Moving Company Berlin Wilmersdorf

Moving company Berlin Wilmersdorf – grand period buildings and quiet squares

Wilmersdorf is quieter than its neighbour Charlottenburg, but no less demanding for a move. Around Ludwigkirchplatz, in the Rheingauviertel, by Volkspark Wilmersdorf and in Schmargendorf there are spacious period buildings with high ceilings, as well as residential complexes from the 1920s and 1950s. Many flats are large and well furnished – with pieces that need to be handled with care.

Large flats, heavy furniture

In Wilmersdorf we often come across massive wardrobes, display cabinets, libraries and grand pianos. We bring straps, blankets and special packing material and plan sufficient staff. Glass doors and mirrors are packed individually, books in small boxes so that they remain portable. For valuable pieces we discuss in advance whether additional insurance makes sense.

Parking and access

On Bundesallee, Hohenzollerndamm or Berliner Straße traffic is heavy, and parking spaces in the side streets are usually taken. With a no-parking zone the vehicle can stand directly in front of the building. This saves time and prevents furniture from having to be carried long distances along the pavement.

Schmargendorf and Halensee

In Schmargendorf and around Halensee, many people live on quiet streets with well-kept residential complexes and some villas. Access is usually easier here, but many buildings have fixed quiet hours, which we observe.

Costs and tips for saving

Large flats and lots of furniture mean more volume – that is the most important price factor. Floors and carrying distances are added to this. You can save by deciding before the move what really comes with you. Furniture that no longer fits can be sold, donated or handed over to us for disposal. Packing boxes yourself also saves costs.

Good to know: many period apartments in Wilmersdorf have floorboards and stucco ceilings. We cover the floors and carry large items in such a way that door frames and walls are not damaged.

Around Fehrbelliner Platz, Bundesallee and Volkspark Wilmersdorf

Wilmersdorf is a district with many faces. Fehrbelliner Platz with its large administrative buildings, Bundesallee as a wide traffic artery, Volkspark Wilmersdorf as a green belt running across the area. All around, people live in grand period buildings, post-war buildings and newer residential complexes. For moves, this variety is a challenge but also an opportunity, because we know the local conditions well.

Bundesallee and Hohenzollerndamm

Bundesallee and Hohenzollerndamm are busy roads. Anyone living there needs a no-parking zone for the move, otherwise the vehicle cannot stop. The application to the Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf district office takes a few days, and the signs must be put up in good time before moving day. On request we take care of all of this.

Volkspark and quiet side streets

Around Volkspark Wilmersdorf there are quiet residential streets with period buildings and houses from the fifties. The houses often have front gardens, and the entrances are a few metres from the street. The stairwells are usually wide and the flats large. Many families and older people who have lived in the neighbourhood for a long time live here.

Flats with history

In many Wilmersdorf flats there are valuable paintings, antiques or a grand piano. We treat such pieces with particular care. Paintings are packed individually, antiques are protected with blankets and film, and for pianos or grand pianos we use special equipment. If you own an instrument, you will find further information on our page about piano transport in Berlin.

Flat clearance after a long tenancy

When a flat is given up after decades, for example because the tenant is moving into a care home or has passed away, relatives face a big task. We help with sorting, take what is to go to the new home or to the relatives, and take care of clearing the rest. We treat personal belongings with respect and agree every step with you.

A tip for tenants in Wilmersdorf

Many period apartments in Wilmersdorf have wooden floorboards or parquet, which is inspected closely at the handover. Protect the floors while packing by carrying heavy boxes rather than pushing them across the floor. On moving day we lay protective material along the walkways so that no scratches occur. Small felt pads under the furniture feet help to protect the floor in the new flat.

Anyone moving from Wilmersdorf to another district usually takes the city motorway that crosses the district. This shortens many journeys considerably, except during rush hour.

Around Uhlandstraße and Prager Platz

In the north of Wilmersdorf, around Uhlandstraße, Pariser Straße and Prager Platz, many people live in spacious period apartments with stucco and parquet. The buildings have often been freshly renovated, and the property managers keep a close eye on the stairwell. Scratches on freshly painted walls or damage to the banister are noticed immediately. We therefore protect corners, edges and banisters with padding and carry items particularly carefully.

Many residents of these flats work in the city centre or from home. A move spread over two days is often more convenient for them: on the first day we pack, on the second we transport and set up. This way the workspace remains usable until the very end.
