Moving service in Riga — local and international movers

Moving service in Riga — FF International Movers professionally wrapped and packed furniture in a Riga city-centre apartment

Looking for a reliable moving service in Riga? FF International Movers is a Riga-based moving company operating since 2001. We handle local apartment, house and office moves within Riga and across Latvia, as well as international removals to 92 countries — all with our own trained crews, not subcontractors.

Most people searching for movers in Riga fall into one of two groups: someone changing apartments inside the city who wants it done quickly and without damage, and someone relocating to or from Latvia across borders. We do both every day, with the same team and the same standard of care — over 3,300 completed moves, from a single wrapped sofa carried down a narrow Old Town staircase to the collections of the National Library of Latvia and airBaltic's head office.

Local moving service in Riga — apartments, houses and offices

For local moves inside Riga and the surrounding area, FF International Movers provides a full-service crew, not just a van and two loaders. Our local moving in Riga starts from 29 EUR per hour per mover, and every job includes the equipment, protection and know-how that keep your belongings safe.

A typical local move includes packing with five-layer cartons and bubble wrap, furniture dismantling and reassembly, careful carrying on any floor — including central Riga buildings with no lift and tight stairwells — and transport in vehicles fitted with straps and blankets. We work across every Riga neighbourhood — the Centre and Old Town, Āgenskalns, Teika, Purvciems, Mežaparks, Imanta — and the greater Riga area including Mārupe, Ķekava, Ādaži and Jūrmala. Where access is difficult, we coordinate the time slot with the building manager and arrange truck parking in advance. Because we give a fixed written estimate before the work starts, you know the price up front rather than watching an hourly meter run.

International moving service from and to Riga

The same Riga base also runs our international side. As a FEDEMAC member since 2003 and part of the IAM (since 2002) and IMA networks covering 170+ countries, we can collect or deliver household goods almost anywhere in the world and move them to or from Latvia.

International moves add layers that a local move does not: export packing to survive multiple handlings, an inventory for customs and insurance, customs clearance and documentation, and a choice of transport — direct road freight (2–4 days from Germany, the Netherlands or the UK), sea container for larger volumes and overseas origins, or air freight for urgent shipments. Moving your primary residence into Latvia from outside the EU usually qualifies for duty-free and VAT-free import of your used household goods; we tell you exactly which documents to prepare and handle the filing. One dedicated coordinator, who speaks English, stays with your move from the first survey to the last box unpacked.

Why choose FF International Movers in Riga

Riga has no shortage of moving companies, so here is what sets us apart. We have been operating since 2001 — 25 years of local and international experience. We are a FEDEMAC member since 2003, the European movers' federation quality standard, and hold IAM and IMA membership. We carry liability insurance covering both your goods and third-party property such as the stairwell or a neighbour's car, with additional cover available for high-value items. And we have been trusted with the irreplaceable — the National Library of Latvia and airBaltic's head office — which is the clearest proof that the crew handling your apartment can handle anything. Our Google rating is 4.8 from real customer reviews.

For expats, diplomats and returning Latvians, that combination matters: you get a genuinely local Riga mover for the practical work and a fully accredited international mover for the paperwork and cross-border logistics — from one company, in one contract.
