Moving in Berlin Charlottenburg – experienced moving company in the west

Charlottenburg is one of the most sought-after and traditional districts in Berlin. With its magnificent Gründerzeit buildings, the Kurfürstendamm and Charlottenburg Palace, the district is known as an upmarket residential area. Moves in Charlottenburg require particular sensitivity, as many buildings have narrow stairwells and no lifts. Lion Umzüge knows these challenges and is ideally equipped to transport even heavy furniture safely and without damage.

Moving in Berlin Mitte – your moving partner in the heart of the capital

Berlin Mitte is the vibrant centre of the capital. This is where you find the Brandenburg Gate, the Reichstag, Museum Island and numerous government buildings. Flats in Mitte are in high demand and priced accordingly. Many buildings are historic old buildings or modern new builds with special requirements for a move. Our moving helpers know the typical challenges in Mitte well: narrow stairwells, difficult parking in residential streets and the special requirements when transporting pianos, antiques and other delicate items.

Moving in Berlin Prenzlauer Berg – professional in the trendy neighbourhood

Prenzlauer Berg is one of the liveliest and most popular parts of Berlin. The area is known for its well-preserved Gründerzeit buildings, lively cafés and a young, creative population. Moves in Prenzlauer Berg are often a logistical challenge due to the dense development and high demand for parking spaces. Lion Umzüge organises the necessary no-parking zones and ensures that your move in this sought-after Berlin neighbourhood runs smoothly.

Moving in Berlin Kreuzberg – your removal company in the multicultural neighbourhood

Kreuzberg is known for its multicultural atmosphere, its art scene and its lively markets. In recent years the district has become one of the most sought-after residential areas in Berlin. Moves in Kreuzberg require careful planning due to the narrow streets and heavy traffic. With Lion Umzüge, your move in Kreuzberg is in the best hands – we know the local conditions and ensure an efficient and stress-free process.

Moving in Berlin Neukölln – affordable and reliable

Neukölln stretches from the densely built-up north with Reuterkiez, Schillerkiez and Rixdorf to Britz, Buckow and Rudow with detached houses and the Gropiusstadt estate. In the north there are mostly old buildings with side wings and no lift, and on Karl-Marx-Straße and Sonnenallee there is a lot of delivery traffic during the day. In the Gropiusstadt, on the other hand, it is all about high-rise buildings whose lift should be reserved in advance. We plan the no-parking zone and the number of carriers to suit the address – from the rear building in Rixdorf to the terraced house in Rudow.

Moving in Berlin Spandau – professional on the edge of the city

Spandau lies west of the Havel and is built up very differently, with its old town, the Citadel and areas such as Kladow, Staaken, Hakenfelde or Siemensstadt. The old town has pedestrian zones and narrow access roads, Staaken and Falkenhagener Feld have larger residential complexes, and Kladow and Gatow have many detached houses with gardens. Because the drive from the city centre via Heerstraße or the city motorway takes longer at rush hour, we schedule the start of loading so that moving day remains easy to plan.

Moving in Berlin Pankow – your moving partner in the north

Pankow is the most populous district in Berlin and stretches from Prenzlauer Berg and Weißensee to Buch, Französisch Buchholz and Blankenburg. The moves are correspondingly varied: old buildings without lifts around Kollwitzplatz, estate houses in Niederschönhausen, new-build quarters on the outskirts. In Alt-Pankow and on Berliner Straße there is hardly a free parking space during the day, while in the north the carrying distances across front gardens are often longer. We adapt the vehicle, team and no-parking zone accordingly.

Moving in Berlin Friedrichshain – dynamic and urban

Friedrichshain is one of the youngest and most dynamic districts in Berlin. With its lively club scene, the East Side Gallery and Boxhagener Platz, the district is particularly popular with young people. Moves in Friedrichshain require good planning due to the high population density and busy streets. Lion Umzüge is your experienced partner for moves in Friedrichshain – we ensure a fast and efficient process.

Moving in Berlin Schöneberg – traditional and cosmopolitan

Schöneberg combines the Bavarian Quarter, the area around Winterfeldtplatz and Nollendorfplatz, and the Rote Insel. It is characterised by tall old-building flats with stucco, side wings and rear courtyards, often without a lift. On Wednesdays and Saturdays there is a market on Winterfeldtplatz, when there is hardly any room for a removal van around the square. We take such dates into account in our planning and apply for the no-parking zone in good time, so that large old furniture can be carried to the van over a short distance.

Moving in Berlin Tempelhof – historic and family-friendly

Tempelhof stands for Tempelhofer Feld, the former airport building and residential areas such as the Fliegersiedlung or the area around the Alter Park. In addition to old buildings on Tempelhofer Damm, there are many terraced and estate houses with cellars and attics, for whose storage rooms we plan extra time. On Tempelhofer Damm itself, delivery traffic is heavy, so a no-parking zone is almost always necessary there.

Moving in Berlin Lichtenberg – affordable and well connected

The Lichtenberg district includes such different areas as Karlshorst with villas and old buildings, Rummelsburg with new builds on the water, Fennpfuhl and Neu-Hohenschönhausen with high-rise buildings, and the Weitlingkiez near Lichtenberg station. In the high-rises, use of the lift often has to be agreed with the property management, while in Karlshorst the distances across front gardens are longer. We clarify these points during the on-site survey so that there are no surprises on moving day.

Moving in Berlin Marzahn – professional in the east of the city

Marzahn is characterised by the large housing estates of the 1980s and the Gardens of the World, with the residential areas of Biesdorf and Mahlsdorf on its edge. The apartment blocks usually have lifts, but their cabins are often too small for large wardrobes – in that case we dismantle furniture beforehand or carry it through the stairwell. Many moves go from a prefab block to a house in the surrounding area or, conversely, to a smaller flat; we plan both with the right vehicle and team.

Moving in Berlin Treptow – green and relaxed by the water

Treptow includes Alt-Treptow, Plänterwald, Baumschulenweg, Johannisthal and Adlershof. There are many old buildings by Treptower Park and along the Spree, and new residential quarters with lifts and underground car parks in Johannisthal and Adlershof. In new-build areas we clarify clearance heights and loading zones in advance, and in Alt-Treptow the no-parking zone in the often fully parked residential streets.

Moving in Berlin Köpenick – historic and close to nature

Köpenick lies in the south-east of Berlin between the Dahme, the Spree and the Müggelsee. The old town with its town hall and palace has narrow streets and cobblestones, while Friedrichshagen, Müggelheim and Wendenschloß have many detached houses and villas with gardens. For houses by the water or at the edge of the forest we plan for longer carrying distances and use a smaller vehicle where access is narrow.

Moving in Berlin Reinickendorf – quiet and green in the north

Reinickendorf is Berlin’s northernmost district, with Lake Tegel, the Tegel Forest and areas such as Frohnau, Hermsdorf, Wittenau and the Märkisches Viertel. The Märkisches Viertel has high-rise buildings with lifts, while Frohnau and Hermsdorf have detached houses with large gardens and garages. We plan accordingly: lift reservation in the high-rise, longer carrying distances and more time for the cellar and garage at the house.

Moving in Berlin Steglitz – middle-class and family-friendly

Steglitz is a lively shopping area around Schloßstraße, behind which lie quiet residential streets with old buildings and post-war apartment blocks. On Schloßstraße delivery traffic is heavy, while in the side streets around the Stadtpark a no-parking zone directly in front of the house is often enough. Many moves here are family moves or a switch to a smaller flat in old age – we support both calmly and with plenty of time.

Moving in Berlin Zehlendorf – exclusive and green in the south-west

Zehlendorf is one of the wealthiest and greenest districts in Berlin. With its villa quarters, the Grunewald forest and the lakes in the south-west of the city, the district offers an exclusive residential location. Moves in Zehlendorf require particular sensitivity, as many houses have large gardens and extensive grounds. Lion Umzüge is your experienced partner for moves in Zehlendorf – we ensure a professional and stress-free process.

Moving in Berlin Wilmersdorf – elegant and central

Wilmersdorf is an elegant and centrally located district of Berlin, known for its prestigious Gründerzeit buildings, the Volkspark Wilmersdorf and its upmarket restaurants. The district is particularly popular with professionals and families who appreciate urban life in quieter surroundings. Lion Umzüge carries out moves in Wilmersdorf professionally and reliably.

Moving in Berlin Tegel – practical and well connected

Tegel lies on Lake Tegel in the Reinickendorf district. Around Alt-Tegel and the Greenwichpromenade there are apartment buildings, and towards Konradshöhe and Heiligensee many detached houses. A new urban quarter is being built on the former airport site. For moves in Tegel we plan the approach via the A111 and check access in advance for houses by the water.

Moving in Berlin Moabit – urban and well connected

Moabit is part of the Mitte district, framed by the Spree, the Westhafen Canal and the Berlin-Spandau Ship Canal. Old buildings in the Beusselkiez and Stephankiez are typical, and there is a lot going on around Turmstraße and the Arminius market hall. Many buildings have side wings and no lift. We apply for the no-parking zone, plan enough carriers for the upper floors and take care of walls and stairs in the narrow courtyards.

Moving in Berlin Gesundbrunnen – up-and-coming and diverse

Gesundbrunnen belongs to the Mitte district and stretches from the Brunnenviertel with its apartment blocks from the 1960s and 1970s to the old buildings in the Soldiner Kiez and around Badstraße. Traffic is heavy at Gesundbrunnen station and on Brunnenstraße, and in the residential complexes lifts often have to be reserved in advance. We coordinate both with you and the property management.

Moving in Berlin Hellersdorf – quiet and family-friendly

Hellersdorf is part of the Marzahn-Hellersdorf district, characterised by prefabricated buildings from the 1980s and 1990s, green spaces and the U5 underground line. Many buildings have lifts, but large furniture often has to be dismantled. Anyone moving from Hellersdorf to a house in Kaulsdorf, Mahlsdorf or the surrounding area usually needs a larger vehicle – we take this into account during the on-site survey.

Moving in Berlin Grunewald – exclusive living in the green

Grunewald is one of the most exclusive parts of Berlin, known for its villas, its forest and the Grunewaldsee lake. The area is particularly popular with wealthy Berliners and celebrities. Moves in Grunewald require particular sensitivity and discretion. Lion Umzüge is your experienced and discreet partner for moves in Grunewald – we ensure a professional and stress-free process.

Moving in Berlin Lichterfelde – green and family-oriented in the south-west

Lichterfelde belongs to the Steglitz-Zehlendorf district and is one of the largest neighbourhoods in Berlin. Villas, old buildings and quiet residential streets shape the picture, along with plenty of greenery and a good S-Bahn connection to the city centre. Families in particular appreciate the relaxed atmosphere. For moves in Lichterfelde we pay attention to the often narrow access roads in the villa quarters and, if necessary, arrange a no-parking zone so that your move runs smoothly and on time.

Moving in Berlin Wedding – lively and up-and-coming

Wedding belongs to the Mitte district and is characterised by old buildings in the Sprengelkiez and the Brüsseler Kiez, residential complexes around Leopoldplatz and plenty of greenery in the Volkspark Rehberge and the Schillerpark. There is heavy traffic on Müllerstraße and Seestraße during the day, and parking spaces are scarce in the neighbourhood streets. For moves in Wedding we therefore usually apply for a no-parking zone and plan enough carriers for old buildings without a lift.

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

In which Berlin districts does Lion Umzüge operate?

In all districts – from Mitte, Charlottenburg and Kreuzberg to Spandau, Neukölln and Marzahn. On this page you will find the pages for the individual districts.

Does a move cost more in some districts?

The district itself is not decisive. What matters is the size of the flat, the floor, the lift, the walking distances and the distance travelled. You can find an overview under moving company Berlin costs.

Do I need a no-parking zone for the move?

In many Berlin streets, yes. It is applied for at the Straßen- und Grünflächenamt (roads and green spaces office) of the respective district – more under no-parking zone Berlin.

Do you also move people from one district to another?

Yes, moves between all Berlin districts are part of our everyday work – as are moves to the surrounding area.

How early should I book my move within Berlin?

Four to eight weeks of notice is ideal, especially for the end of the month. Short-notice appointments are often possible too, depending on availability.

For every move within Berlin, including from district to district, we are liable under the German Commercial Code (HGB), generally at 620 euros per cubic metre of loading space. For art, antiques or a piano we recommend additional transport insurance.
