Moving in Altstadt Grossbasel

A move in Altstadt Grossbasel is detailed work. The medieval lanes around Spalenberg, Nadelberg and Münsterplatz are narrow, cobbled and lie in a traffic-calmed, partly vehicle-restricted zone. Large removal vans cannot reach the front door. Small vans with shuttle runs or a furniture lift have proven effective, since many listed heritage buildings have no lift.

Frequently asked questions about Moving in Altstadt Grossbasel

Why does a move in Altstadt Grossbasel need special planning?+
Altstadt Grossbasel lies in a traffic-calmed, partly vehicle-restricted zone with narrow, cobbled lanes. Large removal vans cannot reach the front door. Partner companies work with small vans, shuttle runs and, in many buildings, a furniture lift up the facade.
How far in advance must I apply for the no-parking zone?+
In Basel-Stadt at least 14 days before the moving date with the Allmendverwaltung. That is noticeably stricter than Lucerne or Zurich. In the old town the correct no-parking zone matters even more, as the lift or van otherwise has no legal spot.
Do I always need a furniture lift in the old town?+
Often yes. Many buildings in Altstadt Grossbasel are listed, have no lift and feature narrow, spiral stairwells. Larger furniture can then only be moved up the facade with a furniture lift. The partner company checks this at the survey or from your details.
Can removal vans reach my building in the old town?+
In most lanes, no. The norm is small vans with several shuttle runs to an approved spot at the edge of the restricted zone. State the exact address and floor so the quote factors in the extra effort correctly.
Can I combine the move and end-of-tenancy cleaning in the old town?+
Yes. Many partner companies offer the move plus end-of-tenancy cleaning with a handover guarantee as a combined package. For period flats with old floors and windows an experienced cleaning company is worthwhile. Select both services in the form.
