Auction collection service: your lots picked up and delivered

Bought at Troostwijk, Vavato or another auction house? We collect your lot — with manpower, the right vehicle and in time for the deadline.

Response within 60 minutes · Available every day, 8am–6pm

Winning a lot is the easy part. It then has to be collected within days — often at a location without loading assistance, sometimes a province or a border away. Our auction collection service takes that off your hands completely: you send the invoice, we plan the trip.

We drive past Dutch and Belgian auction locations daily and deliver throughout Europe. Heavy, fragile or bulky? Tell us in advance, and the right van and the right number of hands will be ready.

How it works

  1. Send your auction invoice

    Email or message us the paid invoice with lot number(s), collection location and final collection date. Several lots or auctions? We combine them into a single trip.

  2. We collect and load

    Our driver reports with your invoice, checks the lot and loads it himself — including the lifting.

  3. Delivered home, carried with care

    We deliver to your address in the Netherlands or elsewhere in Europe, by appointment. Our driver carries the lot with care for the entire trip: properly secured and protected.

Collecting from Troostwijk, Vavato and other auction houses

Auction houses do not help with lifting and set strict collection deadlines; arriving late can cost you the lot. With your paid invoice (with QR code or lot number) we may collect on your behalf — that authorisation is almost always sufficient. Send the invoice with your request and we will confirm immediately whether the deadline is feasible.

Why DZH Transport

Lifting included

Auction houses provide no loading assistance; we bring our own manpower and equipment, matched to your lot.

In time for the deadline

We plan around the auction house's collection window and confirm the trip in advance — so your lot is never lost because nobody came to collect it.

Cheaper than driving yourself

Often cheaper than renting a van, fuel and a day off — especially when we combine your lot with other trips.

What does it cost?

A collection trip starts from €35.00 per hour plus €0.35 per kilometre (excl. VAT); you pay for the actual trip, not a day rate. Enter the lot location and your home address in the calculator and you will see a from-price within a minute.

Frequently asked questions

I don't have a car or trailer — will you collect my lot?

Yes, that is exactly what this service is for. Send your lot number, the collection location and the final collection date, and we plan the trip — often cheaper than renting a van yourself.

Do you also help with lifting and loading?

Yes. Auction houses do not help with this themselves and usually provide no forklift. Pass on dimensions and weight in advance, and we arrive with the right vehicle and enough manpower.

What do you need to collect on my behalf?

The paid auction invoice with QR code or lot number is almost always sufficient authorisation. Send it digitally in advance, so the driver has everything ready at the desk.

Is this cheaper than renting a van myself?

Usually, yes. You only pay the actual hours and kilometres instead of rental, fuel and deposit — and you don't lose a day yourself. The calculator gives an instant from-price for your trip.

Is my lot insured during transport?

Not automatically. We carry your lot with care: our driver inspects it at loading and secures it properly. If it then goes with a carrier, you can insure it up to the lot price when you accept, at a price you see in advance.
