Which districts of Bochum do we work in?
Bochum is not a uniform piece of territory. Between the historic buildings in Ehrenfeld, the hillside locations in Stiepel and Dahlhausen and the narrow streets of the Wattenscheid town centre, access, stairwell and parking situation differ markedly – and that is precisely what determines how long a move takes. Because we are based here ourselves, we know the routes and plan the moving day accordingly.

Planning
What matters when moving in Bochum
Historic buildings and stairwells
In Ehrenfeld, Altenbochum and the Wattenscheid town centre many apartments are in older buildings: narrow stairwells, winding steps, no lift. During the survey we establish whether a furniture lift would shorten the day – and bring one along if needed.
Apply for the no-parking zone in good time
A no-parking zone in Bochum requires a permit from the city, and it has to be requested with lead time – at short notice it gets tight. We handle the application and the setting up of the signs so that the truck stands right at the door instead of two streets further away.
Semester changeover and short distances
Around Ruhr University in Querenburg, many people move at once at the start of the semester – dates then become scarce. In return, the distances within Bochum are short: most moves in the city area can be completed in a single day.

Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions about moving in Bochum
What influences the cost of a move in Bochum?
The decisive factors are the volume of goods, the floor and whether a lift is available, access to the building, the distance between the old and new address, and the extent of additional services – such as packing, furniture assembly, storage or a no-parking zone. We do not quote flat rates, because no move is like another: after the free survey you receive a binding fixed price that contains all agreed services.
How far in advance should I request the moving date?
Four to six weeks of lead time is comfortable, particularly towards the end of the month, at the quarter change and around the start of the semester at Ruhr University. Short-notice dates can often still be arranged – just enquire, and we will tell you openly what is possible.
Do you apply for the no-parking zone in Bochum?
Yes. We handle the permit with the city of Bochum and put up the signs in good time before the moving day – at the old address and, if necessary, at the new one too. The only important thing is that we know early enough, since the permit needs lead time.
Do you also move from Bochum to other cities?
Yes. Alongside moves within Bochum we regularly move into the surrounding region – to Herne, Gelsenkirchen, Witten, Hattingen and Essen – as well as nationwide. The process stays the same: survey, fixed-price quote, fixed date.
Is my furniture insured during the move?
Yes, transport insurance is included with every job. For particularly valuable individual items – such as a piano or works of art – we discuss in advance how they will be transported and additionally secured.
Can I commission the move and the clearance together?
That is in fact the normal case. Everything that does not come with you is cleared directly and properly disposed of, and the apartment is handed over swept clean. Both run through the same team and on the same date, so you only have to hand over the apartment once.
Do you dismantle and reassemble the kitchen and furniture?
Yes. Furniture and kitchen assembly are part of our services and are shown as a separate item in the quote. You decide whether you want the complete service or just transport and carrying support.
