Moving to a new place is always exciting ― especially if you're moving from overseas. Whether you're planning to bring all of your furniture along or just packing the basics, we've listed several services that will come in handy for your move.

International Relocation

Local Moving Companies

Self-Storage

Parking Permits

Did you know you can reserve a parking spot for your moving van on the day of your move? While it is possible to personally arrange a Halteverbotszone (lit. 'forbidden parking zone') for the day of your move at your local police station, it's easier to contact a local moving company that offers this service, as they have access to the official traffic signs that are required. This service usually costs around €100, depending on the duration and location of your move.

Recycling

Paper, bulk waste, electronics and green waste: when you're moving houses, you probably don't want to take everything with you. Hamburg has twelve recycling points where you can dispose of many different kinds of waste. Depending on the type and amount of waste, you may do so for free or for a fee. Furniture in good condition may be brought to one of the Stilbruch stores in Wandsbek or Altona.
