Moving in Szczecin

Szczecin is closer to Berlin than to Warsaw, and it is linked to Wrocław by one long expressway along Poland's western border. For us, Szczecin–Wrocław moves are a route where the vehicle does not pass through a single large city along the way. We move people in both directions, from Szczecin to other parts of Poland, and also to Germany, where we run regular trips and have our own warehouse in Frankfurt am Main.

The S3: Legnica, Zieloną Góra, Gorzów, Szczecin

We leave Wrocław on the A4 motorway towards Legnica, then take the S3 expressway via Lubin, Nową Sól, Zieloną Góra, Międzyrzecz and Gorzów Wielkopolski. The whole route is about 370 km and runs mostly through forests and small towns, without the congestion typical of large conurbations. Szczecin, however, greets you with the approach via Klucz and the bridge over the Oder, where traffic slows at rush hour.

For a flat with a lift and belongings already packed, the move is completed in one long day. When the whole flat needs packing or everything has to be carried up the high stairs of a tenement, we spread the work over two days – so that carrying in and assembling furniture isn't rushed in the evening.

Szczecin tenements by the star-shaped squares

Central Szczecin was designed on the model of Paris: wide avenues converge on round squares, and between them stand four-storey tenement buildings with very high ceilings. The fourth floor of such a building is in practice as high as the sixth floor of a block of flats. The stairwells are grand, but lifts have been added only in some buildings. On top of that, there is the paid parking zone in the centre and roundabouts where stopping is not allowed. So we plan to park the vehicle in a side street or in a gateway.

Other districts – other conditions

Szczecin, Wrocław and Germany

Many Szczecin residents work on the German side of the border or move there permanently. If you are planning a move to Germany – to Berlin, Hamburg or further west – we will handle it as an international move, with documentation and insurance. When the dates don't match, your belongings can wait in our warehouse in Wrocław or in Frankfurt am Main. You will find the details on our international moving and Frankfurt warehouse pages.
