Cities
Our service areas at a glance
Each city has its own characteristics – old buildings, sloping ground, narrow city-center streets, or strict permit rules for no-parking zones. The city pages explain what needs to be considered in each case.
Herne
Wanne-Eickel, Sodingen, and Baukau are only a few minutes from our location – moves here can often be completed in a single day.
Gelsenkirchen
From Buer to Ückendorf: multi-family houses, established residential areas, and often tight parking situations in front of the building.
Witten
Annen, Herbede, and Bommern – partly sloping terrain and narrow access roads that must be considered when planning the moving truck.
Hattingen
Historic old town with narrow lanes and timber framing, plus residential areas in Blankenstein and Welper. The access route determines the schedule here.
Essen
From Rüttenscheid to Steele: dense urban traffic, many apartment buildings, and no-parking zones that should be applied for early.
Dortmund
We regularly carry out moves to and from Dortmund – from the city center to the southern suburbs.
Düsseldorf
Long-distance moves between the Ruhr area and Düsseldorf are part of our everyday work – including business moves and part-load transport.
Köln
Whether it is a residential move or a company relocation: moves between the Ruhr area and Cologne are planned with a fixed date and fixed team.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about our service areas
In which cities is D&E Umzüge active?
Our core area is the central Ruhr region: Bochum, Herne, Gelsenkirchen, Witten, Hattingen, and Essen. We also regularly carry out moves to and from Dortmund, Düsseldorf, and Cologne. Long-distance moves within Germany are possible on request.
Do you also handle moves from one city to another?
Yes, that is the most common scenario. Whether from Bochum to Essen, Herne to Witten, or from the Ruhr area to another region – inspection, the fixed-price offer, and completion always follow the same process.
Is my location not listed?
The city pages cover our most common service areas, but not all of them. We work throughout the Ruhr area and North Rhine-Westphalia. Just ask us – we will tell you openly whether and when we can take on your move.
Does the scope of services change depending on the city?
No. We offer all services – from private moves to storage and clearance – in every service area. Only the local conditions differ, such as access, stairwells, parking situations, and processing times for no-parking permits.
How early should I enquire?
Four to six weeks of lead time is comfortable, especially at the end of the month and quarter. Short-notice appointments are often still possible – it is worth asking.
