How it works

How does it work?

Three steps, one screen. You see an indicative estimate before anyone asks for your details.

  1. Step 1: Enter your addresses

    Type your current and new address. The route and distance are calculated automatically with OpenStreetMap routing.

  2. Step 2: Select your inventory

    Choose your property type and furniture. The calculator estimates volume and recommends a van.

  3. Step 3: Get your price & plan

    Instantly receive an indicative estimate + downloadable moving plan as PDF. For a fixed price, request a quote afterwards.

Services

More than a van and two movers

What movers often offer alongside transport. Packing, dismantling, storage and a piano can be added in the calculator; ask about the rest in your quote request.

  • Hands wrapping a fragile item in brown packing paper In the calculator

    Packing

    Packers wrap fragile items and fill the boxes, or you only order boxes and tape and pack yourself.

  • Hands loosening a bolt in a wooden furniture frame with an Allen key In the calculator

    Dismantling & assembly

    Wardrobes, beds and tables taken apart before the move and put back together in your new home.

  • Corridor of a self-storage building with rows of storage units In the calculator

    Temporary storage

    For when your new home is not ready yet: furniture and boxes stored per month.

  • White upright piano in a bright living room In the calculator

    Piano & art

    Pianos, artworks and antiques need blankets, crates and sometimes a lift or extra hands.

  • Coloured file folders and a pencil on a wooden table Ask in your quote

    Customs & documents

    Moving to or from a country outside the EU, such as the UK or Switzerland? Then an inventory list and customs forms are part of the move.

  • Mopping the floor with a mop and bucket Ask in your quote

    Final cleaning

    Leave your old home clean for the handover, arranged by the mover or a local cleaner.

Moving checklist

Week by week to moving day

Pick a moment to see what to arrange. Your PDF moving plan from the calculator contains a checklist too.

8 weeks before

  • Request quotes from several movers and compare what is included.
  • Decide what comes with you: sell, donate or recycle what you no longer need.
  • Give notice on your rental contract in time for the notice period.
  • Moving abroad? Check whether you stay within the EU: outside it, customs rules apply.

4 weeks before

  • Book the mover and confirm date, access and parking in writing.
  • Ask the municipality about a parking permit or loading zone if your street needs one.
  • Start packing the rooms you use least and label every box by room.
  • Arrange school, childcare and, abroad, the EU pet passport for pets.

2 weeks before

  • Pass your new address to your bank, insurer, employer and subscriptions.
  • Arrange energy, water and internet at the new address.
  • Use up frozen food and plan when to defrost the freezer.

1 week before

  • Pack everything except daily essentials; keep documents and valuables with you.
  • Pack an "open first" box: chargers, toiletries, bedding and basic tools.
  • Confirm arrival time and address details with the mover.

Moving day

  • Take meter readings at both addresses and photograph them.
  • Walk through every room and cupboard before the van leaves.
  • Check the inventory on arrival and note any damage on the delivery note.

After the move

  • Register at your new municipality within the required time.
  • Hand over the keys of your old home and keep the handover report.
  • Report damage to the mover in writing within the period in your contract.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can't find your answer? Contact us.

Is the calculator really free?

Yes, 100% free. No registration, no spam, no obligations.

How accurate is the price?

It is an indicative estimate based on typical European rates, not on live prices from a specific mover. Actual prices may differ; a moving company only gives you a fixed price in a quote.

Does it work for international moves?

Yes. Route calculation (OpenStreetMap) works across Europe and the estimate takes distance and volume into account. It remains an indication; for an international move, always request a quote.

What's in the moving plan?

A PDF with your route, inventory list, recommended van, price breakdown, and a complete checklist for before, during and after your move.

Will my data be shared?

Only if you request quotes yourself. We never sell your data.
