International Movers to and from Almelo
Almelo lists its pedestrian streets by name, enforces them with cameras, sells a day exemption at €15.00 by email within minutes and answers a heavier RVV request in up to four weeks.
A few short questions. Nothing is sent until you check and confirm.
Which tools does Almelo offer for a move?
Movers in Almelo choose between two tools. A day exemption for the pedestrian area is bought online for €15.00 and arrives by email within minutes. A fuller RVV exemption, the council's exemption from the national traffic rules, costs €64.00 and takes up to four weeks.
The council's page on the RVV exemption names moving as an example of carrying big, heavy things too far. Duty relief is dealt with on the customs page.
Which Almelo streets are in the pedestrian area?
Marktplein, Corridor, Passage, De Galerij, Grotestraat, Kerkstraat, Amaliaplein, Schuttenstraat, Koornmarkt, Hagenstraat, Hagengracht, Klara Zetkinstraat and Rosa Luxemburgstraat.
In that area you may load and unload only from Monday to Saturday between 7.00 and 11.00. Outside these times you need a day exemption if you need it directly or within four weeks, and an RVV exemption otherwise. The council uses plate-reading cameras, and a scooter, moped or light moped may be walked in by hand.
What does each exemption cost?
The day exemption is €15.00. The RVV exemption is €64.00 when you pay by iDEAL and €84.55 on an invoice, both 2026 prices.
You pay for the request, even if the council then refuses. The day exemption is for one plate, and a trailer with its own plate can be registered during the request but the plate cannot be changed afterwards. It starts when the confirmation email arrives and lasts until 11.00 the next day; for a later date, it is valid from midnight on the chosen day until 11.00 the next day.
The council grants an RVV exemption only where it is needed for your work. A household move normally reaches the council through the removal firm.
Where are the other Overijssel towns?
Almelo is the one Overijssel town with a guide of its own; the others are named on the Netherlands hub.
Enschede (162,683), Zwolle (134,147), Hengelo (84,045) and Kampen (56,835) are named on the Netherlands hub with no rule read, because their council pages could not be opened. Deventer (105,111) asks for a short exemption at least two weeks ahead, with a fee of €12.40.
What should you still ask Almelo?
The new exemption forms for the car-light centre, which the council says it is still arranging, were not read.
Expect the rules to change when the new forms arrive. Ask the council which form applies on your date. For another town that prices a pedestrian-centre day exemption, see Hoorn; the stages of the whole move are in the UK to Netherlands guide, and the shared zone rules in the zones guide.
