Moving Company Gebenstorf – removals for private customers and businesses

About one kilometre north of the village centre, the Reuss flows into the Aare, and a further kilometre away the Limmat joins it. Gebenstorf lies right in the middle of the so-called Wasserschloss (water castle) of Switzerland, and here the water determines how the parts of the village are spread out. For a removal it is therefore worth pinpointing your own address precisely. Our base in Wallisellen is around 27 km away as the crow flies.

Four locations, four starting points

• Old village centre: on a terrace between the east bank of the Reuss and the west slope of the Gebenstorfer Horn
• Reuss: a young district in the river bend that has grown together with Gebenstorf
• Vogelsang: on a peninsula 900 metres long and 300 metres wide between the Aare and the Limmat
• Schwabenberg and Petersberg: two hill farms up on the Gebenstorfer Horn

Between the lowest point at the confluence of the Aare and Limmat (328 m above sea level) and the Chörnlisberg (561 m) there are more than 230 metres of altitude difference. Moving to the hill farms or onto the slope of the Horn involves different routes from moving within the river bend. As your movers in Gebenstorf, we therefore clarify access, vehicle size and carrying route during the free survey.

From industrial village to commuter municipality

In Vogelsang, an artificial power station canal cuts through the peninsula; it once supplied energy for a cotton spinning mill. In the 19th century numerous industrial businesses settled there in particular. Turgi also belonged to Gebenstorf until 1884, before it split off as a workers' settlement. From 1950, thanks to its location between Brugg and Baden, Gebenstorf became a sought-after place to live, and the population doubled within fifty years. At the end of 2025 it stood at 5,840.

For commuter households we schedule the move on a Saturday on request, with no Saturday surcharge. We relocate businesses in Vogelsang outside operating hours.

Traces of history in the village

The Roman road from Vindonissa to Aquae Helveticae, today's Baden, already ran through the municipal area. Later, Gebenstorf remained one of the few denominationally mixed municipalities of the County of Baden; in the jointly used church of St. Margaretha, Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi and Anna Schulthess married in September 1769. Only in 1889 and 1891 did both denominations get their own churches. The bunkers and tank barriers of the Sperrstelle Gebenstorf (defensive position) between the Bruggerberg and the Gebenstorfer Horn date from the Second World War, and most of them still exist.

Gebenstorf has no railway station of its own; a bus line runs to Baden station. In return, you are quickly connected with the neighbours. We handle your move to Baden, are the removal firm for Windisch on the other side of the Reuss and organise furniture transport to Untersiggenthal to the north. Your moving company in Gebenstorf is also there for Brugg, with furniture assembly, final cleaning and disposal on request.

Questions about Gebenstorf

Do you also move to Vogelsang and the Reuss district?
Yes. Vogelsang lies on the peninsula between the Aare and Limmat, the Reuss district in the bend of the river Reuss. Both belong to Gebenstorf, and we clarify the parking spot and carrying route for each address during the survey.

Do you handle removals to the hill farms of Schwabenberg and Petersberg?
Yes. The two hill farms lie on the Gebenstorfer Horn, an elevation of the Tabular Jura. For addresses like these we check access and vehicle size in advance, so that the move on the slope runs smoothly.
