What changes the price
Five things move the price of a move.
Volume, not floor area
A 45 m² apartment can hold 15 m³ or 30 m³. The volume of your belongings drives the size of the crew and the truck.
Distance
Across town, the day is spent loading. Across the country, it is spent driving, often over two days, with fuel and tolls on top.
Floors and lift
Every floor without a suitable lift adds carrying time. Above the third floor, a furniture lift through the window is often needed.
Access and parking
The distance between the truck and your door, a courtyard, a door code, a parking permit. These details weigh more than the route.
Service level
Eco, Standard or Premium: who packs what. See what each one includes above.
Why prices vary
Why prices for the same move vary so much.
Not the same move
One company hears "a 2-bedroom", another sees the sixth floor without a lift. Comparable prices start with the same description for everyone.
Extras added later
Stairs, long carry, parking, packing: when they are not in the first figure, they appear on the final bill.
A low price that does not hold
The lowest figure is only useful if the company is solvent and still coming on the day. Check its records before you sign.
