How much does a residential move in Zurich cost?

Costs depend on flat size, floor and any add-on services. After a free survey you receive a binding fixed price — no hourly rate, no surprises.

How far in advance should I book a moving company?

We recommend booking 4–6 weeks in advance, especially during peak season. We're happy to accommodate last-minute requests if capacity allows.

Is it worth hiring a moving company?

Yes — especially with heavy furniture, narrow staircases or a tight schedule. With AHH Umzug Team your move is insured, punctual and stress-free.

When are the official moving dates in the canton of Zurich?

The most common moving dates in Zurich are 1 April, 1 July, 1 October and 1 January. Demand is particularly high on these dates — book early.

What do I need to consider when moving in Switzerland?

Plan ahead: de-register at your current address and re-register at the new one, arrange key handovers, end-of-tenancy cleaning and any disposal. We support you from disassembly through to the final clean with acceptance guarantee.

Moving to Zurich as an Expat

Relocating to Zurich from abroad is a different challenge than a local move. You may not know which neighbourhoods have strict parking rules, which buildings require advance notice for moves, or exactly what condition Swiss landlords expect the flat handed back in. We do.

AHH Umzug Team has handled hundreds of expat and international relocations to and within Zurich. We know the process, we communicate in English, and we coordinate the Swiss-specific requirements so you do not have to figure them out under pressure. If you combine your move with end-of-tenancy cleaning → /en/umzugsreinigung/, we handle the full handover of the old flat — so you can focus on settling into the new one.
