Furniture Moving Kyiv: prices for sofa, wardrobe & kitchen

An exclusive guide with real estimates: how many people and hours each furniture type needs, what requires disassembly and what doesn't — and how to avoid overpaying for an «extra crew».

Quick answer

Furniture moving in Kyiv means a vehicle + movers for a specific item. A sofa is usually moved with 2 movers in 1–2 hours (not 4 people for half a day). Estimate: from ~2,450 UAH for a sofa on a van, a wardrobe with disassembly — often 4,000–6,000 UAH.

VantageOK rates: movers from 350 UAH/hr, van from 450 UAH/hr, Gazelle from 600 UAH/hr, small furniture disassembly 400 UAH, large — 800 UAH. We work daily 09:00–21:00. Tel.: +38 (063) 724-86-04.

Most people are not looking for an «abstract move» but something specific: move a sofa from OLX, pick up a wardrobe from a store, relocate a kitchen to a new address. Below are tables by item, not generic phrases. All hours and crew sizes come from VantageOK's real practice: two people carry a washing machine in an hour, not a «crew for 4 hours».

How much furniture moving costs: table by item

Estimates for Kyiv with an elevator. Without an elevator — add time and floor surcharges. Full rate grid — on the tariffs page.

Furniture People Time Vehicle Estimate*
Standard sofa 2 1–2 hrs Van / Gazelle from ~2,450 UAH
Corner sofa 2–3 2–3 hrs Gazelle from ~3,500 UAH
Bed + mattress 2 1–2 hrs Van / Gazelle from ~2,450 UAH
Wardrobe (with disassembly) 2–3 2–3 hrs Gazelle ~4,000–6,000 UAH
Kitchen set 2–3 3–5 hrs Gazelle / maxi-bus ~5,000–8,000 UAH
Table + chairs 1–2 1 hr Minibus / van from ~1,750 UAH
Armchair / pouf 1–2 1 hr Minibus / van from ~1,750 UAH
*Estimate = minimum vehicle booking + movers' work within Kyiv, excluding floors and packing. We quote the exact total after you describe the item and addresses.
Sanity check: 1 furniture item ≠ 4 movers × 4 hours. If someone quotes that for a standard sofa — you're overpaying. For us, a sofa = 2 people, 1–2 hrs.

Real estimates (how we calculate)

Example 1. Sofa from the 3rd floor with elevator to another address

Van 450 UAH/hr (min. 1,350 UAH) + 2 movers × 2 hrs = 1,400 UAH. Total ~2,750 UAH. If the job fits the vehicle minimum — closer to ~2,450–2,750 UAH.

Example 2. Corner sofa from the 5th floor without elevator

Gazelle 600 UAH/hr (min. 1,800 UAH) + 2 movers × 2 hrs = 1,400 UAH + carrying down 5 floors × 2 × 15 UAH = 150 UAH. Total ~3,350 UAH. If the sofa is heavy and stairs are tight — a 3rd mover is better: shorter job, total often the same or lower.

Example 3. Wardrobe with disassembly

Disassembly/assembly 800 UAH + Gazelle (min. 1,800 UAH) + 2 movers × 2.5–3 hrs ≈ 1,750–2,100 UAH. Total estimate ~4,350–4,700 UAH within Kyiv with elevator.

Why not «from 500 UAH» like in ads? «From 500» usually excludes the vehicle minimum, a second person, and carrying upstairs. We show the breakdown openly — so Google and you see the real picture.

When to disassemble furniture and when not to

Situation What we do Price
Sofa fits through door and elevator Move assembled 0 UAH
Sofa / bed / table — needs disassembly Disassembly + assembly 400 UAH
Wardrobe, kitchen, large cabinet Almost always disassembled 800 UAH
Tip: sometimes disassembly is cheaper than fighting the stairs for an hour. One hour for two movers — 700 UAH; sofa disassembly — 400 UAH. Simple math.

If the furniture is old and you don't plan to use it again — see options in the article what to do with old furniture.
