Are you looking for a recognized moving company? Discover what sets certified movers apart and find certified companies near you.
A recognized moving company is affiliated with a trade organization and meets established quality and behavioral standards. In the Netherlands, EVO Recognized Movers is the main quality mark organization.
Recognized movers are audited periodically. Employees must be certified. The company must be demonstrably insured against transport damage.
The distinction is relevant because anyone with a van can call themselves a mover. A recognized company offers guarantees that an unknown company cannot offer.

Certainty about insurance. Recognized movers are required to have transport insurance.
A clear complaints procedure. If you have any problems, you can contact the independent complaints committee of the trade association.
Professional employees trained in the safe movement of furniture and valuables.
Transparency about prices and conditions. Less chance of hidden costs.
The disadvantage is that recognized companies are slightly more expensive on average, but the additional price pays for itself if damage is avoided.
There is a public register on the website of EVO Approved Movers. If the company is not listed, the quality mark is not valid.
Be alert to companies that claim a quality mark without actually being affiliated. Always verify via the official register.
In addition to the quality mark, a permanent office address, a Chamber of Commerce registration and demonstrable assessments are good indicators of reliability.
