Moving affordably as a student. Find moving companies with student discounts and affordable moving services.
Students move more often than other groups and almost always with a limited budget. The classic student move with friends and a rented van works, but goes wrong more often than you think. Damaged items, a van that is too small or friends who cancel.
A student moving service is specifically tailored to what students need: small volume, affordable rates and flexible planning. Most services work with two movers and a van.
Costs are lower than a standard move: 150 to 600 euros depending on distance and volume.
Student moving service - moving cheaply as a student (per move)
Professional student moving service: 150 to 600 euros all-in. Most practical option.
Rent a van and do it yourself: 60 to 150 euros for the van plus fuel. But you need helpers.
Man-with-bus service: 50 to 80 euros per hour for a single mover with van. Suitable if you help yourself.
A professional service is the best choice if you have furniture, stairs without an elevator or a distance of more than 30 kilometers.
In August, popular student cities such as Amsterdam, Utrecht, Groningen and Leiden are completely turned upside down. Moving companies are full and charge higher rates.
The price difference: a move that costs 250 euros in May can cost 400 to 500 euros in September.
Tips: book four to six weeks in advance, avoid Saturdays, choose a weekday. Is your date flexible? Ask about a discount day or cancellation spot.
| Service | From | To | Unit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Moving student room | €150 | €400 | total |
| Studio verhuizen | €250 | €600 | total |
Ja, veel verhuisbedrijven bieden speciale studentenpakketten aan met lagere tarieven.
Voor een kamerverhuizing betaal je 150 tot 300 euro. Voor een studio of klein appartement 300 tot 600 euro.
Buiten augustus is last-minute boeken vaak mogelijk. In augustus en september is dit praktisch onmogelijk bij de meeste aanbieders.
Een man-met-bus is voldoende als je weinig spullen hebt en zelf meehelpt. Heb je meubels of een hoge verdieping, dan is een team efficienter.
Zelf inpakken, doordeweeks verhuizen, volume verkleinen en meerdere offertes vergelijken zijn de beste manieren om te besparen.
