About us
And so our small but feisty removal company was born!
Our Story
We are a young logistics company founded in October 2018 by four friends. The idea started from a simple need to get a new sound system for our associations event management project. We decided to buy an old van to earn a few extra bucks by helping people handle their removals. Today we run an international removal company with heavy duty biofuel trucks delivering first class removal service around the whole Europe!
It is important to demand change but even more important is to enact it!
10 Reasons to choose KunnonMuutto
We are a genuinely ecological choice: our trucks, as well as many of our smaller vehicles run on biogas on domestic and international jobs. As our business grows, we will move towards our goal of 100% biogas and electricity. As we drive for hundreds of thousands of kilometres all across Europe the impact on the environment, or lack there-of, accumulates. We always fill our cargo space to its absolute safety limit so as to not transport air, so to speak.
Cargo is always packed and protected with blankets and other reusable materials. We only use recycled items in the office. Cleaning is done solely with ecological detergents. Our whole operation is guided by principles that enable sustainability.
We know our employees personally, because we interview and train them ourselves, instead of hiring temporary staff. We trust each member of our team enabling the confidence to offer you the best possible service. Change in staff is and has been minimal, as most of our movers have been with us since day one. We, the owners, also go on jobs repeatedly.
Right next to our ecological principles is your satisfaction. Our client specific services are designed to meet every wish you might have, concerning your transport or moving.
KunnonMuutto is a workplace where it is difficult to distinguish the employer from the employee. When ordering from us you can rest assured, that the salaries are evenly distributed instead of the employer reaping the benefit at the expense of the employee. Our employees may observe from their payroll when “business is good”, and meanwhile, the weight on the environment is lightened as we occupy space from the competing, less ecological businesses.
From packing, through cleaning and customs processing, to moving lift we offer everything your moving might require. Whatever you may need, please, do not hesitate to ask! Before starting our business, we organized festivals, which resulted in a certain thirst for challenges; we’ve not seen it all, but we’ve seen a lot!
All too often, in this line of work, you come across a situation wherein furniture of decent condition is dumped by the request of the client. We can’t save each closet or sofa, but we strive to prolong the lifespan of as many as we can with the recycle service of ours called KunnonKierrätys, which can be found and joined in Facebook.
KunnonMuutto isn’t only about pretty words. They reflect our actions in the office, as well as on free time. We confront our leaders to address problems we notice, such as the mixture obligation, which is an obligation to mix biofuel with fossil fuel. A topic, our manager, Teemu Taurula discussed with Maria Ohisalo, the sitting Minister of the interior of Finland.
We aren’t set in our ways! We conform with the everchanging way of the world, just as with the various needs of our clients. Our team is always looking into new ways to improve our mode of operation – we want our service to improve by the day! We always make use of the latest available technology and we are always prepared to change to ever more sustainable alternatives. Our company’s oldest holder, 26 years of age, along with his peers and their youthful fervour, are determined to make a lasting change on the moving and transport industry. We are committed to the improvement of our business from an economical, as well as an ecological aspect.
We do not cooperate with dubious, or environmentally reckless businesses. In both domestic and international moves we have been careful to only select trustworthy partner businesses. We are in constant search of suitable partners as we conquer our way forward, to a greener future!
As much as it should be obvious, we always give an opportunity to any applicants for specific tasks without considering their age, sex or gender, or other irrelevant factors.
Our Arsenal
”Domina”
50-100 m3
”Kingi”
46 m3
A biogas-powered testament to Swedish engineering, our proud Flagship rides effortlessly on the ever-growing waves of ecological transportation. The insatiable biogas driven giant eats sofas for breakfast, and whole apartments for dinner; a hunger best explained by its Viking-origins.
”Pirkko”
35 m3
”Kerkko”
35 m3
An italian stallion you can trust to deliver. This young Fiat is like Kingi’s little brother, who eats a little less biogas but does his absolute best to keep up with his big brother.
”Linkola”
20 m3
Better late than never, as the saying goes. Due to a component shortage in its factory, this dashing deliverer came to our eager crew a few months late. Was it our excitement or the sheer delight of its driveability that makes the car so special, one can only guess. As is the case with its namesake in Finnish politics, Linkola certainly has character, whether you agree with him or not!
”Massimo”
16 m3
With it’s Italian temperament and beauty almost switched to showbusiness as a stunt car having had a minor bump on a film set. It’s sizable behind might indeed be too hot to handle to some, who have yet to experience the southern charm. Italian engineering at its finest! Una bellissima macchina, a truly beautiful car.
”Mandy”
2 m3
Not getting the attention it needs, our smallest vehicle is used on some smaller delivery and distribution jobs which it performs admirably. This biogas-consuming postman’s best friend is also up for sale, as it is not in heavy use at KunnonMuutto. The mileage is as cute as the Caddy itself.
