What influences the moving price?

Home size

More rooms and furniture means more work and volume.

Floor & lift

Without a lift, there are extra costs for carrying. A lift or furniture lift saves time and money.

Distance

Local moves are cheaper than inter-cantonal or national ones.

Additional services

Packing, assembly, cleaning or clearance affect the price.

Date

Moves on weekdays and outside the peak season are often cheaper.

Accessibility

Narrow access or lack of parking can increase the effort.

Saving tips: how to make your move cheaper

  • Choose a weekday date or off-season (Mar–Sep).
  • Declutter early – less volume means lower costs.
  • Pack yourself and partly handle the furniture assembly.
  • Arrange a no-parking zone for shorter carrying distances.
  • Compare several quotes – but focus on fixed price over hourly rate.
  • Combine move and final cleaning – often cheaper than separate.
