At least two movers and a van

Moving service NRW

Moving company Essen

Hardly any city in NRW is as split in two as Essen. Between an old building in Rüttenscheid and a house in Werden lie ten kilometres and two completely different moves.

Move in Essen

In the south — Rüttenscheid, Bredeney, Werden, Kettwig — it is about houses with long driveways, basements, attics and accumulated belongings. The van almost always gets close, but the volume is larger than estimated, and garden furniture, workshop and basement items are added that nobody thinks of in the first phone call.

In the north — Altenessen, Katernberg and Karnap — multi-family houses and estate housing dominate. Paths inside the building are shorter here, but the roadside is full and stairwells are narrower. That is why in Essen we ask for basement photos earlier than elsewhere: they decide whether one van is enough or two trips are needed.

Frequently asked questions from Essen

  • Why do you ask for photos of the basement?

    Because in Essen homes the basement regularly makes up a third of the volume. Without those photos we underestimate, and one van turns into two trips.

  • Do you also handle disposal?

    Yes, as a separate line item in the quote, with proof of disposal. Especially for household clearances in southern Essen this is often the larger part of the work.

  • Can you carry out moves on a Saturday?

    As a rule yes, if the date is fixed early. For no-parking zones the same lead times apply as on weekdays.
