High-quality moves — what makes us different
The people. Our movers are trained, experienced and punctual, work in both Dutch and English, and know this region street by street. When a move throws up a puzzle — a cabinet that won't take the corner, a staircase narrower than promised, a lift out of order on the day — they solve it. That's what years of moves in old Dutch city centers teaches a crew.
The materials. A canal house forgives nothing, so nothing travels bare: furniture goes into moving blankets and stretch foil, mattresses into protective bags, corners and doorframes get padded, and floors are covered from front door to truck. Your belongings travel in sturdy, reusable boxes — better for your glassware and better for the planet than single-use cardboard. In the truck, every load is strapped down before we drive a single meter.
The fleet. Multiple truck sizes — 18 m³, 24 m³, 48 m³ and more. In Leiden that choice matters: a compact van threads the one-way streets along the Rapenburg, while a full family household in the Merenwijk goes in one trip instead of three.
Special items like pianos and billiard tables need extra care and attention due to their size and delicacy. If your current or new home has narrow stairs, consider renting a moving lift to simplify the process. Be diligent in sealing your boxes securely to prevent them from opening during transit. Also, be mindful of the weight of your boxes to avoid any back injuries.
If you find these tasks daunting or need expert assistance, don't hesitate to contact a professional moving company in Leiden. Our moving experts can provide valuable guidance and services to ensure your move is smooth and hassle-free. Let us help you plan and execute your move with precision and care.
Reliable and fast moving service in Leiden
A move is a big task — especially if you take it on yourself. We're happy to take it off your hands, and we do it fast without cutting corners: the agreed time is when the doorbell rings, the crew works efficiently so you can settle into your new home the same day, and our 4.9 out of 5 on Google is built on exactly that. We know every corner of the city too — the steep monumental staircases of Pieterswijk and the Rapenburg, the compact pre-war streets of De Kooi and Transvaal, the family neighborhoods of Merenwijk and Stevenshof, the stately homes of the Professorenwijk, and the international crowd around the Bio Science Park. We arrange the municipal parking exemption, reserve the loading spot, and position the moving lift where the stairs say no.

Frequently asked questions about moving in Leiden
Do I need a parking permit for the moving van in Leiden?
In the center and most surrounding neighborhoods, yes — paid parking applies, and for a moving van or lift you'll want a reserved spot. We advise you and help arrange the exemption with the municipality in time.
How much does a move in Leiden cost?
Movers from €19 per hour, vans from €39. A student room takes a couple of hours; a family home a full day. Request a quote — or a free home visit — and you'll have your exact price the same day.
My canal house has an impossibly steep staircase. Can you still move me?
Yes — that's the most Leiden question there is. We set up a moving lift at the facade and bring your belongings in through the window: faster, safer, and usually cheaper than stair work.
What should I prepare before moving day?
The more that's boxed, labeled and disconnected before we arrive, the fewer hours you pay. Our complete moving day checklist walks you through it step by step.
Can I help during the move to save money?
Absolutely. Many customers pack themselves and carry the light boxes while we handle furniture and heavy items. Every helping hand shortens the day — and the invoice.
How far in advance should I book?
Two to three weeks is ideal; end-of-month Fridays and the weeks around the academic year fill up first. Short-notice and urgent moves are often possible — just call.
Do your movers speak English?
Yes — our crews work in both Dutch and English. With the university and the Bio Science Park around the corner, English-language moves are part of our weekly routine.
