An international removals
An international moving company is just like any other professional moving company in the Netherlands. The only difference is that international moving company, as the name suggests, specializes in international removals.
Moving abroad can be extremely complicated and often requires the necessary paperwork. An international mover knows exactly how an international move works and can therefore not only help you with practical matters, but can also assist you with administrative matters.
An international move
For international moves, we always advise customers to hire an international moving company. Fortunately, there are numerous international moving companies in the Netherlands that specialize in international removals and these moving companies are happy to take care of your international move.
When you hire an international moving company, you can rest assured that your belongings are in good hands.
What kind of international move is it?
Moving abroad is always different. Just like every move in the Netherlands is always different. When you are going to move, it is therefore always important for the moving company to know what kind of international move it concerns.
Are you a student planning an international move? Are you an expat and do you often have to move internationally? Will you finally take that one step as a family and move abroad? Or is it about company relocations?
A move is stressful
Moving internationally can be extremely stressful. You may have moved within the Netherlands before and already know how hectic such a move can be, so you can probably imagine the chaos an international move can bring.
International movers provide the right guidance.
Moving internationally entails even more matters that have to be arranged during or, in fact, especially before the move.
That is why it is very important when moving internationally that you are provided with expert advice at all times. This is part of the relocation service of the relocation company that is experienced with international relocations.
The right moving service
Yes, one international moving company is of course not the other international moving company, but if you have used the moving service of an international mover before, you know that an enormous burden falls off your shoulders during international moving.
Moving your household effects abroad
The moving vans are probably already ready and you can be sure that the moving company will safely transport your belongings abroad.
The movers can also help you pack your belongings and moving boxes. If you want this, you might also be able to hire an unpacking service so that you really don't have to do anything yourself! This makes moving even easier.
Customs formalities
As you have read before, moving internationally can require the necessary paperwork. Unfortunately, these customs formalities occur more often than you think.. even if you continue to live within Europe. When you move, good preparation is therefore extremely important.
A (recognised) international moving company
You may already know the Dutch trade association of Erkende Verhuizers and you may not know it at all. As you know, in the Netherlands you can hire a moving company when you move.
Moving with Recognized Movers
When a moving company joins the trade association, it can offer its customers many benefits and guarantees. You can think of, for example, a guarantee certificate, very good insurance and certain services.
This is very nice for the customers, but of course it also entails the necessary costs. The moving company must pay certain costs to the organization and these costs are always passed on to the customer. That is why these moving companies are often slightly more expensive.
Removals with non-recognized moving companies
For removals in the Netherlands and for removals abroad, you can also opt for moving companies that have not joined the trade association. Are these moving companies less good? Are the services different? We are happy to explain it to you.
Why doesn't a moving company join?
Non Recognized Movers who choose not to join often do not do so because of the high costs. They do not have the money or simply do not want to pay these extra costs.
However, with these movers it is important to carefully read their terms and conditions and to inform yourself well with regard to their insurance policies. That way you know exactly where you stand.
