Moving costs Turbenthal
Turbenthal: what determines the cost of your move
Turbenthal lies around 19 km as the crow flies from Wallisellen; with us, travel there and back counts as working time. Within the municipality, the roughly 300 metres of altitude between the Töss and the Hofstetten boundary play a role: on the valley floor the stopping place can often be planned directly in front of the house, while farms and hamlets on the slope may need a smaller vehicle and longer carrying distances. If you move with us for the first time, you receive a 20 % new-customer discount.

Turbenthal at a glance
Turbenthal in the upper Tösstal: area, railway and hamlets
Every move in Turbenthal starts with a look at the local conditions: access, floors, parking and the route to the removal van. Turbenthal lies in the upper Töss Valley and, at 25.22 km², is one of the larger municipalities in the canton. The Tösstal railway has connected Turbenthal with Winterthur since 1875; today the S26 and S11 S-Bahn lines run here, plus four PostBus lines from the station.
Whether in the centre or in Hutzikon, Landenberg, Neubrunn, Oberhofen, Ramsberg and Schmidrüti: we clarify access and space conditions during the on-site survey before every move. Besides Turbenthal itself, we also operate in the neighbouring municipalities of Zell and Wila. Turbenthal belongs to the district of Winterthur in the canton of Zurich.

Moving in Turbenthal: what we pay attention to
Turbenthal is not a compact small town but a sprawling municipality in the Töss Valley with around ten former civil municipalities and numerous outlying hamlets such as Hutzikon, Girenbad, Schmidrüti and Sitzberg. Around a fifth of the population lives not in the village centre on Tösstalstrasse but in these hamlets – often on narrow access roads that require precise planning for a removal van. Anyone moving here needs a partner who knows the whole area, not just the station.
The village centre is shaped by former factory buildings from the textile era, for example on Bahnhofstrasse and Tösstalstrasse, where old spinning and weaving mills are now used as residential and commercial space. Such properties often have narrow stairwells or unusual access routes dating from their industrial past, which must be taken into account when transporting furniture. For stopping and parking permits on streets with little space, we coordinate early with the municipality of Turbenthal so that your moving day starts without a search for a parking space.
Whether an apartment in the village, a house in one of the outlying hamlets or commercial premises in an old factory building: we plan every Private Move and Corporate relocation in Turbenthal so that access, no-parking zone and parking are right from the start – at the cost ceiling agreed in advance.
Getting to know Turbenthal
Moving company Turbenthal: removals from the Töss up to 842 metres
Turbenthal's lowest point lies at 540 m above sea level on the Töss, at the boundary with Zell. The highest reaches 842 m above sea level at the boundary with Hofstetten. That means around 300 metres of altitude in between, spread over a municipality whose area is 57.1 % forest and only 5.2 % built-up (as of 2018). A moving company in Turbenthal has to take this topography into account in every plan.
Where the Neubrunnental joins the Tösstal
In the village centre, by the church, the Neubrunnental joins the Tösstal (Töss valley) from the east. It leads gently towards Bichelsee and the cantonal border with Thurgau. The municipal territory here includes the former civil municipality of Neubrunn and other hamlets. If your address is on the slope, we clarify vehicle size and carrying distance during the free viewing.
- Valley floor on the Töss: plan and reserve the stopping place directly in front of the house
- Farms and hamlets on the slope: allow for a smaller vehicle and longer carrying distances
- Large or heavy furniture: with a furniture lift via balcony or window if needed
Castle ruins, nobles' church and the Sitzberg organ
High above the village stood the ancestral castle of the Breitenlandenberg family, first mentioned in 1328 and demolished in 1804. Parts of it were built into houses and have partly survived. The Reformed church in the village centre was built from 1510 to 1512 and remained a nobles' church until the 19th century; its present tower has shaped the village scene since 1904. In the hamlet of Sitzberg stands a second Reformed church with a Baroque organ from 1741 to 1743.
The Ortsmuseum (local museum) in the former farm section of the Stiefelhaus tells of earlier life in the Tösstal. In old houses around the village centre, stairs and doors are not always designed for today's furniture. That is why we agree furniture assembly and dismantling with you in advance.
Fair, the Töss and the neighbourhood
Since 1830, Turbenthal has held its traditional fair in spring and autumn. If your move falls on such a day, we plan the stopping place and schedule accordingly. The Töss, which burst its banks several times before 1920, has been secured with weirs since the 1930s.
Home to 5,041 people (as of 2023), Turbenthal lies around 19 km as the crow flies from our base in Wallisellen. Downstream on the Töss lies Zell; up on the heights the municipality borders the former Hofstetten, which today belongs to Elgg. For a move to Winterthur along the Tösstal railway, your movers in Turbenthal are on hand too, on Saturdays if you wish.
Questions about Turbenthal
Do you also handle removals to Neubrunn in the Neubrunnental?
Yes. Neubrunn was a civil municipality of its own until civil municipalities were dissolved and today belongs to Turbenthal. The Neubrunnental joins the Tösstal from the east by the church. We clarify access and vehicle size during the viewing, on site or via WhatsApp video.
How do you plan a move to Sitzberg?
Sitzberg is a hamlet of Turbenthal, known for its church with a Baroque organ. Because the municipality reaches up to 842 m above sea level, we check access, carrying distance and vehicle size individually for every address there.
Local moving logistics
Turbenthal in the Tösstal: removal logistics for the village and outlying hamlets
At over 25 km², Turbenthal is one of the larger municipalities in Zurich and includes, besides the village, numerous hamlets up to over 800 m above sea level. For each location we match the vehicle and carrying distance separately.
Village centre on the Töss and Tösstalstrasse
The markets take place in spring and autumn around the church, the municipal building and the Sticki site. If your date falls in this period, we choose a different loading area or shift the schedule so that the vehicle does not get stuck in the market traffic.
Neubrunnental with Neubrunn and Steinenbach
The Neubrunnental branches off eastwards at the church and leads gently towards Bichelsee. For houses in the hamlets along the valley, we check the access width and whether the vehicle can turn on the property.
Sitzberg, Schmidrüti and other hilltop hamlets
In higher hamlets such as Sitzberg or Schmidrüti, the roads are narrow and winding. We use a suitable vehicle there and, for farms, allow for long distances between the front door and the loading area.
Parking reservation
Municipality of TurbenthalFor parking the removal van on public land, the Gemeinde Turbenthal (municipality) requires an application for use of public land. We submit it for you; the municipality invoices any fees to you directly.
Disposal
Dispose of small quantities of glass, paper or metal at your municipality's collection point. Furniture, mattresses or junk from the attic and barn that accumulate when clearing a house in the Tösstal we dispose of properly at CHF 65.– per m³.

Frequently asked questions
Questions about moving in Turbenthal and the Neubrunnental
Who handles a senior move with downsizing in Turbenthal?
Our team plans the move with you and your relatives without rushing. We sort things out together, pack everything on request, bring furniture and keepsakes to the smaller flat and arrange them in a familiar way. Whatever is not coming along is put into storage or disposed of properly.
How do you move into a flat in a former spinning mill on Tösstalstrasse?
With a viewing on site, because the entrances and stairs of such factory buildings do not follow the pattern of an apartment block. We measure passageways, plan which furniture will be dismantled and use the furniture lift if needed. If flats and businesses share the entrance, we arrange the loading area so that the businesses remain accessible.
How will you reliably find my house in hamlets such as Girenbad, Seelmatten or Tablat?
The easiest way is a location pin that you send us via WhatsApp, together with photos of the last stretch of road. Farm names and access roads in Turbenthal's former civil municipalities are not always clear. That way the driver knows the right turn-off before moving day and where the van can turn.
Where can household goods from Turbenthal go if they do not fit in the new flat?
In our warehouse, which is dry, climate-controlled and alarm-protected. When moving from a farmhouse to a flat, quite a lot may be left over that you do not want to give away straight away. We take it on moving day and deliver it later, whenever you need it.
When do you plan extra time in Turbenthal for snow or rain?
Whenever farms in the hilltop hamlets are reached via wet or snow-covered paths. We protect furniture and upholstery with blankets and film, and floor protection is laid inside the house. We state the extra effort openly, because the actual time is billed in 15-minute increments.
What applies when moving from Turbenthal through the Neubrunnental to Thurgau?
The drive towards Bichelsee is short, but you change canton: your vehicle registration and driving licence will in future be handled by Thurgau, and you deregister in Turbenthal and register at your new place of residence. We clarify the stopping place there with the responsible office. The checklist in the customer portal guides you through both sides.
How much do you charge for piano transport in Turbenthal?
From CHF 250.–. If the instrument is on an upper floor, behind narrow doors or on a farm with a long carrying distance, the effort increases. We pad the piano, secure it in the van and transport it insured; we state the amount after the viewing.
Which defects do you rectify at the flat handover in Turbenthal?
Anything the property management criticises about the cleaning at the inspection, from limescale in the bathroom to marks in the kitchen. Our team attends the handover appointment and deals with it immediately and free of charge. That way your Turbenthal flat is handed over in a single appointment.
