    Herrliberg between the lakeshore and Wetzwil: your move in 8 steps

    On the Gold Coast, Seestrasse and the hamlet of Wetzwil are far apart. These eight steps take both altitudes into account, as well as the short distances to the neighbours.

    1. 01

      Viewing down below and up above

      Whether a lakeside flat or a house above the village: we look at access, stairs and the amount of furniture and then prepare a quote with all additional services.

    2. 02

      Loading area on Seestrasse

      Where the van has to stop on public land, we organise the reservation so that traffic along the shore keeps flowing; the authority charges the fee.

    3. 03

      Boxes for the whole house

      About two to three weeks beforehand you receive free moving boxes and packing material, so that cellar, garage and living spaces can be packed step by step.

    4. 04

      Protecting parquet and steps

      Before carrying, we lay floor protection on parquet and natural stone and pad the stairwell and lift, so that both houses remain free of marks.

    5. 05Optional

      Furniture lift instead of narrow stairs

      If the flat is above Seestrasse and the stairwell is narrow, the furniture lift is used to bring the sofa or wardrobe directly onto the terrace or balcony.

    6. 06

      Along the Gold Coast

      To Erlenbach, Meilen or Küsnacht the distance stays short; for destinations further away we plan the drive so that the unloading space is free in time.

    7. 07Optional

      Dropping off small quantities yourself

      Glass, aluminium and small quantities are easiest to take to the staffed Sammelstelle Rotholz (collection point) in Meilen; whole pieces of furniture we take away for proper disposal.

    8. 08

      Assembly and handover

      Carpenters from our team put wardrobes and beds back together; afterwards you check with us that every piece is in the right place.

    Moving to Herrliberg

    Registering in Herrliberg: 14 days, eUmzug and mail forwarding

    The canton of Zurich requires you to register with your new municipality within 14 days, in many places online via eUmzug. The municipality of Herrliberg states the same legal deadline of 14 days on its website.

    Swiss Post needs your forwarding order at least 4 working days before the move. Writing to Serafe (radio/TV licence fee) is unnecessary: your new Herrliberg address reaches them automatically via the Einwohnerkontrolle (residents' registration office).

    Herrliberg as your new home: facts for starting out on the right shore of the lake

    Anyone moving to Herrliberg pays a total tax rate excluding church tax of 73 % in 2026. For comparison in 2026: Erlenbach 76 % and Zurich 119 %. Herrliberg is therefore lower than Zurich. In Herrliberg, those entitled to vote decide at the municipal assembly.

    Parking on moving day

    On Seestrasse, traffic should keep flowing despite the removal van. We have the stopping place reserved for you free of charge by the responsible office in Herrliberg; the authority then invoices you directly for the fee.

    Disposal and bulky waste

    We take old furniture and bulky waste during the move for CHF 65.– per m³, with labour charged separately. Herrliberg residents can take smaller quantities to the staffed Sammelstelle Rotholz, Meilen, themselves.

    With our moving service, you don't need to: we take it away directly during the move – CHF 65.– per m³ plus labour. View disposal

    Moving Costs Herrliberg

    Herrliberg on the Gold Coast: removal costs between the lake and Wetzwil

    From Wallisellen to Herrliberg it is around 13 km as the crow flies, and we count travel there and back as actual working time. Altitude makes the difference: down on Seestrasse and near the S6 and S16 stops, a reserved stopping place matters, while up in the hamlet of Wetzwil or towards the Pflugstein at 560 m above sea level we check access and vehicle size. There is no surcharge for Saturdays. The calculator above gives a first estimate.

        Herrliberg on the Gold Coast: from the shore to the heights

        If you are moving in Herrliberg, you benefit from a moving company that takes a close look at the town and its surroundings before moving day. Herrliberg lies on the lower right shore of Lake Zurich – the so-called Gold Coast – in the district of Meilen. Herrliberg-Feldmeilen station (S6, S16) is just outside the municipal boundary in Meilen; scheduled boats of the Lake Zurich Navigation Company also call here.

        Our moving service covers all of Herrliberg, including Wetzwil. Herrliberg borders Erlenbach; we organise moves across municipal boundaries with one team and one quote. Herrliberg belongs to the district of Meilen in the canton of Zurich.

        Getting to know Herrliberg

        Moving company Herrliberg: between the Raben-Haab and the Pflugstein

        Herrliberg is surprisingly rural: of its 897 hectares, 56 % are used for agriculture and 24 % are forest, while only 16 % are built-up area. Besides the village on the lake, the municipality includes the elevated hamlet of Wetzwil. 6,391 people lived here in 2018, and from our base in Wallisellen it is around 13 km as the crow flies.

        Wetzwil and the canton's largest erratic boulder

        Above the village, at 560 m above sea level, lies the Pflugstein, with around 1000 cubic metres of visible rock the largest erratic boulder in the canton of Zurich. The Linth glacier carried it here from the Glarus Alps during the last ice age. The boundary with Erlenbach runs between the stone and the restaurant of the same name.

        Wetzwil is home to the Reformed church, dedicated to St Bartholomew in the Middle Ages, with wall paintings from the 15th century. There is also the Catholic church of St. Marien from 1956, built in the style of French concrete Gothic. If you live in Wetzwil or at another higher address, you should not leave access to chance. As your moving company in Herrliberg, we check during the free viewing which vehicle size fits and how long the carrying distance will be.

        On the shore: train, boat and harbour

        Down by the lake, the right-bank Lake Zurich railway with the S6 and S16 lines runs through the municipality, every 15 minutes during the day. Scheduled boats call at the Raben-Haab, around every two hours in summer. Zurich main station is 13 kilometres away. For your move this means:

        • You can schedule moving day on a Saturday if you commute to Zurich during the week. We do not charge a Saturday surcharge.
        • On Seestrasse and around the stops, we fix the stopping place in advance and organise a parking reservation if needed.
        • For heavy items on upper floors, we check whether a furniture lift makes sense.

        Along the Gold Coast into the neighbourhood

        Herrliberg lies on the lower right shore of Lake Zurich, the so-called Goldküste (Gold Coast). In 2026 the total Steuerfuss (municipal tax rate) excluding church tax is 73 %, compared with 76 % in Erlenbach and 119 % in Zurich. For moves along this stretch of the lake, distances stay short.

        We are also your removal company for Erlenbach, plan a move to Meilen, where Herrliberg-Feldmeilen station lies just across the boundary, or a move to Küsnacht in the same district. You can add end-of-tenancy cleaning, disposal and furniture assembly on request. Your movers in Herrliberg get back to you with the quote within 24 hours.

        Questions about Herrliberg

        Is a move up to the hamlet of Wetzwil possible?
        Yes. Wetzwil belongs to the municipality of Herrliberg and lies high above the lake. We clarify access, the stopping place and vehicle size before the date, so that the move up there works without detours.

        Do you handle removals between Herrliberg and Feldmeilen?
        Yes. Feldmeilen belongs to the neighbouring municipality of Meilen, and Herrliberg-Feldmeilen station lies just outside the Herrliberg municipal boundary. For such a move we plan both addresses in one quote.

        Local moving logistics

        Moving in Herrliberg: Seestrasse, Humrigen and Wetzwil

        Herrliberg stretches from the shore on the Gold Coast up to the Pflugstein at 560 metres. Between Seestrasse and the hamlet of Wetzwil, access, stopping place and carrying distance change considerably.

        Wetzwil high above the lake

        The hamlet of Wetzwil with its medieval church lies considerably higher than the village on the shore. If you move from there down to the lake or the other way round, you get a plan with two different access routes, stopping places and, if necessary, a furniture lift.

        Seestrasse and the shore

        Along the shore, Seestrasse and the right-bank Lake Zurich railway run through the municipality. For addresses near the lake we position the loading area so that traffic keeps flowing and check whether a furniture lift shortens the route over stairs.

        Siedlung Humrigen

        One of the municipality's collection points is at the Siedlung Humrigen car park by the cemetery. If you live in this part of Herrliberg, we arrange the removal van's stopping place so that the car park and containers remain accessible.

        Parking reservation

        For a stopping place on public land, for example on Seestrasse, we submit the reservation to the responsible office in Herrliberg. The authority's fee goes directly to you, and we take care of the application and the date.

        Disposal

        Sammelstelle Rotholz, Meilen

        You can drop glass and aluminium at the collection points by the post office car park or at the Siedlung Humrigen; Herrliberg residents can also use the staffed Sammelstelle Rotholz, Meilen. We take care of furniture and bulky waste and dispose of it properly for CHF 65.– per m³.

        Frequently asked questions

        Moving in Herrliberg: your questions, our answers

        Who packs paintings, sculptures and antiques for a move in Herrliberg?

        Our team does this with its own protective material. Pictures are padded and transported upright, antiques are additionally protected at edges and feet and secured individually in the van. We discuss anything particularly delicate during the viewing, so that enough material is ready on moving day.

        How does a grand piano get safely from a house in Wetzwil down to the lake?

        As a piano transport from CHF 250.–; the exact price depends on weight, stairs and access. We pad the instrument, carry it with suitable equipment and secure it in the vehicle. If the stairwell is too narrow, we consider a furniture lift.

        How do you organise moving out of the Siedlung Humrigen in Herrliberg?

        We clarify in advance which building entrance belongs to your flat and park the van as close as possible to exactly that entrance. Let the caretaker and neighbours know the date, and the lift and stairwell will stay free for the team. We pad the lift walls and steps before the first piece of furniture goes out.

        When does a move up to Wetzwil become more demanding in winter?

        As soon as there is snow or ice on the climbing roads and the path from the van to the front door is slippery. We keep an eye on the weather before the date, plan more time for carrying and give entrances extra protection from wet. With a cost ceiling, the amount still stays limited.

        When is a cost ceiling worthwhile for a large house on the Gold Coast?

        With a lot of household goods, a garage, cellar and garden furniture, a cost ceiling gives you a fixed maximum amount. We set it once we have seen the volume and distances during the viewing; a flat rate is also possible. Without such an agreement, the actual working time applies, with a minimum of three hours.

        What should we set aside ourselves before moving day in Herrliberg?

        Most important are documents, jewellery, medication and keys, which are best transported yourself. Also mark furniture that is not coming along and label boxes by room. That way the team knows immediately at the new address where every item belongs.

        Which furniture can be stored temporarily during a renovation in Herrliberg?

        In principle all of your household goods, from the sofa to the stack of boxes. Our furniture warehouse is dry, climate-controlled and alarm-protected, and billing is by volume and month. After the renovation we deliver everything back to Herrliberg and have our carpenters reassemble the furniture.

        What should I watch out for if the house is directly on Seestrasse in Herrliberg?

        That the van stops on the same side of the road as the building entrance, so that nobody has to cross Seestrasse carrying furniture. We explicitly request this side when making the reservation. One team member watches out for cyclists and pedestrians on the pavement during loading and unloading.
