Tenant-landlord disputes have boosted the transportation sector.

Disputes between tenants and landlords, which have increased in recent times in Turkey, have had a positive impact on the transportation sector. Particularly due to the rising rents and eviction cases in major cities, many tenants had to move to a new house. This situation significantly increased the business volume of transportation companies, with some days they mentioned moving 3 houses a day.

Fırat Uluç, the Chairman of the Board of Kozcuoğlu Transportation, who made statements on the issue, stated that they have observed a significant increase in transportation requests due to rental disputes in recent months. He said, ‘Problems between tenants and landlords accelerate the moving process. In order to meet these high demands in the best way possible, we have increased our team and vehicle numbers. We are doing our best to ensure that tenants move to their new homes smoothly. Some days, we end up moving 3 houses and not even having time to eat. We can say that the sector has come to life. Of course, our business is growing, but this situation between landlords and tenants also saddens us. We wish they could reach an agreement and tenants could stay in their homes. However, the economic situation and the increase in inflation are causing these disputes. At this point, we are trying to help our customers.’

Employment increased in the transportation sector

Uluç also mentioned the economic effects of this mobility in the transportation sector, ‘Increasing moving requests have increased the business volume and therefore the employment in the sector. This situation brings vitality to the transportation sector and also makes a positive contribution to the economy. However, it is also important not to overlook that this process is difficult for tenants. Taking permanent steps in terms of rental regulations and dispute resolution is important for tenants to live in a more stable and peaceful environment.’

Advice for those moving

Fırat Uluç also gave advice to those who will move, ‘It is necessary to move with official corporate companies that offer insurance, all-inclusive contracted services, and a single price guarantee. Otherwise, I would like to inform that there are grievances experienced with illegal transportation. I think it is beneficial to pay attention to the points I mentioned above in order not to be a victim.’ Uluç emphasized that they attach great importance to customer satisfaction as a transportation company, ‘We are working to minimize the stress of the moving process and provide quality service to our customers. We aim to be a leader in the sector in the future with these principles, and our customers can reach us at www.kozcuogluevdenevenakliyat.com for any information regarding the subject.’
