Key-day meter readings, registering the new home and closing the old account, including overlapping tenancies and shared meters.
Plan your water moveTake the actual reading at the Zeewolde handover before completing account details
Prepare water for a Zeewolde home with Vitens information and the full supply address. The rental agreement establishes whether the account should be in your name. If so, keep the actual reading taken when you receive the keys with that date, and use those details for the registration or moving request appropriate to your account situation.

Vitens supplies the centre of Zeewolde. Confirm your exact address with its address check, especially near the edge of the municipality.
About VitensArranging water
Renting in Zeewolde usually means dealing with Vitens, unless your landlord arranges water for you. These three steps follow the order of a typical move: settle who holds the account, confirm and register the address with Vitens, then record the key-day reading and close the account at the home you are leaving.
Look in your Zeewolde tenancy agreement for water in the rent or the service charges. If the landlord holds the Vitens account, you do not register yourself.
Run Vitens's address check with your postcode and house number, then register from the date you receive the keys with the opening meter reading.
Photograph the meter and its number on key day, submit the reading to Vitens, and report the move at your previous address separately.
The supplier
Vitens supplies drinking water across a large part of the central, eastern and northern Netherlands. Its customer tools separate registering a home, ending an old account and managing an existing contract in Mijn Vitens. For renters, the key questions are who pays the supplier, which meter belongs to the home, and which readings apply at key handover.
Vitens describes its main region as Friesland, Flevoland, Overijssel, Gelderland and Utrecht. This is not an exclusive province-level rule: other suppliers serve some border areas and parts of Utrecht. Check the actual property rather than assigning a supplier from the province alone.
