift at the window or balcony, which keeps the stairwell clear for your neighbours.

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 speak with 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.

Neighbourhoods

Moving in Rijswijk's neighbourhoods

From the old centre to the post-war flat estates and the new builds on the edge: for each neighbourhood you can read what homes you will find and what that means for your move. Below the neighbourhoods you will find links to nearby towns.

Oud-Rijswijk and centre

This is where the Herenstraat shopping street and the In de Bogaard shopping centre are. If the removal van needs to enter a shopping area, we notify the municipality's parking desk beforehand, as Rijswijk asks.

Oud-Rijswijk · Bomenbuurt · Welgelegen · Rembrandtkwartier

Steenvoorde

Largely built after the war, with walk-up flats, gallery flats and family houses side by side. In flats without a lift we use our moving lift; where there is a lift, you book it with the management or landlord, and we put that in the work order.

Overvoorde · Presidentenbuurt · Ministerbuurt · Stervoorde · Eikelenburg · Hoekpolder

Kleurenbuurt and around

The Prinses Beatrixlaan has gallery flats of up to twelve storeys, with a gallery on every third floor. We use the building lift and plan for the extra flight of stairs behind the front door.

Kleurenbuurt · Artiestenbuurt · Spoorzicht

Plaspoelpolder and Havenkwartier

Rijswijk's business district, with offices and commercial buildings. We plan an office move outside working hours or in phases; on request we agree the loading spot with the building manager, as an extra service.

Plaspoelpolder · Elsenburg · Havenkwartier

RijswijkBuiten

New homes on Rijswijk's last farmland. Around a handover you agree the moving date, the loading spot and use of the lift with the developer or owners' association, so you can move on the day you get the keys. On request we do that for you, as an extra service.

Practical matters

What needs arranging in Rijswijk

After the survey your account manager records in the work order what needs arranging at your old and your new address. On moving day the foreman knows where the van stands, which lift we use and what goes into which room.

Parking permit for your car

If you are moving to an address in Rijswijk with paid parking, you can apply once for a residents' moving permit, valid for six months in the zone of your new address. We point this out during the survey.

New address in a zero-emission zone

The centre and coast of The Hague and Delft's historic centre are zero-emission zones for vans and lorries. Our electric vehicles can enter without an exemption, so a new address there is no problem.

Coordinating with your landlord

If you rent a flat, you agree moving day with the landlord or building manager: use of the lift, protective panels in the hall and the time by which the home needs to be empty. On request we do that for you, as an extra service.

Assembly and handyman

At your old address we dismantle beds, wardrobes and tables, and at the new one we reassemble them. Our handyman then hangs lamps and pictures and connects your appliances.

Ask your question in the request

What does an average move in Rijswijk cost?+

We do not give an average price, because the cost of a move in Rijswijk depends mainly on your belongings, the floor you live on, whether there is a lift and how much we pack. Our hourly rate is transparent and shown in the quote beforehand. You receive that quote with no obligation after the survey, at home or by video call.

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

Ideally, book your removal company in Rijswijk eight weeks ahead, as that is how far our schedule runs. At short notice it often still works out, so get in touch if you want to move sooner. If the van needs an exemption, the municipality also wants that application well in advance.

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

Only if the van has to stand where parking or stopping is normally not allowed: then you need an exemption from the municipality of Rijswijk, and it has to be in well ahead of time. In streets with paid parking you also pay the normal parking fee. During the survey we check what your address needs; on request we handle the application for you, as an extra service.

How do you move a flat without a lift in Rijswijk?+

A flat without a lift is moved with our own electric moving lift, via a window or the balcony. It carries loads of up to 400 kg and reaches the 13th floor. Large wardrobes and sofas then do not have to go down the narrow stairwell, and your neighbours keep their stairs clear.

Can a removal van enter a shopping area in Rijswijk?+

Yes, a removal van may enter a shopping area in Rijswijk once without a traffic exemption. You arrange it with an email to the municipality's parking desk. We send that email for you, with the date and times of the move.

Which parking permit do I need when moving to Rijswijk?+

If you are moving to an address with paid parking, you can apply once for a residents' moving permit for your own car. It is valid for six months in the parking zone of your new address and you apply online through the digital parking desk. We look after whatever the removal van itself needs.

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

You can store your belongings with us, in a container we load at your home and seal while you watch. It stays in a climate-controlled hall until you want it at your new address. If you want to reach your things yourself, there is automated self storage in Katwijk.
