Removal Company Amsterdam
Moving within or to Amsterdam? Verhuisbedrijf Holland is the partner of choice for a carefree and efficient move in the Amsterdam region, whether you are moving home or business.
Amsterdam calls for experienced movers
Moving in Amsterdam is a challenge in itself. Narrow canal houses, steep staircases and strict parking rules turn every move into precision work. Verhuisbedrijf Holland knows the capital through and through and makes sure your move, from the Jordaan to IJburg, runs smoothly from start to finish.
Whether you are moving home or business, we take the entire process off your hands. From packing and operating the hoist lift to applying for a parking permit and arranging an object permit, you have nothing to worry about. We work with a settled crew, tight planning and a price that is fixed in advance.
In a city where almost every home sits above the ground floor and the staircases are rarely wider than eighty centimetres, experience counts double. We know when a hoist lift is indispensable, how to deal with loading windows in the low-traffic centre and where the cyclists and trams need watching. That way your moving day stays calm and manageable.

Familiar with every canal and staircase
No two Amsterdam addresses are the same, and our approach adapts to that. A flat in De Pijp calls for a hoist lift up the facade, while a family home on IJburg or in Nieuw-West is reached at ground level. Our team scales with the job, from two movers and a van to a full crew with a lift, and handles your belongings with the greatest care.
You benefit from transparent rates with no hidden costs. We discuss in advance whether a hoist lift is needed for a steep staircase, which parking permit applies and whether an object notification is required for the lift on the pavement or the cycle path. With a packing service, dismantling, reassembly and temporary storage, we take the heaviest jobs off your hands, so you can focus on your new life in the city.

Moving in Amsterdam, canal ring and hoisting beam
Amsterdam is like no other city built on water and tight space. The famous canal ring with postcodes 1015 to 1017 consists of narrow merchants’ houses where the staircases are often no wider than sixty to eighty centimetres. You simply cannot get a sofa or cupboard up there via the stairwell. The hoisting beam above the facade is there for a reason, and where it falls short, our hoist lift comes into play. In the Jordaan stand the narrowest houses with the steepest staircases in the city, which turns every move into precision work.
The types of housing differ greatly from one district to another. In De Pijp and Oud-West you find nineteenth-century walk-up flats with many floors, while Oud-Zuid has spacious townhouses. Amsterdam-Noord is developing at speed with new-build around the NDSM wharf and Overhoeks, and IJburg has been built entirely anew on artificial islands. In Nieuw-West, with Osdorp and Slotervaart, post-war high-rise dominates instead. Each district calls for its own approach, from hoisting alongside a canal to a ground-level run on a new-build island.
Parking is the strictest in Amsterdam of anywhere in the Netherlands. In virtually every district, paid parking applies, and for the removal van you apply for a parking permit. If you want to reserve parking bays or place a hoist lift on the pavement or the cycle path, an object permit or object notification is also required. We arrange these applications for you and take into account loading windows for vehicles over 3,500 kilograms and the low-traffic zones in the centre. That way everything is ready on moving day.
Our home base is in Werkhoven, in the Utrecht region. Via the A2 we reach Amsterdam in about three quarters of an hour, a distance of some forty-five kilometres. As a result, we drive in and out of the capital every day and plan a move to or from Amsterdam without unnecessary travel surcharges. Whether you are moving to a flat on the canal or to a family home on IJburg, we make sure everything runs like clockwork.
