If the lorry has to stand on the street, we submit the application to the responsible office in Amriswil; you receive the fee directly from the authority.

We drop off boxes and packing materials free of charge two or three weeks before the date; label each box with its destination room in the new flat.

Moving Costs Amriswil
How the price of removals in Amriswil is made up
To reach Amriswil we drive around 55 km as the crow flies from Wallisellen, and travel to and from counts as actual working time, which is what we bill. That is why it pays to bring materials and tools on the very first trip. Access and vehicle size change depending on whether the address is in the centre between the market square and the station or in Schocherswil, Hagenwil or Oberaach. Request the free survey to find out.

Amriswil at a glance
Amriswil in brief: an Oberthurgau town with five villages
For us, Amriswil is not just a dot on the map but a real place of work with its own routes, access roads and neighbourhoods. Amriswil lies in Upper Thurgau at the junction of the Winterthur–Arbon and Konstanz–St. Gallen roads. Amriswil has a station on the Winterthur–Romanshorn line, which is a stop for the Romanshorn–Zurich InterCity trains.
As a moving company for Amriswil, we also handle moves in the districts of Biessenhofen, Oberaach, Räuchlisberg, Schocherswil and Hagenwil – with the same planning and the same guide prices. Amriswil belongs to the district of Arbon in the canton of Thurgau.

Getting to know Amriswil
Moving company Amriswil: the Thurgau town and its villages
Since 1 January 2005, Amriswil has officially counted as a town for statistical purposes. On 31 December 2023, 14,546 people lived here, 12,837 of them in the village of Amriswil itself. As a moving company in Amriswil, we know not only the centre but also the smaller villages of the municipality.
Five villages, different routes
The municipality was formed through several mergers, most recently with Schocherswil in 1997. The population figures from 2000 show how different in size the parts are:
- Amriswil: 9769 inhabitants
- Oberaach/Biessenhofen: 853 inhabitants
- Schrofen: 387 inhabitants
- Schocherswil: 336 inhabitants
- Hagenwil/Räuchlisberg: 242 inhabitants
Whether it is a flat in the centre or an address in one of the small villages, the access road decides whether we arrive with one large or two smaller vehicles. We clarify this in advance for every address.
Around 55 km to the job
From our base in Wallisellen, Amriswil is around 55 km away as the crow flies. That is why we plan especially carefully here: materials, boxes and tools for furniture assembly come along on the first trip, so that no second journey is needed. For larger households it is worth spreading packing and transport over two consecutive days.
From knitwear hub to mixed trades
The town was first mentioned in 799 as Amalgeriswilare, "at the farmstead of Amalger". Until around 1830 Amriswil was a farming village; after the Nordostbahn railway opened in 1855, a new residential area grew between the market square and the station.
With firms such as Sallmann, Laib and Tuchschmid, Amriswil became a centre of knitwear manufacturing in the 19th century; Esco and Löw stood for clothing and shoes. Today the structure is more balanced: in 2016 the municipality had 4661 full-time jobs, 35.5% of them in industry, trades and construction and 61.2% in the service sector.
For business relocations this means a wide range, from workshop inventory to offices. An office relocation can be done outside working hours, so that customers and production hardly notice a thing.
Landmarks for furniture transport
In the middle of town rises the 75-metre tower of the Reformed church, the tallest church tower in Thurgau. The Gemeindehaus (town hall) and the village square form a single ensemble, and the five-sided "Pentorama" from 2007 is regarded as the new landmark. Around central squares like these, we agree the parking space and carrying route before moving day.
Amriswil belongs to the district of Arbon and lies on the Winterthur–Romanshorn railway line. Many moves therefore lead into the neighbourhood: as movers for Arbon in the same district, or for a move in Romanshorn at the end of the line. Your removals team in Amriswil plans each of these trips individually and with a fixed procedure.
Questions about Amriswil
Do you also move households to Schrofen and the smaller hamlets?
Yes. Besides Amriswil, Oberaach, Biessenhofen, Hagenwil, Räuchlisberg and Schocherswil, Schrofen is also part of the municipality. For houses outside the centre we check the access for our vehicles in advance.
How do you organise a move around 55 km from your base?
Amriswil is around 55 km as the crow flies from our base in Wallisellen. We therefore load all materials and tools in advance and, if needed, plan larger moves over two days.
Local moving logistics
Moving in Amriswil: from the station quarter to Hagenwil
Amriswil combines an urban centre with several rural villages. For logistics this means that access, parking space and carrying route differ in each part of the municipality, and that is exactly what we check before moving day.
Centre between market square and station
The town's new centre grew between the market square and the station after the Nordostbahn opened in 1855. Here the main task is to park the removal lorry close to the entrance without blocking driveways, pavements or traffic to the station.
Oberaach and Biessenhofen
Together, Oberaach and Biessenhofen form the largest part of the municipality outside the village of Amriswil. For detached houses with a garden or yard entrance, we check whether the lorry can stand on private ground and how far items need to be carried.
Hagenwil, Räuchlisberg and Almensberg
In these small villages the municipality only collects green waste after telephone notice, which shows their rural character. We therefore check narrow access roads to farms and individual houses in advance, so that the right vehicle size is planned.
Schocherswil and Schrofen
Schocherswil only joined the municipality in 1997, and Schrofen has just a few hundred inhabitants. If you are moving from there to the centre or vice versa, a survey by WhatsApp video lets us see carrying routes and stairs in advance.
Parking reservation
If the removal lorry has to stand on a public road or in a parking bay, we apply for the parking reservation at the responsible office in Amriswil. The authority's fee is passed on to you directly; we take care of the organisation.
Disposal
Muldenzentrale OTG AG, Recyclinghof, Buchenhölzlistrasse 6You can drop off smaller quantities of recyclables yourself at the Recyclinghof of Muldenzentrale OTG AG at Buchenhölzlistrasse 6. Furniture and bulky items left over when you move out, we take away and dispose of properly for CHF 65.– per m³.
B2B
Office relocations in Amriswil
A good third of jobs in Amriswil are in industry, trades and construction, and most of the rest in services. For workshops and offices alike we plan the relocation outside working hours, with files moved as an archive relocation on request.

Frequently asked questions
Questions about moving in Amriswil and its villages
Who helps older people in Amriswil move to a smaller flat?
For a seniors' move, our team takes care of packing, transport and furniture assembly. Together with relatives, we decide in advance what fits into the new flat; we store or dispose of anything surplus. On request we clean the previous flat and attend the handover.
How do you move to an address on the Konstanz–St. Gallen through road in Amriswil?
First, at the survey, we look for a spot in a side street or on a yard so that the lorry does not stand at the edge of the main road. If that is not possible, we apply for the parking space at the town's responsible office and plan a larger team so that loading stays short and traffic keeps flowing.
How does a move between Mühlebach and Hemmerswil work?
Both districts joined the local municipality of Amriswil back in 1925 and 1932, so this is a move within the town. The same team loads in the morning, drives straight on and sets up the furniture again in the afternoon. We look at the access and stairs of both houses beforehand so that the vehicle size is right.
Where do you park the removal lorry at farms in Obermühle or Spitzenrüti?
If you as the owner agree, we park the lorry in the farmyard or on the private driveway; no reservation on public ground is then needed. If the path to the house is narrow or unpaved, we use a smaller vehicle, carry the last few metres by hand and cover the entrance and floorboards with floor protection.
Where does my furniture go if the new flat in Oberaach only becomes free later?
Into our furniture storage: it is dry, climate-controlled and alarm-protected, and your furniture can stay there for as long as necessary. On moving-out day we load up in Amriswil, and on the moving-in date we deliver from storage straight to the new flat and reassemble everything. We state the storage price in the quote.
Why does a Saturday move suit commuters from Amriswil station?
Because with us a Saturday costs the same as a weekday. If you commute to Zurich or Romanshorn by Intercity during the week, you do not have to sacrifice a day of holiday. We load on Saturday morning, set up by the evening, and on Monday you are back on the train, just with a new address.
What does it cost to bring a piano along to Amriswil?
Piano transport starts at CHF 250.–; the exact amount depends on the instrument, floor and carrying route. We secure the piano for the journey, protect the stairwell and floors and place it where you want it at the new home. At the survey we measure stairs and door widths precisely.
What do you pay attention to for flats around the village square and Pentorama?
Finding a spot that keeps access to the town hall, shops and events clear. So before moving day we clarify which side of the building the lorry can stand on, and carry a few metres further if needed. In blocks of flats we protect the lift and stairwell before the first piece of furniture goes out.
