Moving with uts - FAQ
Frequently asked questions
If you are unsure who you should entrust with your complete or partial move, domestic or international move, then ask us. We are sure to have the answer. We will ensure that your move runs smoothly and stress-free. You can contact us at any time by phone or e-mail and clarify all your questions with us.
During the initial consultation, your UTS relocation manager will discuss with you what information is important for us to provide you with a meaningful quote tailored to your personal situation.
Your UTS removal manager will explain to you what transport insurance options are available. However, UTS is liable on the basis of the German Commercial Code (HGB) with 620 euros per cubic meter of removal volume. The compensation is based on the current value of your removal goods. If you want to upgrade, your customer advisor will offer you transport insurance.
UTS takes care of everything so that the conditions for a successful move are in place on the day of the move. We keep an eye on the deadlines for the official permits and know the professionals for setting up the no-stopping signs.
The duration depends on the volume, the distance, any customs formalities required at the border and the loading and unloading conditions. Your UTS relocation manager will be happy to tell you how long your move is likely to take.
The removal offer from UTS is free of charge and non-binding.
We offer you personal relocation support from your UTS relocation manager from the initial contact through to invoicing. The large UTS network with approx. 20 partners in Germany and over 1,800 partners worldwide means maximum flexibility and certified quality for you.

No problem, because every UTS partner has a warehouse for removal goods. All storage facilities are temperature-controlled and comply with current safety standards. The storage period is variable and you even have access to your removal goods during storage (by prior arrangement).
A preparation of 4 to 6 weeks before the start of the move helps to ensure that you receive your desired date and that the move can also be prepared very well by UTS. If your desired date is in the summer or at the end of the month, we recommend that you start planning at least 6 weeks in advance.
Your removal costs depend on various factors, such as the volume of the move, the transportation distance, the scope of the service and seasonal factors such as school vacations. We will clarify the details of your move with you.
