What makes the move take longer
Stairs without a lift are the biggest time thief: each floor adds about 5% to the working time. A long carry from the entrance to the truck, a small lift the sofa will not fit in and things that are not packed when the movers arrive also drag it out.
The driving distance matters less within the city – the first 20 kilometres are included. Longer distances add roughly one hour per 50 km.
Estimated time with 2 movers and a truck
Lift at both addresses and 10 km between them. The time covers carrying, loading, driving and unloading.
| Move | Estimated time | After RUT | Before RUT |
|---|---|---|---|
| 30 m² studio | 3–3,5 h | 1 500–1 750 kr | 2 950–3 450 kr |
| 55 m² one-bedroom flat | 3,5–4,5 h | 1 750–2 250 kr | 3 450–4 450 kr |
| 75 m² two-bedroom flat | 5–6 h | 2 500–2 950 kr | 4 950–5 950 kr |
| 100 m² three-bedroom flat | 6,5–8 h | 3 200–3 950 kr | 6 450–7 900 kr |
| 150 m² house | 9–12 h | 4 450–5 950 kr | 8 900–11 900 kr |
Packing often takes longer than the move
Packing a one-bedroom flat takes most people several evenings. Start with what you use least two or three weeks before, and leave the kitchen and bathroom until last. If you would rather not pack, we can do it – packing help adds about 0.5 hours per 10 m² of home.
Plan the day
If the move starts in the morning, a studio or one-bedroom flat is usually done before lunch or early afternoon. A house often takes the whole day. Book the move-out cleaning for after the move, and keep a box with the essentials – chargers, keys, toilet paper and something to eat – with you in the car.
