About us, since 1897

Movers in North Zealand since 1897

We have moved families and companies in North Zealand for more than 125 years. The owners have changed along the way; the approach has not. An agreement is an agreement, your needs come first, and a move that simply works.

Our history

A business built on trust

Holte Flytte- & Vognmandsforretning was founded in 1897 by Jørgen Rasmussen with two horse-drawn wagons. The business has changed hands a few times since, and each time the people, the vehicles and the customers came with it. In 2026 we became part of Ewalds ApS, with Morten Ewald Gartmann as managing director. The team, the warehouse and the way we move are unchanged.

When you book a move with us you are talking to the office in Birkerød, not a call centre. The agreements we make are the ones we keep.

Our values

How we work

Six principles that have run the business since 1897.

An agreement is an agreement

What we promise, we keep. A clear hourly rate, fixed times, and no surprises on the day or on the invoice.

A safe move

We are members of DMF and insured through IF on DMF terms, from the moment your belongings leave the old home until they are in place in the new one.

Built around your needs

We fit the move around you, not the other way round. Evenings, weekends, urgent jobs, extra care for artwork or a piano: we find a way.

Experience that counts

Our movers have done this for years. They know where to take hold, and where it goes wrong if you do not.

Local and close by

We are based in Birkerød and live in the area ourselves. You talk to real people, not a call centre, and we know the roads.

No hidden fees

You know the hourly rate before we turn up, and you pay only for the time we use. We believe in transparency, and you get it every time.
