Narrow streets, tall apartment buildings and little room for the truck
Scheveningen is a district of The Hague with very different faces. In the old village and in Duindorp the houses stand close together, with narrow streets and little room for a large truck. Along the boulevard and around the harbour many people live in apartments, often high up and with a lift that is not suited to every wardrobe.
In Belgisch Park, Duinoord and the Statenkwartier we move people out of stately buildings with steep staircases. We have a plan for every situation: carrying through the stairwell, a moving lift (furniture hoist) at the façade, or a loading spot a little further along the street. We decide that in advance, not on the day itself.
Beach season, sea wind and parking pressure
In the beach season, from spring well into autumn, Scheveningen is busy. Beachgoers, tourists and events fill the boulevard and the car parks, and a moving truck outside your door is then anything but a given. That is why we apply to the municipality for a parking exemption in advance and agree the start time with you, so that we stay ahead of the worst of the crowds.
The sea is close by, and you notice that on moving day. Sea wind, sand and salty air are no friends of wooden and polished furniture. That is why, with us, sofas, wardrobes and tables go into moving blankets and film before they leave the house, and we load without delay, so that your household contents are outside for as short a time as possible.
This is how moving with us in Scheveningen works
You fill in the quote form or call us Mon–Fri between 08:00 and 18:00. We get in touch within 24 hours. After that we visit you with no obligation or do a video walkthrough, so that we can see what fits through the stairwell and how close the truck can get to your door.
You then receive a clear fixed price, with no hourly billing and no surprises afterwards. If a moving lift is needed in your street in Scheveningen, the hire is included in that price. We also apply to the municipality for the parking exemption on your behalf.
On moving day our team is at your door on time with truck and materials. At the end we walk through your home together with you. Only then are we finished.
