In two minutes

How much do you actually have to move?

Photograph your rooms, answer one short form, and you get an estimate of volume, crew size and price band — before you have to leave any contact details.

  1. Upload photos or a video of your rooms
  2. One form: floor area, floors, lift, carrying distance, date
  3. Volume, crew size and a price band, always as a range

The estimate is non-binding and is not an offer. The binding fixed price follows a short survey.

What we do

Six services, bookable separately or together. Each has its own page with the process, the prices and the questions people actually ask.

Private move in Munich

A private move in Munich typically costs 700 – 1.400 for a two-room flat and 1.100 – 2.000 for three rooms, gross. We measure the volume during the survey, size the crew and the vehicle accordingly, and name a fixed price. On the day you get a settled crew of two to four people — the same people you met beforehand, not rotating subcontractors.

Private moves in detail

Office and company moves

Offices, medical practices, law firms and warehouses are moved outside your business hours, usually at the weekend. Workstations are dismantled with numbered parts and rebuilt in the same configuration at the new address, so Monday works. Archives travel sealed and traceable.

Packing and moving boxes

You either get professional packing material delivered, or our team packs the whole household. Materials alone run 80 – 250, full packing 300 – 900. We also rent out boxes and wardrobe cartons individually — if you pack yourself, read the liability section first.

Furniture and kitchen assembly

Wardrobes, beds, office furniture and kitchens are dismantled properly, transported and rebuilt at the new address — including connecting the washing machine and dishwasher. Dismantling and assembly costs 200 – 600, taking a kitchen apart and refitting it 400 – 1.200.

Storage between moving out and moving in

When days or weeks sit between moving out and moving in, we store your goods dry and secured and deliver on the date you want. That is the normal case when the new flat is still being renovated or the handover slipped.

Long-distance moves from Munich

We handle long-distance moves out of Munich anywhere in Germany, and moves within the EU. Billing is by volume plus a per-kilometre rate of 0,55. We do not offer overseas moves by container or air freight — that needs a forwarder with its own sea-freight desk.

Liability and insurance

Who is liable if something breaks during the move?

The removal contractor is — capped at 620 euro per cubic metre of loading space needed for the contract (§ 451e HGB). That covers ordinary household contents; with high-value furnishings it does not always. For higher values we arrange additional transport insurance at a value you declare yourself.

Read the full liability terms
  • 620 € per cubic metre of loading space, set by law in § 451e HGB
  • Externally visible damage must be reported at handover under § 438 HGB, concealed damage within 14 days
  • For boxes you packed yourself, liability for transport damage is limited — we could not check the contents or the packing
  • Optional transport insurance for the whole move or single valuables, premium following the value you declare
  • Public and professional liability insurance: LVN

What does a move in Munich cost?

A move in Munich typically costs between 450 – 850 for one room and 2.400 – 4.500 for a house of 140 to 200 square metres. The price comes from the volume in cubic metres, the crew and time needed, the distance, the floor and the carrying distance. Other companies give you these numbers on the phone. We put them here.

Rule of thumb for volume: roughly 0.3 to 0.5 m³ of goods per square metre of living space. A 70 m² flat comes to about 21 to 35 m³. Sparsely furnished tends to the lower figure; a full cellar and attic to the upper one.

All figures are market orientation values for Munich and the surrounding area — not offers. Your binding fixed price follows a short survey on site or by photo and video; the fixed-price survey service costs 290. Additional scope is charged only after prior agreement, never sprung on you on moving day.

On Sundays and public holidays: § 9 ArbZG prohibits employing staff on Sundays and public holidays outside the licensed exceptions. Sunday and holiday jobs are therefore only possible by arrangement and only where the law allows — at double rate.

Business customers switch to net prices at the top of the page. The choice applies to every price on this site.

How your move runs

Five steps, always the same. What happens in each one is set out here — so you know where you stand before you sign anything.

  1. Enquiry and survey

    You request a callback or upload photos to the volume calculator. We look at the flat — on site or by video — and measure the volume. Cellar, attic, garage and balcony are explicitly included, because that is exactly where the cubic metres hide that otherwise surprise everyone on moving day.

  2. Fixed-price quote

    You get a written quote with scope, crew, date and a fixed price. That price holds. Extra work and additional scope are charged only after prior agreement — there is no back-charge that you meet for the first time on moving day.

  3. Preparation

    We apply for the no-parking zones at both addresses — allow roughly three weeks — deliver packing material if you want it, and agree the sequence with the building management or the neighbours. Anyone who needs a zone and applies late carries their furniture further on the day.

  4. Moving day

    The crew documents the condition of valuable and fragile items, dismantles, loads securely, transports and rebuilds at the new address. You have one contact person on site, not a number in a call centre.

  5. Handover and damage settlement

    We check the condition together with you at the new address. Externally visible damage is recorded right at handover, as § 438 HGB requires; concealed damage you report within 14 days with a photo. After that it is repaired, or replaced within the statutory liability.

Typical situations we move

Most moves in Munich fall into one of these six situations. Each has its own trap.

Moving within Munich

The most common case: a new flat inside the city, the old one handed over at the end of the month. The bottleneck is almost never the distance but the date — from late June to late September the month-ends are booked out weeks ahead.

Moving to the surrounding area

From Munich to Dachau, Starnberg, Erding or Fürstenfeldbruck — and back. Up to about 50 kilometres the distance barely moves the price; volume and carrying distance at both addresses still decide it.

Moving with interim storage

When weeks sit between moving out and moving in, everything is loaded twice. We plan for that from the start, so furniture only has to be dismantled once and stays reachable in storage if something is needed after all.

Company move at the weekend

Offices, practices and law firms move outside business hours. Workstations are dismantled with numbered parts and rebuilt identically. Saturdays carry a 50 % surcharge — which pays for itself if it saves a lost working day.

Moving a senior relative

A move to a smaller flat or into assisted living, usually combined with clearing the old household. We work at a calm pace, agree every step with the family, and push nobody into a decision about a piece of furniture.

Moving after a separation or a death in the family

When a household has to be divided, we deliver to several destination addresses. Whatever is going nowhere is cleared through the sister brand — in one job, without a second journey.

What we do not transport

We do not move pianos, grand pianos, safes, billiard tables or industrial machinery — and nothing that needs a crane or removal through a window or balcony. The benchmark is what two people can move safely by hand or with straps. We would rather say this now than on moving day.

  • Pianos and grand pianos
  • Safes
  • Billiard tables
  • Industrial machinery
  • Loads needing a crane, or removal through a window or balcony
  • Live animals
  • Hot tubs and saunas up to 120 kg
  • Large potted plants up to 100 kg
  • A furniture hoist against the facade is booked from an external supplier — we do not provide one ourselves

We do not transport a piano — but we can dispose of one. Our sister brand Entrümpelung München dismantles the instrument on site and disposes of it as material. If you want the piano gone, that is the right address; if you want it moved, you need a piano specialist with the right equipment.

Photographs of completed moves will go here. We only show our own jobs, never stock images — which is why this section is still empty.

Placeholder: images belong in /public/projekte/<category>/. The folder name becomes the heading.

Where we work

We move across the whole Munich city area and within roughly 50 kilometres — the Landkreis München and the neighbouring districts of Dachau, Freising, Erding, Ebersberg, Starnberg and Fürstenfeldbruck. Long-distance moves out of Munich go anywhere in Germany, and within the EU.

Not on the list: overseas moves by container or air freight. That needs a forwarder with its own sea-freight and customs desk, and we would rather send you straight there than take a job we would have to hand on.

One job instead of three

Moving, clearance and renovation together

SuperUmzug is one of three trading names of the same sole proprietorship — alongside Entrümpelung München for clearance and household liquidation, and BayReno for renovation. Book two or three of them together and you get one contact, one schedule and one contract.

A combined job typically costs 20 to 35 % less than three separate ones, because travel, setup and coordination happen once instead of three times.

Common questions about moving in Munich

The questions we are asked most on the phone — with the figures and the statutes that go with them.

What does a move in Munich cost?

Typically 700 – 1.400 gross for a two-room flat within Munich and 1.400 – 2.800 gross for four rooms. The price depends on volume, distance, floor, carrying distance and additional services. After a short survey you get a binding fixed price. All prices include 19 % VAT.

How expensive is a moving company in Munich?

For an ordinary residential move, a Munich moving company runs between 450 – 850 and 2.400 – 4.500 gross depending on size. Serious companies only name a binding price after a survey — anyone promising a fixed price without one is either padding it or will come back for more later.

What moving costs should I budget for in Munich?

Budget the base price for your flat size plus the extras you actually need. The common ones: packing material 80 – 250, furniture dismantling and assembly 200 – 600, and a no-parking zone per address at 300. For a three-room flat most moves land between 1,400 and 2,600 € gross.

Three-room flat in Munich — what price is realistic?

For 75 to 95 m² we reckon on 30 to 40 m³ of goods, a crew of three to four, and typically 1.100 – 2.000 gross. A fourth floor without a lift, a long carrying distance, or a kitchen that has to come apart and go back together push it upwards.

How do I work out my moving volume?

The rule of thumb is 0.3 to 0.5 m³ of goods per square metre of living space. So 70 m² gives roughly 21 to 35 m³. The lower figure suits sparsely furnished flats, the upper one full cellars, attics and garages. Our volume calculator is more precise: upload photos, fill in the form, get an estimate as a range.

How far ahead should I book a move in Munich?

Two to three weeks for a private move, four to six for a company move. For month-end dates between June and September plan six weeks — those are the weeks when everyone in Munich moves at once. If you need a no-parking zone, its three-week lead time sets the pace anyway.

What happens if something is damaged during the move?

You report the damage with a photo and a short description. Statutory removal-contractor liability applies: 620 € per cubic metre of loading space under § 451e HGB, or up to the agreed value with additional transport insurance. The deadline matters: externally visible damage must be reported at handover under § 438 HGB, concealed damage within 14 days.

Are my belongings insured during transport?

Statutory liability under § 451e HGB applies first: 620 € per cubic metre of loading space. That covers ordinary household contents but is not always enough for high-value furnishings. For that case we arrange additional transport insurance for the whole move or for individual valuables — you set the insured value, and the premium follows it.

What if I packed the boxes myself?

For self-packed boxes, liability for transport damage is limited, because we could not check the contents or the packing quality. That is not small print, it is the ordinary legal position for moving contracts. If particular items matter to you, have us pack exactly those — that is usually enough.

Do you apply for the no-parking zone?

Yes, for both addresses. The application takes about three weeks — the deadline people underestimate most often. The fee is 300 per address. Without a zone the vehicle parks wherever it can, the carrying distance grows, and that extra carrying time feeds straight into the final price.

Do you also move outside Munich?

Yes. We work across roughly a 50-kilometre radius around Munich, including Dachau, Freising, Erding, Starnberg, Fürstenfeldbruck and Germering. Long-distance moves out of Munich go anywhere in Germany, and moves within the EU as well. We do not offer overseas moves by container or air freight.

Are there things you will not transport?

Yes. Pianos, grand pianos, safes, billiard tables, industrial machinery, and anything requiring a crane or removal through a window or balcony. The benchmark is what two people can move safely by hand or with straps. Hot tubs and saunas up to 120 kg, large potted plants up to 100 kg. We do not transport live animals either.

Can you move or dispose of a piano?

Move it, no — dispose of it, yes. A piano move needs specialist equipment and a company set up for it; we would be risking both the instrument and our crew. If the piano is to go, our sister brand Entrümpelung München handles it: the instrument is dismantled on site and disposed of as material. The same logic applies to safes and billiard tables.

Do you work on Saturdays, Sundays or public holidays?

Saturdays yes, with a 50 % surcharge. Sunday and public-holiday work is only possible by arrangement and only where the law allows — § 9 ArbZG prohibits employing staff on those days outside the licensed exceptions. Where it is permitted, double rate applies; the same rate applies to 24-hour express moves.

How fast is an express move?

Within 24 hours, subject to availability. That is realistic for smaller flats and when no no-parking zone is needed — a zone takes three weeks and cannot be accelerated. An express move is billed at double rate.

Can I see what the move costs before giving my number?

Yes. The volume calculator shows you volume, crew size and a price band before it asks for any contact details. The estimate is non-binding and is not an offer — the binding fixed price comes after a short survey on site or by video.

I do not speak German. Can you handle the move in English?

Yes, and in five more languages: Slovak, Czech, Polish, Ukrainian and Croatian, alongside German and English. The website exists in German and English; the other five we speak on the phone and at the appointment. Contracts and the quote are issued in German with an English explanation of every line.

Can I book moving, clearance and renovation together?

Yes. All three are trading names of the same sole proprietorship, so there is one contact and one schedule. A combined job typically costs 20 to 35 % less than three separate ones, because travel, setup and coordination happen once.
