Moving from Groningen to Amsterdam

MoverMate moves you from Groningen to Amsterdam for €49 per hour (van + driver), with fuel charged separately and a 1.5-hour minimum — so the smallest job starts at €73.50. It's roughly 185 kilometres down through Flevoland, about a two-hour drive, and we've completed 800+ moves as a NIWO-licensed transport service (vergunning beroepsgoederenvervoer). Most people we take on this route are graduates, professionals and expats: a room or studio's worth of furniture and boxes, one van, one driver, booked in a few messages on WhatsApp. You never drive - the driver is always included.

On a long intercity route like this, a typical single-room move works out to about four hours of work — roughly €196, excluding transporation costs — covering loading in Groningen, the two-hour drive, and unloading in Amsterdam. Your total depends on how much you're moving, the access at both ends, and how long loading takes, so we confirm an estimate before the day.

The drive is about two hours each way over roughly 185 kilometres, down the A7/A6 through Flevoland. A single room or studio is usually a 4 hours from pickup to drop-off. A full apartment runs longer (5 hours), depending on how much is loaded and how easy the access is at each address.

One van comfortably holds a room or studio's worth of furniture and boxes — a bed, desk, wardrobe, kitchen goods, and the usual contents of a student place or one-bedroom flat. Loading and unloading are at street level, in case elevator is missing. During peak periods, we carry between the van and your door, not up and down staircases or through windows. If you're an expat, professional, student or recent graduate, this is the same setup as our student moving service, just over a longer distance.

Groningen's side is usually the easy one — you can often load close to the door. Amsterdam is where access needs planning Send us the destination address when you book and we'll work out the closest legal spot to unload. There's more on the city end on our moving service in Amsterdam page.

Yes. The same van, driver, and €49-per-hour rate apply in the other direction — whether you're heading back north after your studies or relocating for work. Message us the pickup and drop-off and we'll quote the return trip the same way.
