#Shared Load

Room in a shared flat, little furniture, a tight budget: how students move with a shared load, why the start of term needs early planning and what you can do yourself.

Declutter first, state the volume accurately, be flexible on the date, pack yourself and clarify access: with these levers your shared load gets even cheaper.

A part load suits a few cubic metres, a long route and a flexible date. For 5 m³, HGB liability is capped at €3,100 – insure valuable items separately.

What is a shared load, what does it cost, how long does delivery take, who is liable for damage? The most important questions answered briefly and clearly.

What a fixed price for a shared load covers, why it is based on your furniture list and when it may change – for example with more volume or extra services.

Volume asked for, fixed price in writing, HGB liability explained, time window in the contract: how to spot a reputable shared load provider before booking.

Who opens the door if you are not there at collection? What if the new flat is not free yet? How to organise access, a parking space and storage for a shared load.

Too tight a schedule, an estimated volume, valuables in the load, damage reported too late: typical mistakes with a shared load and how to avoid them.

How a shared load with a moving company differs from a private lift: professionals carry and secure, liability follows the HGB, and the price is fixed in advance.

With a part load you pay for the load space your belongings take up. The price depends on volume, route, floor and how flexible your delivery date is.

What to do before the enquiry, up to collection and on delivery: furniture list, labelling, access, valuables and the deadlines for reporting damage.

From giving notice to registering: the order in which to plan a shared load – furniture list, enquiry, time window, parking restriction, collection and delivery.
