What makes a move in Tilburg different
The old textile districts around the Piushaven and in Oud-Noord are full of small workers’ houses: narrow hallways, steep staircases and a front door that opens straight onto the pavement. The volume is modest but the day takes longer than the square metres suggest.
The converted factories around the Spoorzone are the opposite kind of problem: high ceilings, freight lifts and shared entrances with building rules. We book the lift and the time slot with the building manager in advance, because in these buildings you cannot simply block the entrance.
What is the duration of a move in Tilburg?
A move in Tilburg usually takes 5 to 7 hours and is finished in one day. A workers’ house in Oud-Noord with a steep staircase takes longer than its size suggests; a loft in the Spoorzone with a freight lift is quicker.
Because you pay for the hours actually worked, the duration is the price. That is why your advisor checks the stairs, the lift and the parking during the free survey and gives you an estimate of the expected duration with your quote.
How much does a move in Tilburg cost?
A move in Tilburg with Holland Movers usually costs between 1,000 and 2,000 euros. A studio can be less, a family house with packing more. In Tilburg the staircase is what moves the price, not the distance.
Below are five examples of moves we carry out in and around Tilburg, with the home, the team and the amount. They give you a better feel for the price than a calculator does.
| Example move | Home and access | Team and duration | Indication |
|---|---|---|---|
| Room in Oud-Noord to a studio in the Spoorzone | 35 m², steep stairs to a freight lift | 2 movers, 3.5 hours | €660 |
| Workers’ house in Oud-Noord to a two-bedroom flat in the centre | 70 m², narrow hallway, moving lift | 3 movers, 5.5 hours | €1,100 |
| Loft in the Spoorzone to a family house in Reeshof | 100 m², freight lift to a house with a driveway | 3 movers, 6 hours | €1,300 |
| Family house in Reeshof to Eindhoven, full service with packing | 120 m², packed the day before | 4 movers, 2 days | €2,500 |
| Detached house in Tilburg to Belgium | 145 m², international, in our own vehicles | 4 movers, 2 days | €3,400 |
Recognise your own situation in one of these? Then that indication is close. Your advisor confirms the exact amount during the free survey.
Tilburg moving prices by type of home
These are the indications we work with. The duration 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 |
You pay no call-out charges and no weekend surcharge. Your advisor confirms the exact amount during the free survey, so nothing is added afterwards.
Your personal moving advisor in Tilburg
Every move starts with a free survey, at your home or online, with the advisor who stays your contact from the first call to the last box. Together you go through the rooms, the access and the date, and you receive a transparent, itemised quote with no hidden costs.
In the converted factories the survey is where we sort out the practical side: which lift we may use, how long we may block the entrance, and whether your furniture fits into it at all.
Careful handling in Tilburg, insured 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 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.
Moving in Tilburg without lifting a box
With full service you do not lift anything at all. We deliver the packing materials, pack every room and 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 Tilburg 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.
Furniture storage for your move in Tilburg
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.
Handy when a loft is still being finished while your tenancy has already ended. More about moving and storage.
Moving to a smaller home in Tilburg
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 through the window in Tilburg with a moving lift
When a wardrobe or a sofa will not go down the stairs, we move it through the window with our own moving lift. You generally need one from the second floor upwards, or when large furniture cannot be manoeuvred safely through the stairwell.
In the small workers’ houses of Oud-Noord that is regularly the case, because the hallway is narrower than a two-seat sofa. Your advisor measures the stairwell and the window frame during the survey and decides then whether the moving lift is needed, so it is planned in advance and included in the quote.
Let us pack your move in Tilburg
You can rent 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 go into materials made for them rather than into newspaper. More about our packing service.
Arranging your Tilburg move step by step
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, the volume or the equipment 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 relocation in Tilburg: offices and shops
We move offices, laboratories, shops and hotels, usually outside opening hours so your business keeps running. In Tilburg that is often a creative business or an office in the Spoorzone, where the freight lift sets the pace.
You get one project contact, a floor plan per workstation and labelled crates, so your people can start working again the next morning. More on business relocation.
Why clients in Tilburg keep coming back to us
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.
Holland Movers is rated 4.6 out of 5 based on more than 650 Google reviews, and has been moving households since 1973. You can read a selection of those reviews higher up this page.
International removals from Tilburg
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 Tilburg also unloads.
An international move from Tilburg starts at around 3,000 euros and is quoted as a fixed price, because the route and the volume are known in advance. Common destinations are moving to Germany, moving to Belgium and moving to France.
From one part of Tilburg to another
A large share of our work here is people moving from one part of Tilburg to another. Within the town the distance is never the problem: the stairs, the door widths and where the truck can stand are.
A workers’ house in Oud-Noord to a loft in the Spoorzone, or a flat in the centre to a family house in Reeshof. We plan a local move around exactly those points, which is why the survey looks at the access before it looks at anything else.
Moving to Tilburg from abroad
Tilburg University and the creative sector around the Spoorzone bring in a steady stream of internationals, most of them on contracts of a few years. Housing is cheaper here than in the Randstad, so the step from a room to a whole house comes sooner.
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.
Moving to the Netherlands for the first time and staying longer than four months? Then 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. If you are moving in with someone, you also need a signed consent form from the main occupant.
Already living in the Netherlands and moving again?
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.
Leaving Tilburg for another city?
Then the distance is included in the calculation, but you still pay no call-out charges and no return charges. The routes we drive most from Tilburg are to moving company Eindhoven, moving company Breda, moving company Nijmegen, moving company Utrecht and moving company Rotterdam.

Building types and access in Tilburg
Tilburg has three kinds of address, and they come from three different centuries.
Oud-Noord and the textile districts
Small workers’ houses with narrow hallways and steep staircases, opening straight onto the pavement. Modest volumes, longer days, and the moving lift more often than you would expect.
The Spoorzone and the converted factories
High ceilings, freight lifts and shared entrances with building rules. We book the lift and the time slot in advance, because blocking the entrance is not an option here.
Reeshof and the post-war districts
Family houses with a driveway and wide streets. Easy access and more belongings.
Moving service Tilburg
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 Tilburg 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 Tilburg.
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.
