Date
medium
End of the month, Saturdays and summer have the highest demand.
03Regional differences
The indicative prices from the same platform are about 10% lower in Thessaloniki than in Athens (e.g. a 2-room flat 380–650 € versus 420–700 €). Moves to or from islands are priced separately, with the truck’s ferry ticket. For other cities we did not find enough published data and we do not give prices.
04Tips before you pay
- Give a list of items, the floor, whether there is a lift and the distance to the truck. That way the quote is accurate.
- Ask for 2–3 written quotes that say what they include (movers, hours, packing, lift).
- Pack the small items yourself: packing by the crew costs money.
- Avoid the last days of the month and Saturdays, if you can.
- Ask whether there is cargo insurance and what it covers.
