Rorschacherberg in 7 steps – between Lake Constance and the castle landscape
From the shore near Wartegg to the neighbourhoods above Rorschach: in Rorschacherberg, the elevation determines which vehicle goes and how far things are carried.
- 01
Survey by the lake or on the slope
During a walk-through, in person or by video, we assess the gradient, building access and stairwell; you then receive the quote within 24 hours.
- 02
Application to the Abteilung Tiefbau
If the removal van needs municipal ground, we submit the application to the Abteilung Tiefbau (civil engineering department); the authority charges the fee directly to you.
- 03
Clarify the boundary with Rorschach
If your household moves across the seamless boundary to Rorschach, we establish which municipality approves the parking space and plan moving out and moving in as one job.
- 04
Boxes in advance
Around two to three weeks beforehand, free boxes and packing material arrive at your home, so you can pack away books and seasonal items early.
- 05
Carrying on the slope
For steep routes we plan enough carriers and, where the stairwell is too narrow, a furniture lift; floors and lift are covered beforehand.
- 06
To Goldach, Thal or Eggersriet
We head straight to the new address in the region, where we put every piece of furniture in its place and our carpenters assemble anything that was dismantled.
- 07
Recycling tip and wrap-up
We take bulky items away for disposal, and you drop off tin cans at the Werkhof Rorschacherberg; afterwards we collect the boxes and invoice according to the quote.

Moving costs Rorschacherberg
What a move in Rorschacherberg costs: hillside location and access
There are marked differences in height between the lakeshore and the upper neighbourhoods of Rorschacherberg; the municipality is given an elevation of 570 m. A steep access road or a long carrying route to the front door adds to the work, while an address on the flat shore shortens it. Because travel there and back from Wallisellen, around 69 km as the crow flies, counts as working time, the distance matters too. We settle everything during the free survey, and the quote follows within 24 hours.

Rorschacherberg at a glance
Rorschacherberg above Lake Constance: castles, mountain railway and hillside homes
Every move in Rorschacherberg starts with us taking a look at the local conditions: access, floors, parking and the route to the removal van. Rorschacherberg lies on a hillside above Rorschach and extends down to Lake Constance east of Rorschach. The Rorschach–Heiden mountain railway stops at Seebleiche and Sandbüchel; castles include St. Annaschloss, Wartensee, Wartegg and Wiggen.
Besides Rorschacherberg itself, we also operate in the neighbouring municipalities of Eggersriet, Goldach, Horn (TG), Lutzenberg (AR) and Rorschach. Rorschacherberg belongs to the Rorschach constituency in the canton of St. Gallen.

Getting to know Rorschacherberg
Moving company Rorschacherberg: from the lakeshore up the hillside
Rorschacherberg lies on a slope above Rorschach and, east of the town, reaches down to Lake Constance. While Rorschach sits at around 400 m above sea level, Rorschacherberg is given an elevation of 570 m. Between the lakeshore and the upper neighbourhoods there are therefore marked differences in height. For a moving company in Rorschacherberg the key question is: how steep is the access, and how far is it from the van to the door?
Planning a hillside location properly
A house on a slope needs different preparation from a flat on the lakeshore. If you move from the bottom to the top or the other way round, you are dealing with two very different addresses on moving day. During the free survey, on site or by WhatsApp video, we therefore clarify:
- which vehicle size the access allows
- where the removal van can stop safely and whether a parking reservation is needed
- how long and how steep the carrying route to the front door is
- whether a furniture lift can take the pressure off the stairwell
With this information we prepare your quote within 24 hours.
A landscape with four castles
Within the municipality stand St. Annaschloss and the castles of Wartensee, Wartegg and Wiggen. Wartegg is now used as a hotel, Wartensee as a conference and meeting centre. The Federal Office of Culture lists the castle landscape of Rorschacherberg and Thal in the Inventory of Swiss Heritage Sites. Among the municipality's notable figures is Diethelm Blarer von Wartensee (1503–1564), Abbot of St. Gallen. Around historic sites like these and their access roads, we plan the parking space and carrying route with particular care.
Closely linked with Rorschach
The built-up areas of Rorschach and Rorschacherberg have largely grown together. In 2007 Rorschach, Rorschacherberg and Goldach examined a joint lakeside town with around 25,000 inhabitants. Rorschacherberg, however, rejected a merger at the end of 2008 and again in the vote on principle in 2014. The Rorschach-Heiden-Bergbahn mountain railway, also known as the Heidnerbahn, stops in the municipality at Seebleiche and Sandbüchel. Rorschacherberg has 7,285 inhabitants (as of 2018) and, besides Rorschach and Goldach, borders Eggersriet, Horn in Thurgau and Lutzenberg in Appenzell Ausserrhoden. Our base in Wallisellen is around 69 km away as the crow flies.
If you move within the region, you get the same planning from us: as removals company for Rorschach, for a move in Goldach or as moving company for Thal, which shares the castle landscape with Rorschacherberg. On request your movers in Rorschacherberg take care of furniture assembly, final cleaning and disposal, and also move you on Saturdays with no Saturday surcharge.
Questions about Rorschacherberg
How do you plan a hillside move in Rorschacherberg?
Rorschacherberg lies on a slope above Rorschach. During the survey we clarify access, parking space and carrying route and then choose the vehicle size; if needed, we use a furniture lift.
Do you also move people to homes near Wartegg and Wartensee castles?
Yes. Wartegg and Wartensee castles, like St. Annaschloss and Wiggen castle, are part of the Rorschacherberg castle landscape. For addresses in their surroundings we determine the parking space and access during the survey.
Local moving logistics
Removals in Rorschacherberg: Seebleiche, Sandbüchel and the castle landscape
Rorschacherberg climbs the hillside from Lake Constance and merges seamlessly into Rorschach. Before moving day we therefore check the municipal boundary, gradient and parking space for each address individually.
Seebleiche and Sandbüchel
The Rorschach-Heiden-Bergbahn stops at Seebleiche and Sandbüchel. For flats in the surrounding area we clarify where the removal van can stand safely away from the track and the stop, and what the carrying route looks like.
Transition to Rorschach
The built-up areas of Rorschacherberg and Rorschach largely run into one another. For a move across this barely visible boundary, we check which municipality is responsible for the parking space and plan both addresses in one job.
Around St. Annaschloss
One of the municipality's waste-glass collection points is at the St. Annaschloss car park. For flats near the castle we fix the parking space and carrying route in advance; you can drop waste glass from the move there yourself, sorted by colour.
Parking reservation
Abteilung TiefbauIn Rorschacherberg the Abteilung Tiefbau of the building administration is responsible for the use of public ground and the parking regulations. If the removal van needs space on municipal ground, we submit the application there; the authority invoices you for the fee.
Disposal
Werkhof RorschacherbergThe Werkhof Rorschacherberg (municipal works yard) accepts tin cans, and clean clothes and shoes go in the collection container at the Bauamt. You do not need to take furniture, wood or bulky items from the move anywhere yourself: we dispose of them properly for CHF 65.– per m³.
B2B
Office relocations in Rorschacherberg
The municipality sees itself as a place both to work and to live; Wartegg castle now serves as a hotel and Wartensee as a conference centre. We move offices, practices and businesses outside operating hours, and files as an archive relocation on request.

Frequently asked questions
Questions about moving in Rorschacherberg
Who does the end-of-tenancy cleaning in Rorschacherberg if I have already moved out?
Our cleaning team cleans the empty flat and is also on site for the handover to the property management. If anything is criticised, we put it right immediately and free of charge. This handover guarantee saves you a second trip to Lake Constance.
How does the removal van reach hillside houses on a narrow private road in Rorschacherberg?
During the survey we check whether a large van can drive along the road and turn there. If there is not enough space, we use a smaller vehicle and plan extra carriers for the rest of the way. Please check with the owners of the private road beforehand whether the van may stop there briefly.
Where will my furniture be if the new flat in Rorschacherberg is not yet available?
Safely in our storage, kept dry and climate-controlled and monitored by an alarm system. We collect everything from your current address, store it for the interim and deliver it directly to the new flat as soon as you have received the keys.
What do you look out for when moving from Rorschacherberg to Horn in Thurgau?
The change of canton: you deregister in Rorschacherberg and register in Horn, and a car needs Thurgau number plates. We apply for the parking space in Horn with the responsible office there, and here with the Abteilung Tiefbau. We look at the access and stairwell of both buildings beforehand so that vehicle and team are the right fit.
What applies when a parent moves from Rorschacherberg into a care home?
This change also has to be reported; the municipality recommends checking with the residents' office of the previous and the new municipality. We handle the move: together with you we choose what fits in the room, furnish it with familiar furniture and store or properly dispose of the rest.
How much does it cost to transport a piano to Rorschacherberg?
Piano transport starts from CHF 250.–; the final amount depends on the floor, stairs and route to the vehicle. We plan the instrument into the same job as the rest of your household goods, so no separate trip is needed.
