Carry it yourself or call in the professionals? The honest comparison

Honestly compared

Unsere Firma Professional on-site moving solutions with secure planning, flexible services and on-time execution.

A furniture transport by a moving team not only saves you time, it also protects your belongings from damage. Our moving professionals know the right lifting techniques for bulky furniture such as wardrobes, sofas or pianos and use high-quality packing material. With straps, blankets and dollies, even large pieces get through narrow stairwells and door frames without damaging walls and surfaces. That way you avoid scratches, dents or even expensive repairs to your property or the building.

Besides the physical work, we also take care of planning your furniture transport: we choose the right vehicle, plan the route and timing and, on request, apply for the parking restriction zone. For a private move, dismantling and assembly are added. If you drive yourself, you need a class B driving licence for a van up to 3.5 t and at least C1 for larger lorries – and you have to organise movers, straps and blankets yourself.

THE DIFFERENCE

What professionals do differently

Four points compared

A self-organised move with friends can be cheaper – until something breaks or the day takes longer than planned. With a professional furniture transport you pay for four things: statutory liability, suitable equipment, well-practised routines and a price that is fixed in advance. We are based in Berlin (Stromstraße 21) and handle single items as well as entire households. We arrange the date according to your plans; we check short-notice requests depending on our workload.

Liability

The moving company is liable under the HGB up to €620 per cubic metre of load space. If friends help as a favour, this claim does not exist.

Equipment

We bring straps, blankets, dollies, a sack truck and tools for dismantling – you do not need to borrow or buy anything.

Time

A well-practised crew loads in a fixed order and secures the load. This saves trips and is easier on backs and furniture.

Tax

With professionals, 20 % of the labour costs reduce your tax, up to €4,000 a year (§ 35a EStG). This is not possible with a DIY move.

DIY OR PROFESSIONAL

What fits when

Not every transport needs a moving company. These six situations show when doing it yourself is enough and when a professional furniture transport is worthwhile.

A few boxes

A few boxes and a shelf fit in an estate car. Here your own trip is often enough – with a helping hand.

Ground floor

Without stairs and with a short distance to the vehicle, doing it yourself is realistic. From the third floor without a lift it becomes exhausting.

Large van

Up to 3.5 t, a class B car licence is enough. For a larger lorry you need at least C1 – which many people do not have.

Heavy items

Wardrobe, washing machine or piano: this is where straps and carrying technique pay off – and the liability.

Long distance

Over several hundred kilometres, driving time, the return journey and an overnight stay are added. For a few pieces of furniture, a shared load is then often cheaper.

Little time

If you have to work on moving day or cannot find helpers, it is better to book professionals – dismantling, transport and reassembly then go ahead without you.

THE THIRD OPTION

Neither DIY nor a whole lorry

Small move, small price

A shared load is the middle way between a hire van and a removal lorry of your own: your individual pieces of furniture, appliances or boxes travel with other orders on the same route. You pay for the load space you need and do not have to organise a vehicle or helpers. We agree collection and delivery within a time window instead of on a fixed day.

For long-distance moves over long distances, too, we plan packing, route and delivery date in advance in the quote. Talk to us if you want to transport items with special requirements such as antiques or delicate designer furniture.
