What Are the Costs of Berlin International Movers?
One of the most popular places to live in Germany is in the capital city of Berlin. In fact, more than 45,000 expats choose to make this city their home each year. While taking time to learn to speak German is a clever idea, it helps that many people in Berlin speak English. Employment opportunities for English-speaking ex-pats and others can be found for both skilled and unskilled workers in many industries. Three Movers manages international moving services to Berlin, and we hope that this article will help detail what goes into the cost of a Berlin move.

What Goes into the Cost of a Berlin Move
When making an international move, there are many things to consider, as you will find yourself paying for housing, utilities, moving services, and more. Here are a few of the most significant expenses of a move to Berlin from overseas:
Apartment Rental- Most expats, as well as citizens, rent their homes in Berlin. Most property owners will charge up to three times the monthly rent to rent an apartment. Knowing German is also a clever idea because many property owners will refuse to rent to non-German-speaking people. Some will refuse to rent to non-citizens as collecting late rent payments from expats is often challenging. Hiring a licensed local real estate agent is a clever idea to find a local apartment.
Moving Services—Professional moving services are necessary for a seamless move to Berlin from the U.S. Moving services may include packing, loading, port-to-port and house-to-house delivery, junk removal, and storage.
Auto Transport—Most people in Berlin do not drive a personal car, but it is possible to import one from the U.S. The Cost depends on several factors, including distance, type of vehicle, type of transport, and import fees.
A visa is not required for U.S. citizens to enter Berlin for vacation or short travel stays up to 90 days. However, for longer or permanent stays, you will need to obtain a residence visa.
