Romanshorn on Lake Constance: your move in 8 steps between harbour and hinterland
A rail hub, a ferry port and a densely built lakeshore shape Romanshorn; that is why we agree the parking spot, vehicle and schedule firmly before moving day.
- 01
Quote after a walk-through
By video or on site, we look at rooms, stairwell and access; you then receive a written quote with team size and vehicle.
- 02
Secure a space near the station
There is a lot going on between the ferry port and the tracks, so we apply early for the parking space with the office responsible for Romanshorn; the authority invoices you for the fee.
- 03
Multi-storey on the lakeshore
In the urban buildings along the shore, we measure the lift and stairwell and decide whether a furniture lift will get the sofa and wardrobes out more easily.
- 04
Prepare a winter date
If the move falls in the frosty season, we look at the house entrance and carrying route in advance and lay floor protection right into the entrance.
- 05
Drive to the new address
Your household goods travel directly to the new address, whether within Romanshorn, to Arbon, Egnach or further towards Kreuzlingen.
- 06Optional
Offices and labs
For businesses in pharma, chemicals or mechanical engineering, we relocate workstations, IT and labs outside operating hours, and files as an archive relocation on request.
- 07
Assembly in your new home
At the destination, we carry furniture and boxes into the right rooms and reassemble dismantled wardrobes and beds.
- 08
Final check and box collection
A joint walk-through completes the move; we collect the empty boxes from you later and invoice exactly what was quoted.

Moving costs Romanshorn
Moving to Romanshorn: what the costs on Lake Constance depend on
From Wallisellen to Lake Constance it is around 60 km as the crow flies, and with us the journey there and back counts as working time. So this distance is part of every invoice. On site, it is mainly the parking space and carrying route that determine the effort, for example around the harbour and station. With around 76 frost days a year, we check the access in advance for a winter move. The calculator above gives a guide price, and a cost ceiling is available on request.

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.

Getting to know Romanshorn
Moving Company Romanshorn: from fishing village to port town
Romanshorn was once a fishing village. Only when the canton of Thurgau built a harbour between 1840 and 1844 and the mail coach routes to Swabia began to run via Romanshorn did the town start to grow. In 1855 the Zurich–Romanshorn railway line was added, later the lines to Rorschach, Konstanz and, with the Bodensee-Toggenburg-Bahn, to St. Gallen.
Trains in four directions, a ferry across the lake
Today trains leave the station in four directions, a car ferry connects Romanshorn with Friedrichshafen, and from 1869 to 1976 there was already a train ferry service to Lindau. Around the harbour and station, we clarify the parking space for the removal van in advance. After 1945 Romanshorn also developed into a residential community. For households who work elsewhere during the week, a moving day on a Saturday is practical. We also carry out moves on Saturdays, with no Saturday surcharge.
Romanshorn had 11,945 inhabitants (as of 2024). As movers in Romanshorn, we come from Wallisellen, around 60 km away as the crow flies. The free viewing is possible on site or via WhatsApp video.
Industry, pharma and logistics
The favourable location by the harbour and railway attracted trade and industry after 1850. Today Romanshorn is an industrial town with a broad mix, with around 5000 jobs in around 600 businesses. Well-known names include:
- Fatzer, active in wire rope production since 1895
- Max Zeller Söhne, which grew out of the pharmacy behind Zellerbalsam
- Voigt, founded in 1904, distributing pharmaceutical products
- Biro, Hydrel and Asco Kohlensäure AG
For companies in industry, pharma and services, our removals company handles business relocations outside operating hours. We dismantle office furniture and reassemble it at the new site, and furniture that is no longer needed goes for disposal.
Cantonal school, forest and lake water
Romanshorn has had a Kantonsschule (upper secondary school) since 1969, and in the hinterland lies a large forest that received the national Binding Prize for exemplary forest management. In 1883 Romanshorn was the first municipality on Lake Constance to decide to draw its drinking water from the lake.
On average, around 76 frost days a year can be expected here. A winter move is therefore a question of preparation: we look at entrances and carrying routes in advance.
Romanshorn borders Uttwil, Hefenhofen and Salmsach. Via the lakeside railway line and the road, the other places on the lake are also close: we equally support you with a move to Egnach, as movers for Arbon or towards Konstanz with the moving company in Kreuzlingen. Your moving company in Romanshorn prepares the quote within 24 hours.
Questions about Romanshorn
Do you handle business relocations in Romanshorn?
Yes. Romanshorn is an industrial town with around 600 businesses in sectors such as plastics, mechanical engineering, chemicals and pharma. We plan business relocations so that they can take place outside your operating hours, including furniture assembly at the new site.
Do you also move households from Romanshorn to other places on the lakeside line?
Yes. The lakeside line (Seelinie) connects Romanshorn with Rorschach and Kreuzlingen, with places such as Egnach and Arbon in between. We plan moves along the lake with a viewing and a quote within 24 hours.
Local moving logistics
Removals in Romanshorn between harbour, station and lakeshore
Romanshorn has grown around its harbour and rail hub into an urbanised village on Lake Constance. From Wallisellen it is around 60 km, so we fix the parking space and schedule firmly before moving day.
Around the harbour and station
The harbour and station have formed the core since the 19th century, and the lines to Zurich, Konstanz, Rorschach and St. Gallen converge here. In this busy area we reserve the space for the removal van early so that loading and unloading work without waiting.
Dense centre on the lakeshore
On the southern shore of Lake Constance, the former fishing village has become an urban municipality. In multi-storey buildings we clarify the lift, stairwell and carrying route during the viewing and decide whether a furniture lift saves time.
Parking reservation
For a parking space directly in front of the house, we organise the parking reservation with the responsible office in Romanshorn. The authority invoices you itself for the reserved space.
Disposal
Glass, cans and other small quantities are easiest to take to your municipality's collection point; the town of Romanshorn provides information on the locations. We dispose of old furniture and bulky household goods properly during the move for CHF 65.– per m³.
B2B

Frequently asked questions
Romanshorn: common questions about moving day
Who supports a senior's move from a detached house to a flat in Romanshorn?
Our team plans the move together with you and your relatives: during the on-site viewing we decide which furniture comes along, and then we take care of packing, transport, assembly and disposal of anything surplus. On request, we clean the house for the handover.
How do you organise a move from Romanshorn to Uttwil or Salmsach?
It is a short move across the municipal boundary, but legally a change of residence: the municipality at the new address is responsible for a parking space there, and we submit the application for you. The same team loads in Romanshorn in the morning, drives straight on and assembles the furniture, so you sleep in your new flat that evening.
How do you plan a move at the harbour while trains and ferries are running?
Around the harbour and station, travellers, cars and buses all meet, so the van arrives at the agreed time with the full team and is loaded without interruption. We do not put furniture and boxes on the pavement beforehand but carry them directly into the van. This keeps the footpath clear and the parking space is quickly vacated again.
Where do you keep furniture if the flat on Lake Constance is not yet ready to move into?
They stay in our furniture store, which is alarm-protected, dry and climate-controlled. We take over the furniture on moving-out day, store it for as long as necessary and deliver it for moving in to Romanshorn or any other address. Costs depend on volume and duration.
When do I have to expect follow-up work at the flat handover in Romanshorn?
Not at all, if you have booked our final cleaning with handover guarantee. Our team attends the handover and deals with any complaints from the property management immediately and free of charge, so the inspection is completed at the same appointment.
What applies when moving from Romanshorn to the German shore of Lake Constance, e.g. Friedrichshafen?
It is an international move with customs clearance: we draw up the inventory list with you and handle the export at the Swiss customs office and the import into Germany. We clarify which additional documents the German authorities require before the quote. We choose the route by land or lake so that your household goods arrive safely and insured.
Why is it worth thinking about a winter date in Romanshorn?
Because Romanshorn has dozens of frost days a year on average, and wet paths by the lake quickly become slippery. Shortly before the date we talk to you about entrances and outdoor steps, lay floor protection up to the front door and plan a little more time. We load sensitive plants and electronics last so they do not stand in the cold for long.
