Moving Company Utrecht
Move Now NL is a moving company based in Oostzaan that moves households, student rooms and small offices to, from and within Utrecht. Get an instant estimate online, then a fixed price quote on WhatsApp based on the details you share.
Utrecht is a compact city with a medieval core, a big university and the busiest railway junction in the country. That mix means plenty of moves: students swapping rooms, young professionals leaving Amsterdam for more space, and families heading to the newer districts on the western side of the city.
We are based in Oostzaan, north of Amsterdam, and we do not run an office or crews in Utrecht. Amsterdam to Utrecht is a short, straightforward drive, which makes it one of the easiest intercity moves we plan, whether you arrive in the city, leave it or change address inside it.
Our two padded vans, a VW Crafter and a Ford Transit, handle a room full of furniture, a flat, a small family home or boxes for a business. Tell us about the floors, the street and the larger items on WhatsApp, and we turn your estimate into a fixed price quote.
Why customers moving in Utrecht choose us
A short hop from Amsterdam
Utrecht sits close to our base region, so one crew can load in the morning, drive down and still unload comfortably within the same day.
Student and starter moves
Not every move is a whole house. We carry a bed, a desk and some boxes just as readily as a full flat, and we plan the van size around you.
Disassembly for tight spaces
Canal houses and older flats have narrow stairs. We take wardrobes and bed frames apart, carry them down, and rebuild them at the new address.
Evenings and weekends
We are open 24/7, so a move after work or on Saturday is realistic. Weekend moves carry a 10% surcharge.
Price you can see first
Use the homepage calculator for an immediate estimate. We then confirm a fixed price quote on WhatsApp, built from the information you provide.
Bilingual team
Utrecht has many international students and staff. We speak English and Dutch, so questions about access or timing never get lost in translation.
Moving in Utrecht by district
From historic wharves to new-build suburbs, Utrecht districts ask for very different preparation.
Binnenstad
The old centre around the Oudegracht has wharf-level cellars and narrow streets with limited vehicle access. Expect a carry from the nearest legal stopping place, and plan any bulky furniture with that in mind.
Wittevrouwen
An elegant district just east of the station with terraced houses and tall townhouses. Stairs are steep and winding, so measure turns and landings before large pieces go up or down.
Lombok
A lively, multicultural neighbourhood west of the station with compact rows of houses and flats. Streets are busy and narrow, so a clear arrival time helps keep the van from blocking neighbours.
Oost
Includes Rijnsweerd and the area near the Science Park and university campus. Student rooms, flats and family homes mix here, so moves range from a single bike and bed to a full household.
Overvecht
A large northern district with many post-war high-rise flats and galleries. Lifts are common but can be shared between many households, so ask your building about reserving one.
Leidsche Rijn
A large new-build district on the western edge with modern family homes and apartment blocks. Streets are wide and access is easy, so moves are mostly about volume and floor numbers.
Kanaleneiland
A post-war district south-west of the centre with long blocks of flats set among green strips. Stairwells are plain and straightforward, but upper floors may be several flights up without a lift.
Vleuten-De Meern
Two village-style areas now part of the city, with newer houses and quiet streets. Driveways and parking are generally easy, which keeps the carry short and the loading simple.
Practical tips for moving in Utrecht
Check access to the old centre
Parts of the Binnenstad limit vehicles, so ask your municipality (gemeente) about a parking reservation or permit for the moving van and what applies on your street.
Mind the wharf cellars
Wharf cellars sit below street level behind a few steps. Tell us about them early, since heavy items such as a fridge or washing machine need extra planning on stairs.
Time student moves with the calendar
Room changes cluster around the start and end of the academic year, and around month-end. Book a week or two ahead around those dates to find a slot you like.
Use rail-friendly timing
If you are arriving from elsewhere by train, plan to meet us at the new address in the afternoon. Keys, parking and unloading all go better when you are already on site.
Photograph your biggest items
Send photos of the sofa, wardrobe or desk with its measurements. It lets us confirm quickly that everything fits our vans and whether disassembly saves time.
