In short

Vijfhuizen in short

The old ribbon by the dyke and the newer Stellinghof, side by side.

Vijfhuizen falls under the municipality of Haarlemmermeer and sits against Haarlem, at the edge of the polder. The village consists of an old ribbon along Vijfhuizerdijk and Spieringweg, and of Stellinghof, the new build added beside it in the 1990s and 2000s.

For a move those are two different jobs. On the ribbon the houses are detached with their own drive, so the van reaches the door: the most favourable situation in this municipality, and it saves hours of carrying. In Stellinghof the homes are generous but the car more often stands in a parking area within walking distance, and then that distance counts.

What makes Vijfhuizen particular inside this service area is how close Haarlem is: a move from here crosses the municipal boundary more often than one from Nieuw-Vennep. If the new home stays inside Haarlemmermeer the journey is in the price; going to Haarlem or beyond, the per-kilometre line joins as a separate item.

What matters here

What matters in Vijfhuizen

  • The ribbon along Vijfhuizerdijk and Spieringweg with detached houses and private drives
  • Stellinghof: generous new build, parking more often nearby than at the door
  • Right against Haarlem, so more moves across the municipal boundary
  • Open polder, and with it wind that keeps a ladder lift down on some days

Where the van can stand

Where the van can stand in Vijfhuizen

Along Vijfhuizerdijk and Spieringweg the same applies as in Zwanenburg: narrow road, no verge, and a slot outside rush hour. Stellinghof is newer and more generous, with parking within walking distance and usually a private drive.

Then the survey is the fastest next step. It takes half an hour and produces the cubic-metre list any quote can be checked against.

Roughly what a move in Vijfhuizen costs

On a wide screen the note per row sits in the third column. In short: the low end is half a day with two movers, the high end a full day with dismantling and a second run.

What is not included

Ladder lift, packing, dismantling and reassembly, boxes and storage. They stand with their rate in the item list above, and they are why two quotes with the same total promise different things.

What the survey changes

Half an hour, free of charge, and it produces the cubic-metre list. With that figure you can check any quote, ours included, and the list is and remains your property, whoever ends up doing the move.

Questions

Questions from Vijfhuizen

Question not here? Call or send a message.

Is moving to Haarlem more expensive?

Barely. The drive is short; what is added is the per-kilometre line of 0.50 to 1 euro outside the municipality. What does count for more in Haarlem is the parking spot: a street in the old centre there is a different story from a drive here.

What if it is windy?

Above force six a ladder lift stays down, and in open polder that happens more often than in a city. Then we move by the stairs and the day runs long. At a fixed price that is our risk; on an hourly rate it is yours.

How soon is the survey?

Within three working days. For a detached house with a full shed or garage we advise a survey in person rather than by video call: that is exactly the volume hardest to judge on a screen.

The fuller this form, the sharper the first band. Leave blank what you do not know: that beats a guess that has to be corrected later.

Send both addresses and the floor. Those three facts usually show whether a ladder lift is needed, and that is the largest separate item.
