Easy and affordable student moving

Preparing for your student move

Pack what you can into boxes or suitcases — it saves time and money. Label the boxes so unpacking goes quickly. Disassemble desks and bookshelves if they won't fit through the door whole. Collect screws in a bag and tape it to the furniture. Check that there's parking for the van at both addresses and have keys or door codes ready. Living in a corridor? Let your neighbours know there'll be some activity in the hallway.

Moving to a university city

Term start means thousands of students moving to new cities at the same time. Competition for rental vans and trailers is fierce, and asking friends to help in the middle of the move-in rush rarely works out. With our student moving service you skip the stress. We book your move at a time that works for you, drive the full distance and carry everything into your new room. Whether you're moving to Stockholm, Gothenburg, Uppsala, Lund, Linköping or another university town, we pick you up where you live and drive where you need to go. Perfect when leaving home for the first time or switching cities between bachelor's and master's.

Moving from a university city

Degree done, lease ending or internship in another city? Moving out of student housing often happens fast — the lease is terminated at short notice and suddenly everything needs to be out. We handle student moves at short notice, often the same week. We pack, carry out of the corridor room or studio, load the van and drive to your new address — whether it's your parents' house, a new flat or a friend's sofa while you look for somewhere to live.

What's included in student moving?

• Van We arrive with a van that fits an entire student flat — no need to rent a car or ask someone to drive.
• Carrying We carry everything out through corridors, stairs and tight doorways — and carry it in at the new address.
• Disassembly Desks, bookshelves and bed frames that need taking apart — we reassemble them at the new place.
• Transport We drive the full distance, whether it's within the city or between cities.
• Packing Haven't had time to pack everything? We pack what's left and bring protective materials for fragile items.
• Insurance Everything is insured during transport — if anything gets damaged, we compensate for it.

You choose which parts you need. Already packed and just need carrying and transport? Perfect — book exactly that.

Why book student moving with Ungdomskraft?

Ungdomskraft is not an ordinary removal company — and that suits students especially well. We are a social enterprise that employs young people and gives them real work experience. The team carrying your stuff genuinely understands your situation. They are young themselves, they know what a tight budget means and they treat your belongings as their own. Every student move is a chance for them to prove themselves, and that mindset shows in everything — from how they pack your laptop to how they carry your bed up five flights of stairs with no lift.

Since our founding in 2014, we have carried out thousands of student moves across the Stockholm and Gothenburg regions and to university cities around Sweden. Along the way, we have given thousands of young people their first real work experience — with everything that entails: turning up on time, communicating professionally, solving problems on-site, collaborating as a team and taking responsibility for the result. Our workers learn packing techniques, lifting techniques, safe loading and how to handle everything from fragile screens to heavy bookshelves. They are trained to protect your belongings, floors, walls and door frames — and to always leave both old and new homes in good condition.

This is not just good for the young people — it is good for you as a customer. You notice the difference in commitment and energy. Our teams run where others walk, double-check that everything is loaded correctly and always ask if there is anything else they can help with. We have built a culture where every student move is seen as a chance to exceed expectations, and it shows in the hundreds of five-star reviews we have received on Trustpilot and Google.

But it is not just about quality — it is about meaning. Every student move you book through Ungdomskraft directly contributes to a young person gaining work experience, learning a trade and building their CV. Many of our workers go on to permanent positions in logistics, transport or service industries — carrying with them the values and work ethic they learned with us. Choosing us means your student move becomes part of something bigger.

We also take sustainability seriously. Furniture and items that are not coming with you are sorted and taken to the right recycling station or donated to charities such as Myrorna, Erikshjälpen and Stadsmissionen. Nothing is dumped unnecessarily.

It is affordable student moving with purpose.

Student moving qualifies for the Swedish RUT tax deduction. You get a 50% deduction on the labour cost – up to SEK 75,000 per person per year. The deduction is handled directly on the invoice, making your student move even more affordable.
