Beyond the Boxes: Moving to Switzerland, the First Step Towards Your New Life
A move is never just a change of address. It's a new chapter, an opportunity, sometimes a leap into the unknown. When it comes to an international move, like one to Switzerland, the stakes are even higher. You're not just moving objects, but your memories, your affections, your future.
True serenity doesn't come from emptying a house, but from the certainty that every single item, from the family painting to the most important document, arrives at its destination intact and without hitches. A well-executed move to Switzerland is the first day of your new life, managed with the care and precision you deserve.

With us, your move to Switzerland is a clear path, not an unknown.
The 'DIY' Trap and Hidden Costs: Protect Your Goods and Your Wallet
Many think they can save money by managing their move to Switzerland independently or by relying on improvised services. The reality is that "immediate savings" often turn into a nightmare of unexpected costs and irreparable damage. Wrong packing, a missing permit, an error in customs bureaucracy can cost you a fortune, both financially and emotionally.
We are your antidote to these pitfalls. Our many years of experience in international moving allow us to anticipate and solve every potential problem, guaranteeing maximum protection for your goods and total transparency on the costs of moving to Switzerland. Don't let the anxiety of chaos or the fear of damage ruin your new beginning.
The 'Impossible' Move Case: Our Experience at Your Service

Frequently Asked Questions About Moving to Switzerland
What documents are needed for a move to Switzerland?
For a move to Switzerland, several documents are required, including a detailed list of goods (household effects), identity document, rental or purchase agreement for the new Swiss residence, and, in some cases, specific declarations for particular goods. We will guide you through the entire customs clearance procedure and prepare all necessary documentation.
How much does a move to Switzerland cost?

We offer detailed and transparent quotes, without hidden costs, based on an accurate survey to guarantee maximum clarity from the start.
How does customs work for moving?
Swiss customs requires a precise declaration of the goods you import.

We handle all customs clearance procedures for you, ensuring the process is smooth and compliant with all current regulations.
Can I transport all my goods?
Generally yes, but there are some restrictions on specific goods such as weapons, hazardous substances, protected plants, or animals not compliant with Swiss regulations. We will provide you with a detailed list of what cannot be transported or what requires special permits, ensuring full compliance with Swiss laws.
