In Amsterdam, efficiency is key. The city demands smart solutions, quick switches and clear agreements. Exactly that is what we offer.
Moving to Amsterdam means starting in a city full of life, culture and history. When you trade your current home for Amsterdam, good preparation is half the battle. For a moving van, you may need an exemption at your new home. You need this when there are no parking spaces available, you want to reserve parking bays, temporarily block the road or drive in places where this is not normally allowed.
Is part of the road being closed off or do you want to reserve parking spaces? Then you must apply for a TVM (Temporary Traffic Measure) through the website of the City of Amsterdam. Strict rules apply here: the reserved spaces may only be used for loading and unloading; parking before or after loading or unloading is only allowed at normal parking rates, otherwise you risk a fine.

Moving house in Amsterdam isn’t done lightly; the municipality wants you to arrange everything neatly:
We start with an on-site appraisal visit. In a city where parking is limited, properties are often hard to reach and elevators are not a given, good preparation is half the battle. Together we look at your needs, the size of the contents and the logistics.
Want extra help with hanging, connecting or mounting? No problem, we take that right into the planning.
Moving day is all about timing and oversight. Our movers know the city, work efficiently and keep you constantly informed of progress. We use moving elevators where necessary and make sure your belongings arrive protected, fast and undamaged. A canal house, new construction or student dormitory makes no difference to us, we make sure it is well organized.
No access to your new home yet? Then we will temporarily store your belongings. Our storage is secure, conditioned and flexibly available as soon as you are ready for delivery. We store your belongings safely in our advanced storage center in Katwijk, we do this in conjunction with your move. Your household goods are carefully loaded into one of our hygienic storage rooms. After loading, the driver transports your belongings to our main location. The automated crane lifts the storage box from the truck after which it will be stacked in the storage center. Do you need interim access to your belongings? You can easily arrange this via your phone, tablet or computer. After you have received a text message you have access to your storage unit with your unique code.
