Moving in Voorburg

Our removal services in Voorburg

In Voorburg the work varies a lot by neighbourhood. Voorburg-West is mostly pre-war houses with their own front door, while Voorburg-Noord and Bovenveen have many walk-up and post-war flats. During the survey, at home or by video call, we look at the stairs, the lift and where the van can stand. Whatever we agree is written into your work order.

Storage

Storage between two sets of keys

If there is a gap between handing over your old keys and getting your new ones, your belongings go into a container at your home. It is sealed and stays in our climate-controlled halls until you can move in.

Local points to watch

What to keep in mind when moving in Voorburg

Parking in Voorburg is free, but you will deal with blue parking zones, a pedestrian area and flats without a lift. We go through these points during the survey, so they do not hold up moving day.

Request a survey

Huygenskwartier pedestrian area

Cars and lorries may only enter the Huygenskwartier between 7.00 and 11.00 to load and unload, and cameras check this. If your move falls outside those hours, on request we apply for a day exemption as your removal company, as an extra service.

Blue parking zones

Around the Huygenskwartier and De Julianabaan you can only park briefly with a parking disc. A move takes longer, so the van needs a temporary exemption. You apply for it through the municipality's parking desk; on request we do that for you, as an extra service.

Walk-up flats

Voorburg-Noord has many flats in city blocks with a shared staircase and often no lift. There we bring large furniture out through a window or balcony with our moving lift, which keeps the stairwell clear.

Post-war gallery flats

Bovenveen and the area around the Koningin Julianaplein have many gallery flats from the fifties to the seventies. If there is a lift, we book it through the management; if not, our moving lift comes along, and we plan the route along the gallery.

We load your belongings into a container at your home, seal it while you watch and do not transfer anything on the way. They stay in our climate-controlled halls with 4K AI camera surveillance until your new home is free.

Our people

Moving is a profession, not a side job

Between 7.00 and 11.00 the van may enter the Huygenskwartier, so those are the hours in which our movers load there. A flat in Voorburg-Noord often has no lift; in that case they bring large furniture out through the window or balcony with the moving lift. At a gallery flat in Bovenveen they also plan the route along the gallery.

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.

Neighbourhoods

Moving in Voorburg's neighbourhoods

Voorburg's neighbourhoods differ a lot in age and type of building. For each one you can read what homes you will find and what that means for the stairs, the lift and the loading spot. Links to neighbouring towns follow below.

Oud Voorburg and Voorburg Midden

The old village centre with the Huygenskwartier lies around the Herenstraat, and the post-war centre with gallery flats around the Koningin Julianaplein. We time the loading around the pedestrian area; on request we apply for the blue-zone exemptions, as an extra service.

Voorburg Oud · Huygenskwartier · Voorburg Midden · Damsigt

Voorburg-West and Park Leeuwenbergh

Mostly pre-war houses with their own front door, some detached or semi-detached. We take large wardrobes apart; anything that will not go up the stairs goes through the window by lift. At the survey we also check where the van can park.

Voorburg-West · Park Leeuwenbergh · Westeinde

Voorburg-Noord and Bovenveen

Flats in city blocks and many post-war apartment buildings. In walk-up blocks without a lift, large furniture goes on our moving lift; where there is a building lift, we book it through the management.

Voorburg Noord · Bovenveen · Koningin Wilhelminalaan

Essesteijn and Sijtwende

Family houses alongside high-rise blocks on the main roads, and in Sijtwende new homes built over the tunnel. For high-rise we plan the lift with the management; for houses our lift only comes if the stairs are too tight.

Practical matters

What needs arranging in Voorburg

After the survey your account manager records in the work order what needs doing at your old and your new address. On moving day the foreman knows where the van stands, whether an exemption has been applied for and what goes into which room.

Moving into a zero-emission zone

If you are moving to the centre or the coast of The Hague, we drive into a zero-emission zone. Our electric vehicles can enter without an exemption, and we build the city's rules on parking and bollards into the planning.

Owners' association and management

In flats and apartment blocks you agree the lift, protective panels in the hall and timing with the owners' association or management beforehand, so your move is on your neighbours' radar as well. On request we do that for you, as an extra service.

Packing and boxes

Moving boxes and reusable packing materials come from us. If you would rather not do it yourself, we pack everything for you and unpack it at the new address, room by room according to the work order.

Assembly and handyman

We take beds, wardrobes and tables apart at your old address and put them back together at the new one. Our handyman then hangs lamps, curtain rails and pictures, so your home is ready to use straight away.

Frequently asked questions about moving in Voorburg

Call us on 088 321 99 00 if your question is not listed. On working days you will hear back within an hour, including on quote requests.

Ask your question in the request

How much does a move in Voorburg cost?+

The cost of a move in Voorburg depends on your belongings, the number of floors, whether the moving lift is needed and how much we pack for you. We charge a transparent hourly rate, which you see in the quote before anything happens. Your account manager prepares that quote with no obligation after the survey, at home or by video call.

Can a removal van enter the Huygenskwartier?+

A removal van may enter the Huygenskwartier between 7.00 and 11.00 to load and unload. Outside those hours a day exemption is needed, which the municipality grants to removal companies, among others. Parking in the pedestrian area is not allowed even with an exemption, so the van only stays while we load or unload.

How do blue parking zones work during a move in Voorburg?+

In a blue zone in Voorburg you may park for 1 or 2 hours with a parking disc, which is too short for a move. The removal van therefore needs a temporary parking exemption, which you apply for through the municipality's parking desk. On request we do that for you, as an extra service. The exemption is digital, so nothing needs to go behind the windscreen.

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

We move a flat without a lift using our own electric moving lift, through a window or from the balcony. It goes up to the 13th floor and lifts loads of up to 400 kg. Large wardrobes and sofas then do not have to go down the stairwell, which stays clear for your neighbours.

Can you move me from Voorburg into a zero-emission zone?+

Yes, our electric vehicles can enter a zero-emission zone without an exemption. That matters if you move from Voorburg to the centre or the coast of The Hague, where such a zone applies. We build the city's rules on parking and bollards into the planning, and we are just as happy to move you the other way.

Where can I store my belongings when moving from Voorburg?+

You can store your belongings with us in a sealed container that is loaded at your home and not transferred on the way. It stays in our climate-controlled halls. If you want to reach your things yourself, our automated self storage is available in Katwijk.

How far ahead should I plan a move in Voorburg?+

Ideally, plan your move in Voorburg eight weeks ahead, as that is how far our schedule runs. At short notice there is often still room, so do call if you need to move sooner. On request we can apply for the Huygenskwartier day exemption and the temporary blue-zone exemption for you within that time, as an extra service.
