Shurgard Amsterdam Centrum
The Transformatorweg branch lists daily access from 07:00 to 21:00. Office hours are more limited. Arrange assistance within office hours if you need help getting access.
Access and office hours ↗Emptying a storage unit: from an old sofa to a complete household
A storage unit often fills gradually: a sofa after moving, a wardrobe that no longer fits, a mattress and boxes untouched for months. Decide what to keep, sell yourself or have removed. Then list only the belongings that may go. Furniture collection from storage depends on quantities, dimensions and the carrying route, not just the floor area of the unit. A half-full 10 m² unit may involve less work than a small room stacked to the ceiling.
Clearing a basement or apartment storage room
A private storage room in an apartment building needs different preparation from a rented self-storage unit. Check the basement stairs, fire doors, access from the lift and distance to the street. Keep neighbours’ belongings and shared equipment out of your inventory. Mention whether an old wardrobe or sofa originally entered in separate pieces. Describe dampness, damage or unstable stacks before anyone carries them. Include small furniture and loose panels in the request so it is clear what will remain after collection.
What can be collected from storage?
Register an old or broken sofa, wardrobe, dining table, chairs, bed, mattress or listed appliance using the appropriate furniture category. Describe boxes and mixed belongings separately: a sealed box does not reveal its contents. Construction waste and chemical waste are excluded. Clearly separate anything that stays and specify whether the cabinets or shelving themselves need removing. Take tools, paperwork and personal belongings you want to keep out of drawers and packaging beforehand. The final inventory is assessed before confirmation.
How much does storage clearance in Amsterdam cost?
For individual furniture items, the calculation starts with a €75 base fee, plus the selected item prices and applicable surcharges. A €60 two-seater sofa and a €15 bar stool total €150 including VAT for ground-floor collection without lift use and with the standard arrival window. This example is not a price for clearing an entire unit. A larger clearance requires assessment of volume, inventory and access. Storage rent and charges from the storage provider are separate from our collection price.
Ending your storage rental: arrange collection before handover
Check with your own provider how to cancel, which end date applies and how the unit must be left. Allow time between the confirmed furniture collection and any inspection or key handover. An empty unit does not automatically end the rental agreement. After the agreed items are removed, inspect the space yourself: are there panels at the back, personal shelving or materials attached to a wall? Agree any cleaning, dismantling or repairs separately if needed; these are not automatically included in furniture collection.

ALLSAFE Centrum, West & Zuid
These branches publish tenant access from 06:00 to 23:00, with 24-hour access possible under their arrangements. Check what applies to your contract. For the Wibautstraat branch, also check the James Wattstraat entrance.
ALLSAFE Noord Robotic
The Netwerkweg page lists tenant hours of 09:00–17:00. Ask the branch when and how your stored belongings can be presented for collection. Do not apply another ALLSAFE branch’s hours to robotic storage.

The Sloterdijk location lists independent access every day from 07:00 to 23:00. Confirm who opens the building and unit, and whether the collection vehicle can use the intended loading space.
Rhoneweg location information ↗Prepare your storage unit for furniture collection in four steps
Separate what stays and what goes
Label retained belongings and list every piece for collection. Open your own boxes to check their contents. Photograph large furniture and measure items that may need dismantling.
Check the entire route through the facility
Include the unit doorway, corridor corners, goods lift, thresholds and distance to the van. Ask about loading bays, lift availability and permitted loading times. Do not assume a trolley or lift is always available.
Arrange access and submit your request
Enter the storage branch address and explain who can open the unit. Include a preferred date and any handover deadline. Keep access codes out of the general notes. Wait for confirmation before making dependent arrangements.
Inspect the space and complete the handover
Check that the agreed inventory has been removed and retained items remain. Follow the provider’s handover procedure yourself. Keep collection payment, any additional cleaning and the storage rental account separate.
Clearance service, reuse or removing the contents yourself?
furniturepickup.nl
Request carrying and transport of the agreed furniture in one collection. Describe the unit, access and inventory online. Costs are based on the published pricing and assessed scope; payment follows collection.
Reuse or selling
Suitable for usable furniture when another person or organisation accepts it. Agree who carries it out, arranges transport and can enter the storage building. Keep an alternative plan if collection falls through near your rental end date.
Removing it yourself or municipal disposal
You arrange carrying, a suitable vehicle and acceptance at the destination. Municipal options depend on the address and waste type. A rented storage unit does not automatically qualify for household doorstep collection. Confirm the applicable rules before leaving anything outside.
Local information around your storage address
Use the location of the storage facility for access and disposal questions. These local guides explain furniture removal and municipal options in the surrounding areas.

Frequently asked questions
Can you clear my Shurgard storage unit in Amsterdam?
You can request collection of furniture from your Shurgard unit. Include the exact branch, inventory and route from the unit to the loading area. Arrange with the branch how you or an authorised representative will provide access. After assessment, we confirm which items can be collected and when.
Can I have furniture collected from an ALLSAFE storage unit?
Yes, submit a request with your ALLSAFE branch name and address. Describe the floor, goods lift and any loading bay. For robotic storage, first ask how the belongings will be made available; do not assume a conventional corridor with directly accessible units.
Do you collect furniture from Storage Share?
You can submit a request for furniture stored at a Storage Share location. Provide the branch address and check how access for the collection team will be arranged. Assessment concerns your belongings and the actual access, not just the provider’s name.
How do I get rid of an old sofa in my storage unit?
Select the correct sofa type and photograph its size and any separate sections. Measure the unit door, corridor corners and goods lift. A broken sofa can be registered; describe sharp parts, dampness or other damage. Keep it in your own unit until the agreed collection.
Can you remove just a wardrobe, mattress or part of the contents?
Yes, you do not need to clear the entire storage unit. Select the wardrobe, mattress or other furniture to remove and clearly mark what stays. Make the selected items accessible without uncertainty about other belongings.
Do I need to be present when my storage unit is emptied?
Before confirmation, agree who will provide access and identify the belongings to remove. This may be you or someone authorised to act for you, where the branch rules permit it. Naming a storage provider does not give us independent access to your unit.
Should I put my access code in the request form?
No. Explain that a code, app or key is needed and who will arrange access. Do not include personal access codes in general notes or photos. Agree the practical access arrangements when the request is handled.
Is a goods lift enough to collect a large wardrobe?
Only if the furniture and complete route fit. Measure the lift doorway, interior and passage between the lift and unit. Also mention thresholds, long corridors or a loading bay. A suitable lift can simplify carrying; applicable lift surcharges appear in the price breakdown.
Is a full storage unit charged at a fixed price per square metre?
This website does not offer a fixed clearance rate per square metre. Provide the contents, quantities, dimensions and preferably overview photos. A full unit containing heavy wardrobes needs different assessment from the same floor area with a few light items.
Do you collect bulky waste from a storage facility for free?
furniturepickup.nl is a paid service. Do not assume municipal bulky-waste collection at a commercial storage facility has the same conditions as collection at your home address. Ask the branch how disposal is arranged and check any municipal options for that address.
Is my Shurgard or ALLSAFE rental cancelled automatically?
No. Our request covers assessment and collection of the agreed belongings. You arrange cancellation, the rental account and handover with the storage provider yourself. Check your own contract terms before planning an end date.
Will you leave the storage unit cleaned as well?
Removing furniture is different from cleaning, removing wall fixings or repairing damage. Describe any additional work beforehand. Only rely on work that has been explicitly assessed and agreed.
How quickly can a storage unit be cleared?
Provide your preferred collection date and any rental end date. Availability, volume and access are assessed first. Urgent or same-day service is not guaranteed. A date is only final once confirmed.
Which photos help with a storage clearance request?
Take an overview from the entrance, pictures of large furniture and images of the route outside. Show what is behind the front stack if you can do so safely. Avoid access cards, codes, documents and other tenants’ belongings. Photos are optional but help with assessment.
Do you also collect furniture from an apartment building’s storage room?
Yes, describe basement or storage access, stairs and distance to the street. Provide the residential address and correct entrance. Items in shared corridors or belonging to neighbours are not part of your request; identify only your own furniture to remove.
Can several storage units be emptied together?
List the inventory, floor and access for each unit. State whether they share one address. Different branches require separate coordination; do not assume a single trip or one base fee covers multiple addresses.
