How much does a move in Wrocław cost in 2026? What affects the price

1. Volume of your belongings

The amount of furniture, boxes and appliances in cubic metres determines the size of the vehicle and the number of trips. It's the starting point for every quote. You can work out the volume of your home in a few minutes with our volume calculator.

2. Crew working time

The number of people multiplied by the hours – from the first box loaded to the last one unloaded. For moves within the city, this is usually the biggest part of the price.

3. Floors and lifts

Every floor without a lift means longer carrying, and a narrow staircase slows down getting wardrobes and sofas out. Floors at both ends count – in your old home and your new one.

4. Distance from the van to the door

A gateway, a courtyard, a pedestrian zone or nowhere to stop outside the building – every extra metre takes time. In the Old Town or Nadodrze, the van often can't pull up right by the entrance, and that needs to be factored into the plan.

5. Packing and furniture dismantling

Packing with boxes and wrapping film, as well as taking furniture apart and putting it back together, are optional services charged separately. You can book the lot or just part of it – for example, packing the kitchen and fragile items.

6. Date

The end of the month, Fridays, Saturdays and the summer holidays are the busiest dates. If you're flexible, moving mid-month and mid-week can be cheaper, and it's easier to get a free slot.

When comparing offers, check that they all cover the same things. Our quote includes:

• a vehicle matched to the volume, a driver and a crew,
• loading, strapping the load securely and protective blankets for furniture,
• the journey, unloading and placing items in the rooms you choose,
• a contract, a VAT invoice and cover for your belongings under a liability policy of up to 500,000 PLN.

Extras include packing along with boxes and film, furniture dismantling and assembly, moving heavy or unusual items (a piano, a safe), removing old appliances and storing belongings in a warehouse. You'll find the full list on our additional services page.

Quoting figures without knowing the floor and access would just be guesswork, so here's a rough idea of the workload for typical homes in Wrocław:

• Studio flat (approx. 10–15 m³ of belongings): usually two people and one van, a few hours' work.
• Two- or three-room flat (approx. 20–35 m³): three people and a larger van, most often half a day to a full day.
• House (40 m³ and up): four or more people, a bigger vehicle or two trips, often two days including packing.

This is only a starting point. A flat with fully stocked kitchen cupboards and a large bookcase takes longer than a bigger one that is sparsely furnished.

A rate thrown out during a call without asking about the floor or the number of wardrobes usually assumes ideal conditions: a ground floor, a lift and the van right outside the door. In practice, that kind of offer goes up on moving day, when you no longer have any room to negotiate.

Our quote takes longer, but that's the figure that goes into the contract. The price only changes if the conditions change – for example, a cellar is added or the lift turns out to be broken – and we always agree it with you before loading. You can read more about how we calculate prices in our Wrocław moving price list.

1. Get rid of things you don't need before the quote. Every piece of furniture you won't use in your new home costs time and space in the van. Sell it or book a removal.
2. Pack some things yourself. A popular arrangement: we pack the kitchen and fragile items, and you pack the rest in boxes we deliver in advance.
3. Choose a less busy date. Mid-month and mid-week usually means a wider choice of times.
4. Make sure there's space for the van. Arrange courtyard access with the building manager or book the lift – it cuts down on carrying.
5. Prepare accurate details. Addresses, floors, lift information, a list of larger furniture and a few photos let us price your move with no surprises.

Do you charge for a quote?

No. The quote and the survey visit are free, and you're under no obligation to accept the offer.

Do you charge by the hour or a flat rate?

It depends on the job. For simple moves within the city, we charge for working time; for larger moves, we more often agree a price for the whole scope. The billing method is always set out in the contract.

Does distance within Wrocław make a big difference?

Less than traffic and working time. Driving from Leśnica to Psie Pole at rush hour can take longer than the carrying itself.

Does a piano or a safe cost extra?

Yes – heavy and unusual items need extra people and equipment, so we price them separately. Mention them right away and you'll avoid any price adjustment.
