What Steiner does

Steiner Umzüge, Transporte und Lagerungen is a founder-owned sole proprietorship based in Neuss, Germany, providing full-service residential, senior, office, employee, and international moving services. Founded in 1996 by Jürgen Steiner, who remains the owner and active managing director, the company operates with approximately 13 employees from its Bockholtstraße headquarters and serves the Rhein-Kreis Neuss, Düsseldorf, and surrounding municipalities, with Germany-wide and overseas relocations coordinated through the MoveAlliance partner network.

The service portfolio covers planning, packing, furniture transport, assembly/disassembly, kitchen installation, storage, disposal, document destruction, and no-parking zone setup. A distinctive proprietary asset is the 'Hulk' high-capacity furniture lift reaching up to 27 meters with a 400 kg payload, used to move furniture to upper floors without stairwell access. Supporting infrastructure includes a Vue.js-based online quote tool (offering up to 7.5% discount for digital bookings), an online shop for moving materials, and partnerships with StorangeBOX (storage) and Transratio (load-space balancing).

Revenue is generated primarily through project-based fixed quotes issued after on-site inspection, targeting four segments: private households (including seniors downsizing), SMEs requiring office or employee relocations, and international/expat customers. Distribution is direct-to-consumer via phone, email, website contact, and on-site consultation, with AMÖ, VEU, VVWL, BVAA, and MoveAlliance memberships providing quality certification and dispute resolution pathways. The company carries a 4.2/5 Google rating across 50 reviews and reports no external funding or ownership changes.

Direct peers

• AGS Worldwide Movers: International relocation company providing household goods moving, corporate relocation, and international partner coordination across continents. Comparable to Steiner because Steiner also offers overseas moves to UAE, Asia, Europe, USA, and Australia via its MoveAlliance partner network, addressing the same corporate and expat customer base.
• SIRVA Worldwide Relocation: Global relocation provider covering household goods moving, expat services, and corporate relocations. Comparable because Steiner's international move offering targets the same employer-funded corporate relocation and expat customer segment that SIRVA serves at much larger scale.
• Crown Worldwide Group (Crown Relocations): Global mobility and relocation company offering international household moves, storage, and destination services. Comparable to Steiner in the international relocation segment, where both rely on partner networks to deliver worldwide origin-to-destination moves for corporate and private clients.
• König Umzüge: One of Germany's larger regional full-service moving companies offering private, business, and international moves. Comparable to Steiner because both offer a similar one-stop moving portfolio (packing, transport, storage, assembly, disposal) for residential and commercial customers in Germany.
• Intermove GmbH: German private and commercial moving company offering local, long-distance, and international moves with similar service breadth. Comparable because both are German-based movers covering private, business, and international relocations for comparable customer segments.
• Schulten GmbH Umzüge: Regional German moving company based in the Cologne area offering private, commercial, and international moves. Comparable to Steiner because both operate as mid-sized, full-service German movers with similar customer profiles (private households, SMEs, corporate accounts) and overlapping service menus.

Broad incumbents

• Hermes Germany (Otto Group): Major German parcel and last-mile logistics provider owned by the Otto Group, also offering furniture and bulky-goods logistics. Comparable as a broad logistics incumbent that intersects with the bulky-goods transport category Steiner operates in, though its core focus is parcel rather than household relocation.
• DB Schenker: One of the world's largest logistics providers, offering freight, contract logistics, and supply chain management. Comparable to Steiner only at the broadest industry level (transport/logistics), but DB Schenker does not typically serve individual household moves, making it an incumbent in the broader logistics space rather than a direct mover competitor.

Emerging players

• MyHammer: German online marketplace where customers post moving and transport jobs and receive bids from service providers. Comparable to Steiner as a competing customer-acquisition channel: MyHammer aggregates the same price-sensitive local moving demand that Steiner targets, and represents an emerging digital threat to traditional local movers.
• Umzugspreisvergleich.de: German online platform that lets customers compare quotes from multiple moving companies. Comparable to Steiner as a customer-acquisition channel: it aggregates the same private-moving demand and routes it via price competition, putting further commoditization pressure on traditional local movers like Steiner.
