How to become a mover in the Netherlands
The Dutch moving industry is well-organized. Professional movers can earn recognition as an erkend verhuizer (recognized mover) through the EVB (Erkende Verhuizers Branchevereniging), the industry association. EVB members adhere to quality standards, use standardized contracts, and offer consumer protections.
For companies operating trucks over 3.5 tons for hire, a NIWO (Nationale en Internationale Wegvervoer Organisatie) license is required. This involves demonstrating financial standing, professional competence (through a CCV exam), and good repute. Drivers need the appropriate rijbewijs (driving license) category — C or CE for heavy trucks.
