Moving from Eindhoven to Amsterdam
Eindhoven to Amsterdam links the country's two big innovation hubs — the Brainport tech region in the south, home to TU/e, ASML's neighbours, and Dutch Design Week, and the startup, creative, and finance scene up in the capital. It's a classic career move: designers and engineers heading north, and just as often the other way. MoverMate runs it with a van and driver at €49 an hour, transportation billed apart, and a 1.5-hour minimum, meaning €73.50 is the least a booking comes to. The drive is roughly 125 kilometres straight up the A2 — about an hour and a half — with a driver on board every time and no self-drive option, all handled over WhatsApp and with more than 800 moves already behind us under our NIWO licence (vergunning beroepsgoederenvervoer).

How much does it cost to move from Eindhoven to Amsterdam?
It's €49 an hour for the van and driver, transportation costs separate, with the 1.5-hour minimum putting the floor at €73.50. On this route, a single-room or studio move usually comes to somewhere around €175 plus transportation costs — loading in Eindhoven, the roughly hour-and-a-half run up the A2, and unloading in Amsterdam. Since you're paying for time, the final figure depends on the size of the move and how ready everything is to load, and you get an estimate before booking.
Is this a common move for tech and design professionals?
Very much — it's one of the most common reasons we run this route. Eindhoven's Brainport region is a magnet for engineers and designers, and plenty finish at TU/e or the Design Academy and head to Amsterdam for a role in its startups, agencies, or bigger tech firms. A single van easily carries a young professional's setup — bed, desk, monitors, a bike, and boxes (20-30) — and because you book straight over WhatsApp in plain English, it suits people relocating for a new job without wanting a drawn-out process.
How fast can MoverMate arrange an Eindhoven to Amsterdam move?
Often within a day or two, and sometimes same-day if there's a slot. Career moves tend to hinge on a start date or a lease handover, so speed matters — message us on WhatsApp or call us with your date and what you're moving, and we'll come back quickly with availability and an estimate. There's no long enquiry form or multi-day quote wait; it's built to be fast.
Does MoverMate also move from Amsterdam to Eindhoven?
Yes, and it's far from a one-way route. Brainport pulls hard in the other direction — ASML, high-tech manufacturing, and the wider Eindhoven tech scene draw people out of Amsterdam just as steadily as the capital draws them in. So we run Amsterdam-to-Eindhoven trips at the same €49 an hour, whether you're moving south for a tech role or heading home to Brabant. Send both addresses over WhatsApp and we'll price it either way. It's one route on our wider intercity moving service.
Is MoverMate a good option for a first solo move to Amsterdam?
It's a good fit for a first proper move. If this is your first time organising one on your own, there's not much to it: pack your things, have them at street level, if elevator is missing, when the van arrives, and we handle the driving and the carrying between your door and the van — no stairs-hauling or hoisting through windows, just a straightforward load and unload. Transparent hourly pricing and a real person on WhatsApp take the guesswork out of it, which is exactly what you want when you're settling into the capital for the first time. Our moving service in Amsterdam and moving service in Eindhoven pages cover each end.
