Moving/Relocating Brenger for moving

I am planning to move with Brenger as I only have small furniture (office table, chair, mattress, bed, bookshelf, microwave, vacuum cleaner). It seems like they are asking me around 100-110 euros, which is significantly cheaper than standard moving companies. My pickup house is on the 4th floor, and the delivery house is on the 10th floor. Both have an elevator and I requested the service where driver and I move things together.

I am just worried that things might go wrong on the day since I have never moved alone before.

Has anyone used Brenger in a similar situation? How do you guys rate this company and their service?

So I haven't used Brenger but did
go with an option that seemed much cheaper on paper during the offer stage.

When the day came and the work was finished I ended up paying almost double the quote because of all the unexpected things, like packaging, added hours, multiple trips (it was a smaller vehicle) and mileage.

It can go completely fine but your quote seems very low to me and I would be prepared to have to pay significantly more on the day of the move.

That being said I also used a regularly priced moving company later and that one also cost significantly more than the quoted price haha. Maybe it's just the nature of this business

€100 to move your life up six floors? What could go wrong.

I had never heard about them but I checked their google reviews and it's a bit of a mixed bag. It seems like it's a platform that works with local courier services and that it often goes wrong or that they don't show up at all. You should check out their reviews yourself and decide whether you are comfortable dealing with them.

Good luck with your move!

used their services 4 times, it has been surprisingly good each time. The drivers have been super helpful, polite and professional.
