Gießen is the farthest point on our map — and precisely there we calculate most exactly: around 65 kilometres up the A5, travel as an open line in the quote, no hidden surcharge. University town means, for us: we know what a halls-of-residence move looks like, and what an institute move looks like.
Here is how it runs: you fill in the fixed-price calculator or write to info@umzugschef.de. We come for a survey on request — for Gießen preferably by video call; on moving day we are there in person anyway. After that, a quote with the final amount is on the table. Whatever is not in the quote costs nothing.
The districts we work in
Innenstadt, Kleinlinden, Wieseck, Lützellinden, Allendorf, Rödgen — and the surrounding district along with them. What matters at this distance: the more exact the survey, the firmer the price. So we do it thoroughly — if need be by video call, through every floor.
What a move costs in Gießen
Two movers and a van cost €89 per hour. Travel is included up to 20 km, after that every kilometre counts at €1.20 — for Gießen that comes to around €55, shown openly in the quote. Three rooms, second-floor walk-up on both sides: guide price €600–800 including travel. All conditions on the Prices page.
University moves without compromises
Around the semester change we bundle our Gießen runs: part-loads between Frankfurt, Gießen and Fulda push the price for single rooms down considerably — details under student move. If you own more than a room, the full service is the flat move.
Liability and payment
Every piece we transport is covered by law: €620 per cubic metre of load under § 451e HGB. Payment is due once the move is done — by bank transfer or in cash. We never ask for a deposit.
Nearby towns
Frankfurt down the A5, Fulda to the east. Wetzlar lies twelve kilometres west, Marburg half an hour north — both at the same written fixed price.
Is it even worth it at this distance?
Run the numbers: the fixed-price calculator shows route and price openly. At 65 kilometres the travel is around €55 — the rest is the same rate as in Frankfurt.
Do you really come out to Gießen for the survey?
For the survey, by video; for the move, in person. That keeps the overhead small and the price firm anyway.
