As your moving company in Berlin Wittenau, we work in our own neighbourhood: our head office is at Thyssenstraße 7-17, 13407 Berlin. We move tenants, families, older people and businesses between Alt-Wittenau, Rathaus Reinickendorf and Borsigwalde. After the free survey you receive a fixed price; a move from a 1-room flat costs from 250 € to 400 €.

How much does a move in Wittenau cost? The short answer
A move in Wittenau costs from 400 € to 750 € for a 2-room flat with Lion Umzüge and from 650 € to 1,100 € for a 3-room flat. Because our vehicles start in the area, the journey hardly matters. What determines the price is the amount of furniture, the floor, the lift, the carrying distance and extra services. After the survey you get a written quote at a fixed price.

Moving company Berlin Wittenau: short distances from Thyssenstraße
According to the route planner, it is only about 3 kilometres from our head office to the centre of Wittenau, around five minutes without traffic. That has two advantages for you. First, the team is on site quickly in the morning, even when the main roads are already busy. Second, we can easily drop by for a survey if you would rather have someone in the flat than a phone call.
Old buildings and estate houses
Around Alt-Wittenau, the old village centre, and towards Borsigwalde there are apartment buildings and estate houses, some with narrow stairs and no lift. Large wardrobes and sofas sometimes only fit through the stairwell when dismantled. That is why we plan tools and time for furniture assembly from the start.
Housing estates between the town hall and the Märkisches Viertel
To the east, Wittenau borders the Märkisches Viertel with its large housing estates. There are usually lifts here, but long distances from the car park to the entrance and property managers with fixed rules for moving days. We clarify in advance whether the lift has to be reserved and where the truck may park.

How your move in Wittenau works
- You can reach us by phone on 030 612 964 73, Monday to Friday from 9 am to 7 pm, or via the enquiry form.
- We come by for a free survey and look at the flat, stairwell and access.
- You receive a written fixed-price quote.
- If you wish, we deliver boxes and take care of the no-parking zone.
- On moving day we protect the stairwell and floors, carry, drive and reassemble at the destination.
- During the final walk-through we settle last wishes and take empty boxes with us if you like.
To make the survey easy to plan, it helps if you make a rough list of the large furniture beforehand and the cellar or attic is accessible. That way we can estimate the volume accurately, and nothing is missing from the fixed-price quote.

A small team with a smaller vehicle is often enough for this. You can read how we handle such jobs under Mini Move Berlin.

Around our head office there are commercial sites with workshops, warehouses and offices. When a business moves here, what matters most is that it can get back to work quickly. We plan such moves with a layout plan and fixed time slots; details can be found on the page Commercial Move Berlin.

Tips for your move in Wittenau
Parking in residential streets
In the residential streets around Alt-Wittenau, parking spaces are usually taken in the evening and early morning. Without a no-parking zone, the truck often has to stand far away, which noticeably lengthens the move. So sort out the zone in good time.
Declutter before the move
Every box that does not come along saves time and money. Sort out the cellar and cupboards four weeks beforehand. Whatever is not allowed in household waste can go to the recycling centre; we clear the rest at the same time if you wish.
Re-registering in your own district
Reinickendorf town hall is located in Wittenau. After moving in, you have two weeks to register at the citizens office; you can book an appointment at any citizens office in Berlin.
From Wittenau to other districts or to Brandenburg
Not every move stays in the north. Many customers move from Wittenau into the city centre, for example to Wedding, Pankow or Charlottenburg, others to the surrounding area such as Oranienburg, Hennigsdorf or Hohen Neuendorf. Little changes for you: we carry out the survey in Wittenau, give you a fixed price and drive to wherever your new home is.
Moves to the Berlin surroundings
For moves to Brandenburg, larger plots, garages and garden sheds are often added to the distance. We plan vehicle and team so that everything is done in one day. How we organise such moves around Berlin is described on the page Regional Moves Berlin.
Long-distance move from Wittenau
If you are going further away, for example to Hamburg, Munich or abroad, we coordinate loading time, route and arrival precisely. The survey in Wittenau remains free of charge, and you also receive a written fixed-price quote for a long-distance move.
Senior moves in Wittenau
Many older people in Wittenau have lived in the same flat for decades. Moving into a smaller flat with a lift, closer to the children or into assisted living is then a big step. We take our time for this, discuss beforehand which furniture is coming along and set up armchair, bed and favourite pieces in the new flat so that everyday life works straight away. Relatives are welcome to join the survey. More under Senior Moves Berlin.
Handing over a flat in Wittenau: what landlords look for
After moving out comes the handover. Many landlords and property managers in Reinickendorf expect the flat to be swept clean, wall plugs removed only if the tenancy agreement says so, and empty cellar and attic compartments. So read your tenancy agreement before the move and clarify open questions with your landlord early on.
Meter readings and keys
When moving out, note the meter readings for electricity, gas and water and take photos of them. Count all keys, including those for the cellar, letterbox and bicycle room. A written handover report signed by both sides protects you from later disputes over the deposit.
What we take care of
We clear the flat completely, dismantle fittings that belong to you and, if you wish, take bulky waste and boxes away. Cleaning the flat and minor repairs are discussed during the survey so that it is clear what is included in the quote.
Wittenau at a glance
Wittenau is an area in the Reinickendorf district and was called Dalldorf until 1905. The village green of Alt-Wittenau is still a reminder of that time. Today the district town hall is here, and with the terminus of the U8 and Wittenau S-Bahn station the area is well connected to the city centre. More in the Wikipedia article Berlin-Wittenau (in German).
Many moves from Wittenau go to neighbouring Tegel or stay in the district, see Moving Company Berlin Reinickendorf. As a moving company in Berlin, however, we work in all areas of the city; the overview is under Moving Company Berlin Districts.
