Offerio in Zurich — Local expertise

Zurich is one of the busiest moving markets in Switzerland. With a tight housing market, high rents and a vacancy rate below 0.5%, many Zurich residents are under time pressure. offerio.ch works with carefully moving partner companies, cleaning firms and specialists across the canton of Zurich, from the city centre through the agglomeration to the suburban municipalities. Under our admission criteria, partner companies are insured, rated and regularly vetted. Many Zurich partners also serve the upper Lake Zurich area in the canton of Schwyz – the Höfe (Pfäffikon SZ, Wollerau, Freienbach), Lachen and Einsiedeln.

When should I book a moving company in Zurich?+
Plan your Zurich move at least 4–6 weeks in advance, and ideally 8 weeks ahead for month-end dates or the peak season (April–September). Free slots at month-end are particularly scarce in Zurich.
Which weekday is cheapest for a move in Zurich?+
Tuesday to Thursday in the middle of the month is cheapest for a Zurich move. Month-end dates cost up to 30% more, and weekends are also more expensive.
What do I have to do at the residents' office after moving in Zurich?+
You must re-register at the responsible district office (Kreisbüro) within 14 days. For a move within Zurich you can pre-register online via eUmzugCH, but a personal appearance with ID remains mandatory.
How do I get my rental deposit back after the move in Zurich?+
If the flat and utilities are without complaint, the landlord must release the deposit within 30 days. The landlord may withhold the deposit for a maximum of 12 months for outstanding claims. After that you can have the deposit account released yourself.
How do I organise a parking space for the moving van in Zurich?+
For the White Zone, pre-registration 3 days in advance is enough; for the Blue Zone, at least 7 days. The cost is around CHF 5 per day and sign. Ask your moving company to handle it or contact the Zurich city police directly.
