Experienced movers for every Houten home

No two moves in Houten are the same. An apartment in Castellum calls for a different approach than a terraced house on a residential courtyard in De Akkers or a mid-terrace home with a narrow rear access in Loerik. We match our people and equipment to your situation: from a compact van for an apartment to a full crew with a hoist lift for a home with a tight or steep staircase. Our experienced team handles your belongings with care and makes sure everything arrives safely and on time at the new address.

With us you benefit from transparent rates without hidden costs. If you would like to be fully unburdened, we also provide a packing service, dismantling and reassembling furniture, temporary storage and hoist lift rental. That way you keep time for the things that really matter around your move in Houten, while we take the heavy work off your hands.

How your moving day unfolds, step by step

A successful move in Houten begins with good preparation. Beforehand we go through with you what needs to come along, which ring road and residential street give the best access to the property, and whether a lift or permit is required. For an apartment, a family home or an office space, we have the expertise to make the day run flawlessly.

  • Residential moves We make sure your furniture, boxes and other belongings are brought safely to your new home in or beyond Houten.
  • Business moves A company move calls for tight planning, so that your business stands still as little as possible.

Additional services:

  • Packing service: Let us pack your belongings professionally for extra protection.
  • Hoist lift rental: Ideal for apartments in Castellum or homes without a lift.
  • Storage options: Temporary storage for items you cannot take with you right away.
  • Clearance services: Leaving homes or offices broom clean.

Houten: moving in the cycling town

Houten is a growing municipality to the south-east of Utrecht with a very distinctive layout. From the 1980s onwards the town grew from a small village into a modern residential community, first with Houten-Noord and later with the Vinex neighbourhoods of Houten-Zuid. Its defining feature is the ring road: car traffic is guided around the neighbourhoods along that ring, while cyclists ride straight through the green heart. As a result, Houten is regarded as one of the most cycle-friendly towns in the country, with two station areas around Het Rond and Castellum.

That structure also shapes how we approach a move. The residential neighbourhoods in Houten-Noord, with names such as De Akkers, De Weiden and De Gaarden, consist of quiet courtyards and closes with narrow streets and speed bumps. A removal van has to enter via the right ring-road exit, because you cannot drive straight through the centre. Houten-Zuid holds the newer neighbourhoods of Loerik, Hofstad, Schonauwen and Castellum, with a mix of terraced houses, semi-detached homes and apartments. Around Het Oude Dorp and the historic Schonauwen manor you find older buildings instead.

In the centre near Het Rond there is a blue parking zone and there are car parks; parking right outside the door is limited there. For a removal van we will, if you wish, apply in advance for a blue-zone permit from the municipality of Houten, so that we can load and unload close to the entrance. In most residential neighbourhoods parking is free and it is enough to keep a few spaces clear. From our base in Werkhoven we reach Houten in about ten minutes, and via the A27 Utrecht, Nieuwegein and Culemborg are quickly accessible. Whether you are moving within Houten or heading off to another city, we make sure it runs smoothly.

Frequently asked questions

How does Verhuisbedrijf Holland move within the residential neighbourhoods of Houten?

Houten is built around a ring road, with the residential neighbourhoods reached via separate exits and car traffic guided around the neighbourhoods. We therefore plan in advance which exit and residential street give us the easiest approach to your home, because driving straight through the centre is not possible. In the closes and courtyards with narrow streets and speed bumps we use a more compact van where needed, so that we can park close to the front door.

What does a move with a moving company in Houten cost?

A complete move in Houten costs on average between € 850 and € 1,200 for a family home. The price depends on the size of your household contents, the distance and whether a hoist lift is needed. A terraced house with its own parking space in Loerik is usually cheaper to move than an apartment with a lift in Castellum. After a survey you receive a fixed total price with no surprises afterwards.

Which neighbourhoods of Houten does Verhuisbedrijf Holland cover?

We move in every neighbourhood and village in the municipality of Houten. In Houten-Noord we work in areas such as De Akkers, De Weiden, De Gaarden and De Slagen, in Houten-Zuid in Loerik, Hofstad, Schonauwen and Castellum, and in addition in Het Oude Dorp. The villages of ‘t Goy, Schalkwijk and Tull en ‘t Waal are also part of our service area, as are neighbouring municipalities such as Bunnik, Nieuwegein and Wijk bij Duurstede. For each neighbourhood we know what to expect.

Do I need a parking permit for the removal van in Houten?

Around Het Rond there is a blue parking zone and there are car parks; parking right outside the door is limited there. For the removal van we will, if you wish, apply in advance for a blue-zone permit from the municipality of Houten, so that we can load and unload close to the entrance. In most residential neighbourhoods parking is free and it is enough to keep a few spaces outside the door clear. We discuss this as standard during the planning.

Where do I register my change of address in Houten?

You register your change of address through the website of the municipality of Houten, online with DigiD. You can do this from four weeks before the move up to five days afterwards. If you are moving here from outside the municipality, you arrange the registration in the same way and Houten automatically informs your former place of residence. If you live in the blue zone around Het Rond, remember to arrange your parking permit or garage space as well.

Can I also move from Houten to other cities?

Yes, from Houten we move to cities across the Randstad and beyond every day. Thanks to the location on the A27, Utrecht, Nieuwegein and Culemborg are quickly accessible, which keeps the travel time for a move down. We also often see the reverse: moving from a large city to spacious Houten. We charge the price per route, with no surprises afterwards.

Can I book a packing service in Houten?

Yes, our team can pack your entire household in the days before the move. We bring professional moving boxes, packing paper and special wardrobe boxes, so you do not have to arrange anything yourself. We pack crockery, glassware and books room by room and label them, which makes unpacking at the new address much faster. You decide yourself whether we pack everything or only the fragile items.

Can I have my business in Houten moved?

Yes, we handle business moves in Houten, from offices on the De Molenzoom and Doornkade business parks to practice rooms near Het Rond. We plan the move outside office hours if your operations require it. We move workstations, files and equipment according to a plan we go through with you in advance. Your team can simply get back to work the next working day.
