Tips for choosing affordable moves with Reformia
In general, the price of a van move is around 40 €/hour with one worker. If more than one is needed, the price can increase by at least 17 €/hour. However, a truck move starts at around 50 €/h with one worker. In the case of a truck with a lift gate and two workers, the service cost will not be less than 100 €/hour.

1. Get multiple quotes
Moving prices can vary significantly from one company to another. Therefore, the basic advice is to get several quotes and compare them. It's important to clearly specify what needs to be transported, the point of origin and destination. It's also important to check whether the company applies any surcharges, for example, for moves on holidays or during vacation periods.
2. Look for references
It's important to ask for references or look for reviews of the professionals you choose to do the work. This way there will be no doubt that they have the necessary licenses and permits to provide the service with guarantees. Even if it's an affordable move, it's worth not skipping this step. Many times a good job done previously is the best guarantee of security.
3. Vehicles and materials
Having the appropriate materials and tools to carry out an object and furniture move is also essential: a vehicle in good condition, packing materials, ramps... A professional moving company with economical prices should also have these.
In general, the price of a van move is around 40 €/hour with one worker. If more than one is needed, the price can increase by at least 17 €/hour.

Steps to book a van or truck rental
In general, the price of a van move is around 40 €/hour with one worker. If more than one is needed, the price can increase by at least 17 €/hour. However, a truck move starts at around 50 €/h with one worker. In the case of a truck with a lift gate and two workers, the service cost will not be less than 100 €/hour. To this must be added what the company charges for mileage. The move price will depend on the vehicle's capacity, the objects to be transported, and the distance.
1. Assess the volume and weight of your move
Carefully assess the amount of furniture and items you need to transport to determine whether you need a van or truck. A van rental starts at 120 €, while a truck begins at 180 €. Measuring the available space in your home will help you choose the most cost-effective and efficient vehicle.
2. Determine the distance to be covered
Calculate the exact kilometers between your current home and the new location, as the national average cost is 1.5 € per km. This information is crucial for obtaining an accurate quote, especially for long-distance moves. Use online mapping tools for more precise measurements.
3. Choose between a van or truck based on your needs
Select the appropriate vehicle based on your moving volume and available budget. A van costs 120 € and is ideal for small moves, while a truck at 180 € is suitable for larger loads. This choice will directly impact your total cost between 80 € and 1,500 €.
4. Calculate the number of workers required
Determine how many workers you'll need based on the complexity and weight of your move. Basic moves from 80 € can be done with fewer workers, while premium ones up to 1,500 € require more staff. Ask companies for details on how they charge for additional workers.
What can change your final price
Even similar projects can end with different budgets. These are the factors that most often push costs up or down.
Vehicle type and capacity
Vehicle size directly affects the hourly rate. A 3-ton van costs less than a 7.5-ton truck or a truck with a hydraulic lift, which can exceed 100 €/hour.
Number of workers required
Each additional worker increases the cost by approximately 17 €/hour. A simple move may require one worker, but complex relocations may need two or three professionals.
Distance and travel
Companies charge an additional cost per kilometer traveled, ranging from 0.50 € to 1.50 € per km depending on total distance. The empty vehicle travel to the pickup location is also charged.
Access difficulty and cargo characteristics
Difficult access, stairs, upper floors without elevators, or fragile or bulky items can significantly increase work time and, therefore, the final service price.
Mini moves
In general, the price of a van move is around 40 €/hour with one worker. If more than one is needed, the price can increase by at least 17 €/hour. However, a truck move starts at around 50 €/h with one worker. In the case of a truck with a lift gate and two workers, the service cost will not be less than 100 €/hour. To this must be added what the company charges for mileage. The move price will depend on the vehicle's capacity, the objects to be transported, and the distance.
These are moves that include small objects, plus a limited number of them. Additionally, this term can also apply to transfers between two nearby locations.
Tips for carrying out moves and small relocations
In general, the price of a van move is around 40 €/hour with one worker. If more than one is needed, the price can increase by at least 17 €/hour. However, a truck move starts at around 50 €/h with one worker. In the case of a truck with a lift gate and two workers, the service cost will not be less than 100 €/hour. To this must be added what the company charges for mileage. The move price will depend on the vehicle's capacity, the objects to be transported, and the distance.
Local
These are transfers that take place within the same city. As a general rule, and especially if it's a move rather than a complete relocation, they usually take just a few hours or a day at most.
Take your time to plan things, even if the move isn't especially complicated. Leaving everything for the last day usually causes headaches. On the other hand, if you prepare yourself to carry out the move in an orderly fashion, everything will be easier when the time comes.
Pay attention to the most delicate objects. Don't skimp on effort when packing them. Many times a small move includes office materials or objects that require special care. Both when protecting them and when placing them in the vehicle used for the move, special attention must be paid.
If you've hired the services of a professional, always ask them how long it will take to complete the work. Someone with experience will know how to calculate the route and get an idea of the time needed to do the job.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a van removal cost in 2025?
A van removal typically costs around 40 €/hour with one worker, though if you need two workers the cost increases from 57 €/hour.

If you opt for a truck with a hydraulic lift and two workers, the cost won't be less than 100 €/hour, making it more suitable for larger moves. The price difference is justified by the greater load capacity and resources needed to transport heavy or oversized items.
What does the price of a removal service in Spain include?
The removal price includes the vehicle, specialized workers, and transportation from the origin to the destination. However, it typically doesn't include packing materials, additional insurance, or parking fees and special permits. It's advisable to check with the company what additional services may apply, such as stairlifts, elevator use, or access to upper floors.
How do I choose a reliable and affordable removal company?
To choose a good removal company, compare quotes from at least three providers, verify they have the proper legal permits, and check reviews from previous customers. It's important to request a detailed quote that specifies the hourly rate, mileage charges, and any additional fees before booking. It's also worth selecting insured companies that offer coverage for potential damage during transport.
Do I need to purchase additional insurance for a removal service?
Many removal companies include basic insurance in their service, but it typically only covers partial damage with limited coverage limits.
