Moving in Trzebnica
Trzebnica, known for its basilica and the Sanctuary of St Hedwig, lies about 25 kilometres north of Wrocław, on the edge of the Trzebnica Hills. Since the S5 expressway opened, the drive from Wrocław's northern districts has been cut to just under half an hour. Moving in Trzebnica is a job where distance is not the problem – the lie of the land needs far more attention.
The hills change the way we work
Trzebnica is not flat like Wrocław. Some streets in the town and surrounding villages climb steeply uphill, and houses built on slopes have driveways where it is hard to stop a loaded vehicle. In winter, there is ice to contend with too. So when preparing the quote, we ask about the gradient of the driveway and whether the vehicle can park on level ground. If not, we park lower down and take things uphill on trolleys with large wheels. For steep outdoor steps we bring extra people, because a sofa carried at an angle feels noticeably heavier.
Where we move in Trzebnica municipality
Town centre
Tenement buildings around the market square and the streets leading to the basilica, with blocks of flats nearby. The area around the sanctuary can get crowded on pilgrimage days and holidays, so we choose dates on such days carefully.
Villages and new estates
Masłów, Boleścin and other places in the municipality where lots of detached houses are being built. Access can be narrow, but there is usually room to park the vehicle on the property.
From Wrocław to Trzebnica – a typical moving day
Most often we move families from Psie Pole, Karłowice or Różanka to houses in Trzebnica municipality. In the morning we pack and load in Wrocław, before midday we set off along the S5, and after unloading we reassemble the furniture and arrange it in the rooms as you direct. If some of the furniture is only to go into the new house once the finishing work is done, we take it to our warehouse and deliver it later.
The cost of a move in Trzebnica – what it depends on
| Factor | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Driveway gradient | requires extra people and carrying equipment |
| Time of year | in winter, ice on the hills has to be taken into account |
| Volume of belongings | affects the number of trips and the size of the vehicle |
| Packing and disassembly | details under additional services |
| Access in the centre | pilgrim traffic and narrow streets by the basilica |
You can prepare a list of furniture in the volume calculator and send it to us together with photos of your driveway – that is enough for us to give you a specific price.
Vineyards, orchards and houses on large plots
For more than a decade, vines have once again been grown on the gentle slopes around Trzebnica, and many houses stand on extensive plots with orchards and outbuildings. On moves like these, as well as furniture, we transport gardening equipment, shelving from cellars and tools. We pack them separately from household items, so sharp edges don't scratch wardrobe fronts, and place heavy items at floor level in the load space. Before the quote, it is worth looking in the shed and the garage – that is where the volume nobody remembered is most often hiding.
From Trzebnica we also move people further north, along the S5 towards Rawicz, Leszno and Poznań.
Trzebnica – questions and answers
My house is on a steep plot. Will you manage to carry the furniture in?
Yes. We plan this when preparing the quote: we choose the number of people, the trolleys and where to park the vehicle. A photo of the driveway helps a lot.
Do you carry out moves around Trzebnica in winter?
Yes, we work all year round. In frost and snow, we ask you to clear the path to the house, and we bring mats and extra protection ourselves.
How long is the drive from Wrocław?
Via the S5, usually just under half an hour from the northern districts of the city. From the south of Wrocław, you need to add the time it takes to cross the city.
Will you move just a few pieces of furniture from the centre of Trzebnica?
Yes, we also take on smaller jobs, for example moving a few pieces of furniture from a flat to a house in a neighbouring village.
Do you issue invoices?
Yes – every job is carried out under a contract, with a VAT invoice and liability insurance of up to PLN 500,000.
