Moving in Sennwald in 8 steps – Rhine plain and foot of the Alpstein
Five villages, two landscapes: whether Haag and Salez on the plain or Sax and Frümsen on the slope, these eight steps take you safely through your move.
- 01
Video appointment or home visit
We look at the flat and access and clarify whether your house is on the flat Rhine plain or at the steeper foot of the Alpstein; the quote follows afterwards.
- 02
Reserving space in the village
If the van has to stop on public land in Sennwald, Haag or Sax, we apply for the reservation; you receive the fee from the authority.
- 03
Boxes in good time
About two to three weeks beforehand, we bring free boxes and packing paper so that your cellar, attic and workshop are packed in time.
- 04
Manoeuvrable vehicle on the slope
In Sax and on the edge of Frümsen, we use a small, manoeuvrable vehicle where access is narrow and clarify in advance where it can turn.
- 05Optional
Furniture lift if needed
If a sofa or wardrobe cannot be carried through the stairwell, we lift it outside with the furniture lift via the balcony or window.
- 06
Protection in the house
Floors, steps and lift car get padding and covers so that carrying leaves neither scratches nor dirt behind.
- 07
Assembly at the destination
Whether to Buchs, Altstätten or further into the Rhine valley: at the destination, our carpenters assemble beds and wardrobes and put the boxes in the right rooms.
- 08
Wrap-up and Werkhof tip
We dispose of bulky items properly; you drop off small quantities of recyclables at the Werkhof Frümsen, and afterwards we collect the boxes.
Moving to Sennwald
Registering after moving to Sennwald
Whether Sennwald, Frümsen, Sax, Haag or Salez: you can usually expect a 14-day deadline for registering with the Gemeinde (municipality). You can often submit it online via eUmzug (online change of address).
Set up mail forwarding while there are still at least 4 working days left until the move. You do not need to contact Serafe (radio/TV licence fee); the Einwohnerkontrolle (residents' registration office) forwards the address automatically.
New in Sennwald
New in Sennwald: low tax rate and five villages
Anyone moving to Sennwald pays a municipal tax rate of 70% in 2026. For comparison in 2026: Buchs 118%, Altstätten 107% and St. Gallen 138%. Sennwald is therefore lower than St. Gallen.
Parking on moving day
In Sax, Frümsen or Haag, we request a stopping point on public land if needed, free of charge for you and via the responsible office in Sennwald. The authority then sends you its own invoice for the reserved space.
Disposal and bulky waste
If bulky waste arises during your move in Sennwald, we load it too. Disposal costs CHF 65.– per m³, plus labour. Small quantities of recyclables are accepted by the Werkhof Frümsen at Rüteli 15.
Moving costs Sennwald
Sennwald: what a move between the Alpstein and the Rhine costs
Five villages, two landscapes: in Haag and Salez the routes are mostly level, while in Sennwald, Frümsen and Sax at the foot of the Alpstein the access can be steeper and narrower. The choice of vehicle and the carrying route, and therefore the working time, depend on this. Added to this are around 69 km as the crow flies from Wallisellen, which are also charged as the outward and return journey. The calculator above gives you an initial guide price.
| Apartment Size | Example price | Included |
|---|---|---|
| 1 – 1.5 rooms | from CHF 570.–Sennwald → Grabs, approx. 7 km | Furniture assembly, protective materials, insurance |
| 2 – 2.5 rooms | from CHF 880.–Sennwald → Buchs SG, approx. 9 km | Furniture assembly, protective materials, insurance |
| 3 – 3.5 rooms | from CHF 1'040.–Sennwald → Oberriet, approx. 11 km | Furniture assembly, protective materials, insurance |
| 4 – 4.5 rooms | from CHF 1'580.–Sennwald → Sevelen, approx. 14 km | Furniture assembly, protective materials, insurance |
| 5 – 5.5 rooms | from CHF 1'920.–Sennwald → Altstätten, approx. 16 km | Furniture assembly, protective materials, insurance |
| 6 – 6.5 rooms | from CHF 2'150.–Sennwald → Wartau, approx. 18 km | Furniture assembly, protective materials, insurance |
All prices include insurance and exclude 8.1% VAT. Guide values are based on average effort; the exact amount is determined during the free on-site survey and invoiced according to actual working time, including travel to and from the site.

Sennwald at a glance
Sennwald between the Alpstein and the Rhine
For us, Sennwald is not just a dot on the map but a real place of work with its own routes, access roads and neighbourhoods. The villages of Sennwald, Frümsen and Sax lie at the south-eastern foot of the Alpstein, Haag and Salez on the Rhine Valley plain. Motorway junctions in Haag and Sennwald (since 1967); Haag–Bendern Rhine bridge to Liechtenstein.
As a moving company for Sennwald, we also handle moves in the villages of Frümsen, Sax, Haag and Salez – with the same planning and the same guide prices. We also plan moves from Sennwald to a neighbouring municipality such as Buchs, Gams, Wildhaus-Alt St. Johann and Altstätten as a one-stop moving company. Sennwald belongs to the Werdenberg constituency in the canton of St. Gallen.

Getting to know Sennwald
Moving company Sennwald: five villages between the Alpstein and the Rhine
The municipality of Sennwald is divided between two landscapes. Sennwald, Frümsen and Sax lie at the south-eastern foot of the Alpstein, while Haag and Salez are on the Rhine valley plain. Across the Rhine, the municipality borders Ruggell and Gamprin in the Principality of Liechtenstein. Anyone moving here therefore quickly switches from the foot of the slope to the flat plain or vice versa.
Foot of the slope or valley plain
For furniture transport, this location makes a difference. In Haag and Salez the routes are mostly level, while at the foot of the Alpstein the access can be steeper and narrower. During the free survey, on site or via WhatsApp video, we therefore clarify:
- which vehicle can drive up to the house
- how long the carrying route is from the stopping point to the door
- whether a furniture lift makes sense for upper floors
Architecturally, Sax is considered one of the best-preserved farming villages in the Rhine valley, but it is poorly placed in terms of transport. In village centres like this, we fix the stopping point particularly early. Above Frümsen, the cable car starts its ascent to the Berggasthaus Staubern mountain inn at 1751 m.
Jobs in Haag and Sennwald
Haag and Sennwald have had motorway junctions since 1967, and the first Rhine bridge between Haag and Bendern was built as early as 1867. Today, internationally active companies are based here: the VAT Group in Haag is the municipality's largest employer, along with Sulzer Mixpac AG in Haag, Brusa Elektronik AG in Sennwald and Pyropac AG. In 2005 the municipality had 2895 jobs, around 57% of them in the secondary sector.
For businesses in this environment, our removal company handles office relocations outside working hours. Offices, stock and workstations are moved without production coming to a standstill.
Taxes, schools and living
The arrival of these companies has made Sennwald one of the lowest-tax municipalities in the canton of St. Gallen. In 2026, the Steuerfuss (municipal tax rate) of the political municipality is 70%, compared with 118% in Buchs and 107% in Altstätten. The municipality had 5592 inhabitants (as of 2018). Salez is home to the upper secondary school for all five villages and the Rheinhof agricultural school.
If you are moving here from the Zurich area, your move covers a longer distance: our base in Wallisellen is around 69 km away as the crow flies. At the new place, we take care of furniture assembly on request, so that beds and wardrobes are standing again quickly.
We are also the right choice within the region: as a removal company for Buchs, for a move to Altstätten or in Grabs, also in the Werdenberg constituency. Your movers in Sennwald prepare the quote within 24 hours, and we can schedule the date on a Saturday on request.
Questions about Sennwald
Do you carry out removals to all five villages of the municipality of Sennwald?
Yes. The municipality includes Sennwald, Frümsen and Sax at the foot of the Alpstein and Haag and Salez on the Rhine valley plain. For every address, we clarify access, stopping point and carrying route during the survey.
Do you handle business relocations in Haag?
Yes. The VAT Group and Sulzer Mixpac AG, among others, have their headquarters in Haag, and the municipality is strongly characterised by industrial companies. We plan business relocations so that they can take place outside your working hours.
Local moving logistics
Removals in Sennwald: from Haag and Salez to Sax and Frümsen
The five villages of the municipality of Sennwald are spread across the flat Rhine valley plain and the foot of the Alpstein. Around 69 km from Wallisellen, we therefore tailor the vehicle and stopping point to each village.
Haag and Salez on the Rhine plain
Haag has had its own motorway junction since 1967, and the Rhine bridge leads to Bendern in the Principality of Liechtenstein. For flats in the two valley villages, the removal van is on site quickly, and the focus is on a free stopping point right by the building.
Sax, the old farming village
Sax is considered one of the best-preserved farming villages in the Rhine valley, but it is poorly placed in terms of transport. Residents there benefit from a survey in advance, during which we check which vehicle can manage the access and how long the carrying route will be.
Frümsen below Staubern
The cable car to the Berggasthaus Staubern starts above Frümsen. For houses on the edge of the village towards the Alpstein, the access can become steeper, so we plan a manoeuvrable vehicle there and a furniture lift if needed.
Parking reservation
If the removal van has to stand on public land in one of the five villages, we take care of the parking reservation with the responsible office in Sennwald. The authority then bills the fee directly to you.
Disposal
Werkhof FrümsenThe municipality runs several collection points, including the one at the Werkhof Frümsen (municipal works yard) at Rüteli 15, where you can drop off small quantities of recyclables yourself. Furniture and bulky waste arising from the move we dispose of properly for CHF 65.– per m³.
B2B

Frequently asked questions
What you ask about moving in Sennwald
Who handles customs if I move from Haag across the Rhine bridge to Bendern or Ruggell?
Nobody needs to, because under the customs treaty Liechtenstein is part of the Swiss customs territory. No duties are levied at the border, and the route depends only on access and the stopping point. What remains to be done is deregistering in Sennwald, registering in the Principality and, if applicable, the vehicle inspection with the Liechtensteinische Landesverwaltung (national administration).
How does a move from Sennwald up to Wildhaus in the Toggenburg work?
With a drive over the old route from Haag to Wildhaus, which gains considerable altitude. We also survey the destination address, because access roads in the mountain village can be steeper and more winding than in the Rhine valley. We then choose the vehicle and team size so that moving out and moving in can be done on the same day.
How do you move within the municipality from Haag on the plain to Frümsen at the foot of the Alpstein?
We go by the more difficult address: in Haag, loading is easy, while on the edge of Frümsen the access can be narrow and steep. If only a smaller vehicle fits there, we would rather drive the short distance twice than park far from the house and accept long carrying routes.
Where does furniture from Sennwald stay if I can only move in later?
It is kept in our warehouse, which is dry, climate-controlled and protected by an alarm. On moving-out day, we collect your household goods in one of the five villages, store them and bring them to the new address as soon as you can move in. Our carpenters then reassemble the furniture directly on site.
What do you pay attention to when moving out of an old farmhouse in Sax?
The inside of the house: in historic farmhouses, stairs can be steep, doors low and corridors winding. Our carpenters therefore dismantle large furniture in the rooms themselves, and we carefully pad wooden floors and stairs. If a piece cannot be carried out, we lift it through a window with the furniture lift.
When do you clean the old flat in Sennwald if I have already moved away?
After you move out and in good time before the handover appointment you arrange with the property management. Our team attends the inspection and fixes any complaints immediately, at no extra cost. If you have someone represent you, you do not need to travel back to the Rhine valley specially for the handover.
What should I take in my own car on moving day in Sennwald?
ID documents, contracts, jewellery, cash and medication belong in your own vehicle, as do chargers and keys. We load everything else securely. It is best to leave pets with friends for the day so that doors can stay open and no animal slips outside.
