How does it work?

First, choose from our moving options. Are you going for a complete move, or would you like us to handle only the large furniture? If you opt for moving only the large furniture, you can easily customize your move on our website. Want to move your entire household? You can quickly calculate a price estimate on our website. If it fits your budget, go ahead and schedule a home visit right away!

How far in advance should I plan the move?
 Is it a large move, such as the entire household of a family home? In that case, we recommend scheduling the move at least 6 to 10 weeks in advance. For smaller moves from apartments or just the large furniture, you can schedule with us 3 to 6 weeks in advance.
I don't know my moving date yet, what now?

No problem, even if you don't know exactly when you will move, you can make a calculation via our website and get an overview of the costs. Please note that there is a 30% surcharge on Saturdays and 50% on Sundays.

Do you also have a moving lift?

Yes, Student Movers has its own moving lift. We’re happy to use it when moving your belongings to or from an apartment without an elevator. The cost of the moving lift (including an operator) is €325. It’s not possible to rent the moving lift separately; it can only be booked as part of a move.

Can I help with the move myself?

Yes, if you choose a "move together" option, you can save costs by helping out yourself. We’ll handle the assembly, disassembly, and lifting of the large furniture, while you focus on the boxes and smaller items. Feel free to enlist a friend or family member to lend a hand—many hands make light work!

When do I need a moving elevator?

You’ll need a moving lift if you live in an apartment without an elevator. If you live on the first floor or higher, our website will automatically prompt you to add a moving lift.

How long does a move take?

The duration depends entirely on how many items you have and how far we need to travel between the old and new address. With Student Movers, a move is almost always completed within 1 day!

Do I need to be present during the move?

Yes, we strongly recommend that you are present during the move. As the customer, you are responsible for providing clear instructions and carrying out a final check to ensure that the correct belongings are moved and that anything meant to stay behind remains in place.

If you are not present, there is a greater risk that the wrong or incomplete items will be moved. Any additional work or return trips resulting from this may lead to extra charges and disruptions to the moving schedule. Therefore, we recommend that you or an authorized representative is present throughout the move.

In which region does Student Movers operate?

Student Movers operates from Eindhoven, and we mostly handle moves in Southeast Brabant and North and Central Limburg.

Can you also handle international moves?

Due to the complex laws and regulations surrounding international relocations, we only provide moving services within the Netherlands. Unfortunately, we are therefore unable to assist with moves to or from Belgium, Germany, or any other European country. We are, however, happy to help with any move within the Netherlands.

Do you also handle office moves?

Yes, we regularly handle office moves. We can assist with office relocations for up to about 20 to 25 workstations. You can arrange this easily online.

I can't select my moving date.
 If your desired moving date is not clickable and is marked in red, unfortunately, we are fully booked or closed due to holiday.
Can I change the moving date after it has been confirmed?

Yes, it is possible to change the moving date free of charge up to 4 weeks before the scheduled move. After this period, we may charge a fee, as it becomes increasingly difficult to find another customer for that date, which can result in a loss of revenue.

Do you have any tips for keeping parking spaces free?

To keep your moving costs as low as possible, it is advisable to reserve at least two parking spaces at your old and/or new home for our moving truck, in order to keep the walking distance as short as possible. We have a few handy tips for this. First, inform your neighbors about your upcoming move. Second, you can purchase barrier tape from our webshop to keep the parking spaces free. Alternatively, you can place a waste container (with a note on it) on the reserved parking spaces.

Do you also move safes and/or vaults?
ChatGPT zei:

Yes, but only up to a maximum weight of 75 kg.

To what extent does a linen wardrobe need to be disassembled

For a save and smooth move, we ask that linen cabinets and IKEA PAX warddrobes are fully disassembled into seperate panels. Please also remove any handles in advance This way, we can ensure everything is moved as efficiently and without damage as possible.

How do you move heavy furniture or objects?

We use so-called furniture dollies for this. They allow us to easily and safely move objects weighing up to 100 kg.

Do chest of drawers need to be disassembled?

In general, most drawer units can be moved down the stairs in one piece once the drawers have been removed. However, there are exceptions: baby changing tables sometimes need to be fully or partially disassembled. The same applies to the IKEA Hemnes 8-drawer chest, as it will not fit down the stairs otherwise.

What time do you usually start?

Standard moves start between 9:00 and 9:30.
