I'm moving to a new apartment in Groningen next month and need to transport and install a used IKEA kitchen (cabinets, countertop, sink unit — about 8 pieces total) into my new place. I don't have a van and can't do the heavy lifting myself. What should I budget for one person to help with transport and assembly for maybe 6–8 hours?
✓ Accepted answer
For a half-day moving and assembly job like this in Groningen, expect to pay €80–130 per helper (typically €15–20/hour for skilled help-hands). Transport cost depends on whether you're hiring them with a van (€150–250 extra) or just labour. IKEA kitchen assembly adds time — budget €50–100 extra if they're doing that. Total: roughly €250–450 for one experienced person for a full day including van rental, or €150–250 if you source the van separately. Costs vary by complexity and whether parts are pre-cut.
