Include the shed in your inventory

Garden furniture, tool cupboards and under-stairs storage are easily missed in an initial estimate. Check every area. List heavy objects separately and explain how they can reach the street.

Separate what is moving from what is leaving

When downsizing, separate moving boxes, items for family and furniture for disposal. Share all destinations in advance. Disposal is a separate part of the agreement and is not automatically covered by a moving estimate.

Plan around the handover date

If your old property must be empty before you receive new keys, discuss storage you have arranged. Share access arrangements for that extra stop. We plan from Amsterdam without a separate Purmerend branch.

Plan loading and access

Share the loading point and carrying distance. Reserving space, using a moving lift or placing other obstacles may require further arrangements or municipal procedures. Check the exact address and date; parking and permit costs are not part of the standard hourly rate.

Prepare with photos and an inventory

Photograph large furniture, boxes, entrances and stairs. Tell us what you will do yourself and what help you need. Storage rooms, extra collection addresses or assembly can change the work; include them in your request.

Check the local loading spot

Purmerend provides separate parking guidance for special and large vehicles. Check the dimensions and planned loading or parking spot; an empty parking bay does not by itself mean the truck may remain there.

Rules and application times can change. Check the requirements for your address and date.

From the details to a clear agreement

Tell us what you will prepare yourself and what you need us to do. Photos of items, doors and awkward corners help us assess the work. We agree the team, route and tasks before you approve the quote.

Practical answers

Good to know.

Can you transport just furniture?

Yes. Include dimensions, both addresses and who will be present for collection and delivery.

How are travel costs determined?

We discuss the route and chargeable travel amount in your quote before you agree. A place name alone is not enough for a final price.

Can I request packing or assembly help?

Yes. Tell us beforehand what you need. These tasks are included separately in the agreed work.
