What moves Solingen, we deliver.

From production to back office: our couriers drive where Solingen's economy works – with an instant price before booking, live tracking on the map, and a digital proof of delivery for every run.

  • Klingenstadt: blades between Wald, Gräfrath and Höhscheid

    Solingen is Germany's blade city – Zwilling J.A. Henckels, Wüsthof and Heinr. Böker Baumwerk are based here, and the origin mark Solingen is protected by law. Blanks, handle scales, sample series and test pieces often cross the city several times between hardening shops, grinderies, electroplaters and assembly. If a batch is left sitting at a finisher, the whole chain breaks – and assembly stops. Maxmove moves part batches between the workshops as direct trips, without reloading; you see the instant price before you book.

  • Electroplating and plastics for the automotive industry

    With the BIA Group, Solingen is home to an automotive supplier that moulds plastic components and electroplates them – a craft that has shaped Bergisch surface technology for generations. Tools, first-article samples and test pieces shuttle between toolmaking, plating, the measuring room and the customer's plant. When a first-article sample misses the approval date at the manufacturer, the series launch slips – and an entire project waits. Maxmove drives samples and tools straight to the plant gate as an express run, and live tracking shows the project team the arrival.

  • Mail order and manufactories in Ohligs and Mitte

    Walbusch, a long-established mail-order house, is at home in Solingen, joined by factory outlets and manufactories that ship straight to end customers. Sample pieces, collection items, catalogues and single parcels move between warehouse, photo studio, returns desk and shop floor. If a collection sample misses the photo shoot, the campaign launch collapses – and half the page is missing. Maxmove collects at the warehouse or studio and drives to the destination without a stopover; the digital proof of delivery with photo, signature and timestamp documents the handover.

On the ground in Solingen: local knowledge that saves delivery time.

Traffic in Solingen: hillsides, the Viehbachtalstraße and the A3

Solingen sits on the heights of the Bergisches Land, and anyone who knows the city stops thinking in straight lines: the Viehbachtalstraße is the only real fast link between Ohligs and Mitte, while the A3 to the west and the A46 to the north connect it to the Rhine corridor. The Müngstener Brücke links Solingen and Remscheid for trains only – vehicles take the detour through the Wupper valley, and that costs time. Whether it's a pickup at a grindery in the Ittertal or a delivery up the steep lanes to Gräfrath – the route decides the driving time. You see the available pickup window before you book, and you follow the drive live on the map.

Zöppkesmarkt: when the city centre becomes a flea market

On the second weekend in September the Zöppkesmarkt fills the pedestrian zone – one of the largest street flea markets in North Rhine-Westphalia, named after the small Solingen paring knife. For retail, hospitality and stallholders that means closed streets and fixed delivery times – arrive late and you stand at the barrier. Maxmove plans the closures into the route and hands over at the agreed entrance; you add access route and contact person in the notes field when booking.

Connections: Solingen between the Bergisches Land and the Rhine

Wuppertal, Remscheid, Düsseldorf and Köln are all a short distance away – Solingen links the Bergisch city triangle with the Rhine corridor, and the long-distance station in Ohligs carries business travellers both ways. Finishers, suppliers and plants sit so close together that same-day runs with tight windows stay plannable. Maxmove runs every connection as a direct delivery without reloading.

Courier service Solingen: questions from the field.

Concrete answers for runs in Solingen – from trade fairs and plant gates to matchdays and the city centre.

Does Maxmove move part batches between hardening shop, grindery and assembly in Solingen?

Yes. In the blade city a knife usually passes through several workshops – hardening, grinding, plating, assembly – and every batch left sitting somewhere blocks the next step. Maxmove moves part batches between the workshops as a direct trip, with one vehicle exclusively for your shipment and without reloading. You add workshop, collection point and contact person in the notes field when booking; live tracking shows every leg on the map.

Does Maxmove also serve Solingen's hillside districts like Gräfrath or Burg?

Yes. Solingen is spread across hills and valleys, and addresses in Gräfrath, Burg or Höhscheid sit behind steep lanes and hairpin bends – groupage routes tend to skip destinations like these. Maxmove drives to every address directly, and you pick the vehicle class that can still manoeuvre on site. Narrow access, stairs or missing loading space go into the notes field when booking, so the driver arrives prepared. On the map you follow the drive live right up to the handover.

How does Maxmove get from Solingen to Remscheid when the Müngstener Brücke carries only trains?

The Müngstener Brücke is Germany's highest railway bridge and links Solingen and Remscheid for trains alone – vehicles have to take the detour through the Wupper valley, and senders from outside the region consistently underestimate it. Maxmove builds that detour into the route from the start and drives your shipment to the destination as a direct delivery without reloading. You see the instant price for the complete route before you book.

Does Maxmove collect shipments at Solingen Hauptbahnhof in Ohligs?

Yes. Solingen's main station sits in Ohligs and is the city's long-distance stop – if you're picking a document or a device off a train, you usually have a narrow window before the next appointment. Maxmove drives from the station straight to the destination address, without a stopover and without reloading. You add meeting point, platform and contact person in the notes field when booking, and the digital proof of delivery with photo, signature and timestamp documents the handover.

Does Maxmove deliver into Solingen city centre during the Zöppkesmarkt?

Yes. On the second weekend in September the pedestrian zone is one big flea market, streets are closed and loading zones occupied – turn up unannounced and the vehicle stops at the barrier. Maxmove plans the closures into the route and hands over at the agreed entrance or directly at the stand. You add access route, time window and contact person in the notes field when booking; live tracking shows the recipient the arrival.
