Moving to Fürth: Costs Process & Districts

Fürth, called the cloverleaf city (Kleeblattstadt) because of its coat of arms, is divided into three city districts with 18 statistical districts. The old town around the Fürther Freiheit and the Grüner Markt and the city centre offer short distances; the Südstadt is characterised by late-19th-century old buildings. Poppenreuth and Ronhof are quieter residential areas, and the Hardhöhe in the west is a large residential estate.

Burgfarrnbach, with its palace, and Unterfarrnbach lie in the west, Stadeln and Vach in the north; there is also Dambach. There is a suitable district for every lifestyle – urban, green or historic. For the move, the specific address counts; we plan access and floor for your private move in advance.

We do not give specific rents in Fürth, because they depend heavily on location and condition. Companies headquartered in Fürth include the safety equipment maker uvex, the Leonhard Kurz Stiftung, the toy manufacturers Simba-Dickie and Bruder and the confectionery manufacturer Trolli; since 2016 the Bavarian State Office for Statistics has also been based here. Via underground line U1 and S-Bahn lines S1 and S6, Fürth is closely connected to Nuremberg; with the U1 you reach Nuremberg's city centre without changing, and commuters often do not need a car of their own.

For leisure there is the Stadtpark, the Jewish Museum of Franconia and the old town with the Fürther Freiheit and Grüner Markt; the Playmobil FunPark is in neighbouring Zirndorf. The compact size of the city means short distances, and the proximity to Nuremberg means big-city amenities. We accompany your move to Fürth from the survey to reassembly.

Saving costs starts with the right planning. Our prices start at €354 for a 1-room flat. For 2 rooms the starting price is €589, for 3 rooms €884 and for 4 rooms €1,309. We calculate larger properties such as villas or houses individually. Long-distance moves are no problem either – here we charge from €4.10 per kilometre.

First, the volume counts – the more household goods, the higher the costs. The distance is charged from €4.10/km. A floor without a lift and a required parking restriction zone also increase the effort. Furniture assembly and part load are also worth considering as additional services.

Every move is different – that is why we offer flexible services.

1. Furniture transport – for single pieces of furniture or entire flats.
2. Moving with assembly – including assembly and dismantling.
3. Private move – personal and reliable.
4. Company relocation – without interrupting operations.
5. Clearance – quick and discreet.
6. Part load – the affordable choice.

We handle moves from Berlin (Stromstraße 21), right across Germany. You can see places with their own pages in the locations overview, and details on long routes under Long-distance moves.

In Fürth, the road traffic authority within the road traffic office (Straßenverkehrsamt) is responsible for traffic regulations and signage. According to the BayernPortal, it regulates moving and stationary traffic; you can find it at Schwabacher Straße 170, 90763 Fürth, by phone on 0911 974-2250 or by email at [email protected]. On the city's website, the road traffic office states opening hours by appointment. Ask there about the application, lead time and fees for a parking restriction on moving day before scheduling, because the city sets these details.

Residents' parking: anyone moving to Fürth can obtain a residents' parking permit on application. According to the city, it entitles you to park in the assigned area but does not guarantee a specific parking space. There are overviews for the city centre, the Südstadt and the outer areas as well as a street index; information is available from [email protected] or 0911 974-2257.

Roadworks on the way: the city reports current roadworks and closures on fuerth.de. Closed junctions, diversions or changed one-way systems can alter access to the city centre for large removal vehicles; we therefore check the roadworks situation before the appointment.

The city also lists several multi-storey car parks, for example at the Stadthalle, in the Hornschuch-Center and on Mathildenstraße. Further guidance is provided on our pages Moving company Fürth and Parking restriction zone.

Anyone moving into a home in Fürth must, according to the city, register with the registration authority within two weeks of moving in. The two citizens' centres are responsible: Bürgerzentrum Nord at Stadelner Hauptstraße 96 (telephone 0911 974-2395) and Bürgerzentrum Süd at Schwabacher Straße 170 (telephone 0911 974-2323), both reachable via [email protected]. The city offers electronic residence registration and on-site appointments.

Bulky waste: twice a year you can apply for a chargeable bulky waste collection, according to the city fastest online. The municipal waste management collects for a call-out fee of 20 euros; disposal at the recycling centres is free of charge. How to prepare for the collection:

• Put out bulky items, freely accessible, by 6.30 am, preferably on private land.
• Sort into four categories: wooden furniture, bulky household items, electrical appliances and metals.
• Bulky items are collected at ground level, free of steps, up to 15 metres from private land.
• A contact person must be on site during the collection; you pay the fee in cash on site.

You can offer furniture in good condition on the city's swap and give-away exchange. Contact: bulky waste management, 0911 974-2091, [email protected]. In the guide Living in Fürth you will find further tips for the first few weeks.
