Premium moving services in Eindhoven
Moving company Eindhoven
• Same-day quote • Insured up to €2.5 million
• No call-out charges and no weekend surcharge
Moving in Eindhoven is not the same as moving in the Randstad. The city sits well outside it, which is exactly why most movers add travel costs to your quote. We do not. Holland Movers has been moving households since 1973 and has completed more than 80,000 moves. We charge no call-out charges and no return charges, anywhere in the Netherlands, and we take the whole move off your hands.
Why choose Holland Movers as your moving company in Eindhoven?
- You pay no call-out charges and no return charges, anywhere in the Netherlands.
- Your belongings are insured up to 2.5 million euros, with no excess. That cover is unique in the moving industry.
- We drive box trucks rather than large lorries, so we can park close to your door in the centre and on the campus grounds.
- Our movers speak English, and your quote is transparent and itemised.
- More than 80,000 moves since 1973, and around 400 international moves a year.

Local knowledge: moving in and around Eindhoven
Eindhoven is a city of very different building types, and each one moves differently. Around Strijp-S you find converted industrial buildings and new apartment blocks with lifts that are shared with other residents, so we book a time slot with the building manager in advance. In the surrounding villages the homes are larger and there is a driveway, which makes access easy but adds volume.
The city is also a working region rather than a tourist centre. Around the High Tech Campus, the technical university and the semiconductor industry we regularly move people who arrive on a contract of a few years, often with their family.
A typical move in Eindhoven
A two-bedroom flat in the centre with a lift takes four to six hours with a team of three movers, from the first box to the last screw. We arrive between 8.00 and 8.30, protect the floors and the door frames, and load in the order the rooms need to be unloaded.
What makes the difference is not the distance but the access: the lift, the width of the stairwell and where the truck can stand. Your advisor checks those three points during the free survey, so nothing has to be solved on the day itself.
What does a move in Eindhoven cost?
A move in Eindhoven with Holland Movers usually costs between 1,000 and 2,000 euros. We work by the hours actually worked, not with a fixed sum, and we charge no call-out charges and no return charges. That matters in Eindhoven: the city lies outside the Randstad and most movers pass that distance on to you.
Below are five examples of moves we carry out in and around Eindhoven, with the home, the team and the amount. They give you a better feel for the price than a calculator does, because the access is what determines the duration.
| Example move | Home and access | Team and duration | Indication |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio in Strijp-S to a one-bedroom flat in the centre | 35 m², third floor, shared lift | 2 movers, 3.5 hours | €650 |
| Two-bedroom flat near the High Tech Campus to a house in Veldhoven | 75 m², lift at the old address, driveway at the new one | 3 movers, 5 hours | €1,050 |
| Family house in Tongelre to a family house in Nuenen | 110 m², stairs at both addresses | 3 movers, 7 hours | €1,450 |
| Family house in Eindhoven to Amsterdam, full service with packing | 120 m², packed the day before | 4 movers, 2 days | €2,600 |
| Detached house in Waalre to Germany | 160 m², international, in our own vehicles | 4 movers, 3 days | €3,900 |
Recognise your own situation in one of these? Then that indication is close. Your advisor confirms the exact amount during the free survey.
Moving costs in Eindhoven by type of home
These are the indications we work with. The duration is what determines the amount, so the floor you live on, the presence of a lift and the volume of your belongings weigh heavier than the number of kilometres.
| Type of home | Duration | Indication |
|---|---|---|
| Studio or one-bedroom flat | 3 to 4 hours | €600 to €850 |
| Two-bedroom flat | 4 to 6 hours | €850 to €1,200 |
| Three-bedroom flat with lift | 6 to 8 hours | €1,200 to €1,700 |
| Family house | 7 to 9 hours | €1,500 to €2,000 |
| Detached house | from 8 hours | from €2,000 |
Your personal moving advisor confirms the exact amount during the free survey, so nothing is added afterwards.
A free viewing and your personal moving advisor
Every move starts with a free survey, at your home or online, with the moving advisor who stays your contact throughout. Together you go through the rooms, the access and the date, and you receive a transparent, itemised quote with no hidden costs.
Our movers are available seven days a week and speak English. If your moving date shifts, or the volume of your belongings changes, you can adjust it: we plan for that rather than charge for it.
Trained movers and cover up to 2.5 million euros
Your belongings are insured up to 2.5 million euros with no excess during the move. That cover applies as standard, you do not have to arrange or pay for it separately, and it is unique in the Dutch moving industry.
The people carrying your furniture are our own trained movers, not day labour hired for the occasion. They work with furniture blankets, edge protection and floor covering, and they are used to fragile items: artwork, a piano, a full display cabinet.
Full service moving in Eindhoven
With full service you do not lift anything at all. We pack every room, label the boxes per room, take apart what needs taking apart, transport it, rebuild it at your new address and unpack the boxes again. Your beds are made up and your kitchen is usable the same evening.
You can also choose parts of it. Many clients in Eindhoven have us pack the kitchen and the fragile items and do the rest themselves. Our handyman service takes down a fitted wardrobe or remounts your TV on the day itself.
Temporary storage during your move in Eindhoven
If the dates of your old and new home do not line up, we store your belongings in our own secure storage. Your inventory stays in the same crates and blankets it was loaded in, and the same team brings it to your new address when you are ready.
That gap happens often with new builds and with a delayed key handover. We keep room in the schedule for it, so a shifted completion date does not become your problem. More on our moving and storage.
Senior relocation in Eindhoven
Moving to a smaller home or a care residence asks for a different pace. We work in the order that keeps the day calm: the bedroom and the bathroom first, so there is a made bed and a working bathroom before anything else is unpacked.
We hang the pictures back in the same arrangement, reconnect the television and take away what is not coming along. Family often lives elsewhere, so we keep one contact person informed throughout the day. See our senior relocation.
Moving with a moving lift in Eindhoven
When a wardrobe or a sofa will not go down the stairs, we move it through the window with a moving lift. That is part of your move, planned in advance, not something you have to arrange yourself.
Your advisor measures the stairwell and the window frame during the survey and decides then whether the lift is needed. In the older flats around the centre it usually is. Read more about the moving lift.
Packing service and moving boxes in Eindhoven
You can rent moving boxes and packing materials from us, or have us pack everything. A two-person household needs around 30 to 40 boxes; a family house 60 or more. We deliver them before the move and collect them afterwards, so you are not left with a hallway full of cardboard.
Glassware, artwork and electronics are packed in specific materials rather than newspaper. More about our packing service.
How to request your move in Eindhoven
There are two routes, and they are separate. Request a moving quote and you receive an indication the same day. Or book a free moving survey, at your home or online, and we go through everything with you first.
After that it is four steps: the survey, your itemised quote, the confirmation of the date, and the move itself. You keep the same advisor throughout, and changes to the date or the volume are possible at any stage.
- A quote the same day.
- No call-out charges and no return charges.
- Insured up to 2.5 million euros with no excess.
- A personal moving advisor from start to finish.
- Very flexible in changing your moving day.
- No weekend surcharge.
Business moves in Eindhoven: offices and the campus
We move offices, laboratories, shops and hotels, usually outside opening hours so your business keeps running. In Eindhoven that often means working around campus access rules and a fixed window in the evening or over a weekend.
You get one project contact, a floor plan per workstation and labelled crates, so people can start working the next morning. More on business relocation.
Why Holland Movers is the right moving company in Eindhoven
Because we are flexible where it counts and fixed where it matters. The moving date, the volume of your belongings and the equipment can change at any stage of the relocation. The insurance cover, the absence of call-out charges and the team you were promised do not.
That is also what our clients write. Holland Movers is rated 4.6 out of 5 based on more than 650 Google reviews, and families and companies have been asking us back since 1973. You can read a selection of those reviews higher up this page.
International moving from and to Eindhoven
As international movers we carry out around 400 moves a year, almost all of them within Europe and all of them in our own vehicles. Your belongings are never transferred into a container or handed to a foreign partner along the way: the team that loads in Eindhoven also unloads.
An international move from Eindhoven starts at around 3,000 euros and is quoted as a fixed price, because the route and the volume are known in advance. Popular destinations from here are moving to Germany and moving to Belgium.
Moving within Eindhoven
Most of our Eindhoven work is people moving from one part of the city to another. Within the city the distance is never the problem; the stairs, the door widths and where the truck can stand are.
A move within Eindhoven usually takes six to eight hours and is finished in one day. We plan around the access points rather than the kilometres, which is why we check them during the survey.
Moving to Eindhoven as an expat
Eindhoven attracts internationals through Brainport: the High Tech Campus, the technical university and the semiconductor industry around the city. Many arrive on a contract of a few years, often with their family, and move again once they know how long they are staying.
Register with the municipality
You must register your new address with the municipality. You can do so from four weeks before your moving date and no later than five days after. Register later and the municipality uses the date of your notification as your official moving date, which can affect your benefits, your local taxes and your parking permit. Municipalities may also impose a fine of up to 325 euros.
If you are moving to the Netherlands for the first time and will stay longer than four months, you register in the Personal Records Database and receive your citizen service number, the BSN. Staying for less than four months? Then you can request a BSN through the Non-residents Records Database instead. Bring a valid passport, and a rental or purchase contract for your new address. If you are moving in with someone, you also need a signed consent form from the main occupant with a copy of their ID.
Already living in the Netherlands and moving again?
Many internationals arrive in a temporary flat and move to a permanent home within a year or two. If you move to a different municipality, you only register with the new one: it automatically deregisters you from the old one. You never have to deregister yourself, unless you are leaving the country.
We handle these moves in the same way as any other, with no call-out charges and no return charges wherever in the Netherlands you go. Full details are on our page about change of address.
Moving from Eindhoven to another city?
Then the distance is included in the calculation, but you still pay no call-out charges and no return charges. Besides Eindhoven we also work as a moving company in moving company Utrecht, moving company The Hague, moving company Rotterdam, moving company Amsterdam and moving company Amstelveen.

Where internationals live in and around Eindhoven
Strijp-S and the centre
Converted industrial buildings and new apartment blocks, popular with younger internationals. Lifts are usually present but often shared with other residents, so we book a time slot with the building manager in advance.
Veldhoven, Waalre and Nuenen
Families working at the campus or at the chip manufacturers frequently settle in the surrounding villages, in family houses with a driveway. We cover that whole area at the same rate, without call-out charges.
Arriving from abroad
We handle around 400 international moves a year, almost all within Europe, in international movers. Your belongings are never transferred into a container or handed to a foreign partner along the way: the team that loads also unloads.
Moving service Eindhoven
Private relocation
Every move is different, so we plan yours around your home rather than around a standard package. From a studio to a family house, our team goes through the rooms, the access and the date with you in advance, and the same crew carries out the move from the first box to the last screw.
International moving
We carry out around 400 international moves a year, almost all of them within Europe. Your belongings travel in our own vehicles and are never transferred into a container or handed to a foreign partner along the way, so the team that loads in Eindhoven is the team that unloads at your new address.
Handyman service
A fitted wardrobe that has to come apart, a window frame that has to come out, a television that needs remounting. Our handyman does that on the moving day itself, so you are not waiting for a second appointment with someone else.
Moving lift
When a wardrobe or a sofa will not fit down the stairs, we move it through the window with our own moving lift. Your advisor measures the stairwell and the window frame during the survey and decides then whether the lift is needed, so it is planned rather than improvised.
Emergency relocation
A move at short notice because of a sale that went through quickly, a job that starts sooner than expected or a landlord who needs the keys. We keep capacity free for urgent work and can often start within a few days in Eindhoven.
Business relocation
Offices, laboratories, shops and hotels, usually outside opening hours so your business keeps running. You get one project contact, a floor plan per workstation and labelled crates, so your people can start working again the next morning.
Storage
If the dates of your old and new address do not line up, we store your belongings in our own secure storage. Your inventory stays in the same crates and blankets it was loaded in, and the same team brings it over when you are ready.
Packing service
We pack every room for you, label the boxes per room and unpack them again at your new address. Glassware, artwork and electronics go into materials made for them rather than into newspaper. You can also have us pack only the kitchen and the fragile items.
Senior relocation
Moving to a smaller home or a care residence asks for a different pace. We start with the bedroom and the bathroom, so there is a made bed and a working bathroom before anything else is unpacked, and we hang the pictures back in the same arrangement.
House clearance
Clearing a home completely, after a move or after a death, with reuse and proper disposal of what is left behind. We hand the property over broom clean and provide the documentation the landlord or the estate agent asks for.
