Fulda is compact — but a move in the Altstadt or up on Horas still has its catches: cobblestones, narrow lanes, stairwells from the fifties. We are based here, we know the corners, and we put the price in writing before a single box is packed.
The process: send a request through the fixed-price calculator or to info@umzugschef.de. Then the survey on request in and around Fulda — by video call if you prefer, and in English if that suits you better. Afterwards you hold a written quote with the final amount. The amount in the quote is the amount on the invoice.

Alsfeld sits at 59 kilometres, just outside this ring; our Frankfurt team drives there.
What a move costs in Fulda
Two movers and a van: €69 per hour, travel up to 20 km included, each floor without a lift adds around 25 minutes. Three rooms within town, second floor: guide price €380 to €510. The complete price logic sits on the Prices page, worked examples and saving tips under Moving costs.
Halteverbot: the no-parking zone in Fulda
In the Altstadt and around Domplatz, the van only gets a sensible spot at the entrance with a permit. We handle the application for the temporary no-parking zone (Halteverbot) and the signs — at both addresses. The municipal fee lands in the quote without a markup.
Moves between Fulda and Frankfurt
We drive the Fulda–Frankfurt route constantly. Anyone moving from East Hesse into the Rhine-Main area — or the other way — gets the same fixed price as within town. Our second crew sits in Frankfurt am Main; with part-loads on this axis, nobody pays twice for the road.
Liability and payment
The statutory liability of a removals carrier applies: €620 per cubic metre under § 451e HGB, with additional insurance for valuables on request. Payment follows completion, by bank transfer or in cash — no deposit.
Common questions about moving in Fulda
Do you drive student moves?
Yes. Small loads between Fulda, Frankfurt and the region’s university towns are routine — part-loads keep the price down.
What about fragile pieces?
Tell us at the survey. Antiques and heirlooms get blankets, wrap and a secured spot in the load; for very valuable pieces we arrange additional insurance.
How fast can I get a slot?
Plannable from about seven days ahead. Between firm bookings we deliberately leave gaps for short-notice moves — often it works within a few days.
