Moving from Enschede to Den Haag

A move from Enschede to Den Haag crosses almost the entire width of the country — from Twente near the German border to the North Sea coast. It is a route we run often for University of Twente graduates, professionals and expats heading west into The Hague's world of ministries, international courts and NGOs. MoverMate covers it at €49 an hour for the van and driver, with transport costs counted separately and a 1.5-hour minimum, so pricing never starts below €73.50. The drive is roughly 210 kilometres — about two hours fifteen along the A1 and A12 — and every booking is handled the way we have handled 800-plus before: NIWO-licensed (vergunning beroepsgoederenvervoer), one van, one included driver, arranged from quote to booking over WhatsApp. There is no self-drive option — the driver is part of every move.

- Around 210 km , about two hours fifteen on the A1 and A12

The rate is €49 an hour for the van and driver, with transport counted separately and a 1.5-hour minimum of €73.50. On a cross-country route the drive is the largest single block of time, so the total sits well above what a same-city move costs.

A room or studio is typically a four-hour job once you count loading in Enschede, the drive, and unloading in Den Haag — around €196 plus transport costs.

A one-bedroom flat usually runs five to six hours, so roughly €245 to €294 plus transport costs.

The exact total depends on how much you are moving and how quickly it loads. We agree an estimate before the day, so there are no surprises when the van arrives. Send both addresses on WhatsApp and we come back with a figure for your specific move.

Yes. Even with a two-hour drive each way, a typical room or studio move is comfortably a single-day job. We only provide same-day delivery, starting reasonably early so there's no rush at either end, drive straight through on the A1 and A12, and unload the same afternoon. Den Haag's residential streets are mostly calm and tram-lined rather than canal-tight, so getting the van close to the door is usually manageable once you tell us the address.

Because there's no popping back for a forgotten box on a 180-kilometre route, a bit of prep pays off. Have everything packed, labelled, and brought down to street level in case elevator is missing before the van arrives. Take apart large furniture where you can, keep essentials and documents with you, and flag anything bulky in advance so the van is loaded in the right order for a long drive.

Very much so. Den Haag is one of the most international cities in the country — embassies, the international courts, and a large expat community — and a good share of our Enschede runs are University of Twente students and internationals relocating for work or study. Everything is arranged in plain English over WhatsApp, the pricing stays transparent at €49 an hour, and there's no long paperwork trail — which is exactly what most people want when they're changing countries and cities at once. Our moving service in Den Haag page has more on the destination.

Yes — the route runs both directions at the same €49 hourly rate. We get plenty of return trips east: people leaving The Hague for Twente, or students heading home after finishing at the University of Twente. Send both addresses over WhatsApp and we'll price the move whichever way it's going. It's one of many routes on our intercity moving service, and you can see the eastern end on our moving service in Enschede page.
