Moving from Berlin to Kassel: 378 km across the Werra to North Hesse
Moving company Berlin
Across the Werra into Hesse: your move Berlin ↔ Kassel
All the way to the Fulda
A move from Berlin to Kassel takes you through five federal states: from Stromstraße 21 in Moabit, the route runs via the Berlin ring road onto the A2 through Brandenburg and Saxony-Anhalt, at the Wolfsburg/Königslutter interchange onto the A39 past Braunschweig and Salzgitter, and at the Salzgitter junction onto the A7 heading south. After Göttingen and Hann. Münden, the lorry crosses the Werra on the Hedemünden Werra Valley Bridge and reaches Hesse shortly afterwards – after around 378 km you are in Kassel. You receive the fixed price after the survey, whether you are moving to Kassel or back to Berlin.
For the return move from Kassel to Berlin, too, we give a guide price from €1,430; the fixed price becomes binding after a survey and depends on volume, floors and additional services. For the approx. 6 hrs of lorry time including the mandatory break, we also schedule loading and unloading and decide whether unloading takes place the same evening or the next morning. We are liable under the German Commercial Code (§ 451e HGB: €620 per cubic metre); for valuables there is optional additional protection. On request we also take care of furniture assembly, packing and interim storage.

What the route to North Hesse demands
From the Spree to the Fulda – and back again
We come from Berlin (Stromstraße 21, Moabit) and drive right to the door in Kassel – whether a period building in the Vorderer Westen, a flat in Wehlheiden or a house in Bad Wilhelmshöhe below the Bergpark. The around 378 km run over three motorways and, after Hann. Münden, across the state border into Hesse; removal lorries over 3.5 t may drive no faster than 80 km/h (§ 18 (5) StVO), and after four and a half hours of driving time a break is mandatory. All this is included in the fixed price after a survey, and liability is governed by the HGB – for the move to Kassel as well as back to Berlin.

planning Berlin ↔ Kassel
Alongside the move Berlin Kassel, we offer furniture assembly, kitchen assembly and clearance. If you only want to bring a few boxes or single pieces of furniture to North Hesse, you can use a shared load and save costs. For students at the University of Kassel we plan small moves with little volume. We apply for parking restriction zones in both cities: in Berlin at the district office, in Kassel at the responsible road traffic authority.

North Hesse and Berlin: your questions
Why people move to Kassel – and back to Berlin
A move from Berlin to Kassel often has a professional reason: a new job in North Hesse's only major city, at the University of Kassel, founded in 1971 as Germany's first comprehensive university (Gesamthochschule), or in the cultural sector of a city that hosts the documenta every five years. Others are drawn by the Bergpark Wilhelmshöhe, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2013, or by being close to family in the region. Our team organises this move door to door with a fixed price after a survey.
The return move from Kassel to Berlin has its own reasons too: the capital's larger job market, its cultural life or family ties that lead back to neighbourhoods such as Kreuzberg, Neukölln or Prenzlauer Berg. After graduating in Kassel, many also start their careers in Berlin. Both directions follow the same process, with the same liability under the HGB and a fixed price after a survey.
Via the A2, A39 and A7 and across the Werra into Hesse
From Moabit it is around 378 km: via the A100, AVUS and Berlin ring road onto the A2 to the Wolfsburg/Königslutter interchange, on the A39 along the southern edge of Braunschweig and past Salzgitter to the Salzgitter junction, and then on the A7 heading south – via Seesen, Northeim and Göttingen to Hann. Münden. The lorry crosses the Werra on the Hedemünden Werra Valley Bridge, Hesse begins near Niestetal, and then come the Kassel exits such as Kassel-Nord and Kassel-Ost. By lorry this takes approx. 6 hrs including the 45-minute break required after four and a half hours of driving time (EU Regulation 561/2006).
In Berlin everything is first packed, secured and loaded before heading towards Kassel or – on the return move – towards Berlin. Because driving and loading take up a large part of the day, we decide at the survey whether unloading and assembly take place the same evening or the next morning. That way the sequence of loading, driving and unloading stays predictable for you.
Arriving in Kassel or Berlin: districts and housing market
Kassel lies on the Fulda and is divided into 23 districts. Newcomers move, for example, to the Vorderer Westen with its period buildings, to Wehlheiden, to Bad Wilhelmshöhe below the Bergpark with the Hercules monument and water features, or to quieter districts such as Kirchditmold and Harleshausen; Bettenhausen lies to the east and Niederzwehren to the south. For every address we clarify access, parking restrictions and carrying routes before moving day.
The Bergpark above Bad Wilhelmshöhe rises steeply; on the hillside locations at the edge of the city, too, we plan carrying routes and vehicle size in advance. If you later move back to Berlin, the housing market there is tight, so an early search pays off. We schedule the date around the key handover and reassemble the furniture in your new flat.
Costs of moving to the Fulda
Whether a shared-flat room near the university or a period flat in the Vorderer Westen: for a move from Berlin to Kassel and from Kassel to Berlin, it is above all the volume that determines the price. As a guide:
| Type of home | Load volume | Price from |
|---|---|---|
| Shared-flat room / 1 room | 10–15 m³ | from €350 |
| 2 rooms | 20–25 m³ | from €590 |
| 3 rooms | 30–40 m³ | from €890 |
| 4 rooms | 45–60 m³ | from €1,290 |
| Detached house | from 60 m³ | after a survey |
For the around 378 km via the A2, A39 and A7, a guide price from €1,430 applies in each direction. Your binding quote follows a free survey.
What the price for Kassel depends on
The volume is decisive, because it determines the lorry and the team size. For a long-distance move Berlin–Kassel, there are also the around 378 km, which have to be covered in one day. After that, what counts are floors, lift and carrying routes at both addresses, plus extras such as furniture assembly or a parking restriction zone. Small quantities become cheaper with a shared load.
