Hinwil in 6 steps – from the village hill to the Bachtel slope
A shop in the centre, a farmhouse in Hadlikon or a flat in Ringwil: this is how a move in Hinwil runs, tailored to gradient, access and building.
- 01
Survey and offer
We look at your flat, access and gradient free of charge, by video if you like, and send you an offer covering all services within 24 hours.
- 02
Reserving the loading point
In the centre we choose the loading point so that customers and driveways stay clear; we apply for any permits at the responsible office in Hinwil.
- 03
Vehicle for the slope
For Girenbad, Wernetshausen or Bossikon we use a manoeuvrable vehicle if the large lorry cannot manage the steep access road.

We cover thresholds, wooden floors and stairs in old farmhouses; if needed, we lift heavy pieces to the upper floor with the furniture lift.
- 05
Furnishing at the destination
Whether in Wetzikon, Dürnten or Bäretswil, our carpenters assemble your furniture and every box ends up in its labelled room.

Moving to Hinwil
Changing your address in Hinwil under Zurich rules
Zurich municipalities such as Hinwil require you to register within 14 days of arrival. As in many places in the canton of Zurich, the online route via eUmzug (online change of address) is available for this.
Swiss Post needs at least 4 working days' notice before the move for mail forwarding. Serafe (radio/TV licence fee) receives your new address automatically via the Einwohnerkontrolle (residents' registration office); you do not need to report anything there yourself.
New in Hinwil
New to Hinwil: municipality, taxes, waste disposal
For 2026, the total tax rate in Hinwil, excluding church tax, is 116 %. For comparison in 2026: Zurich 119 %. Hinwil is therefore lower than Zurich.
Parking on moving day
If the lorry has to stand in the municipal centre or on a municipal road, we submit the application to the responsible office in Hinwil; this reservation is free of charge with us. The authority then sends the fee to you.
Disposal and bulky waste
We load discarded furniture and bulky items from Hinwil after you move out and send them for proper disposal, at CHF 65.– per m³ plus labour. Smaller quantities you take to the municipality yourself.
Moving costs Hinwil
How much does a move in Hinwil below the Bachtel cost?
Hinwil is around 23 km as the crow flies from Wallisellen; we count travel to and from as working time, and the A15 runs as far as the Betzholz roundabout in the south of the municipality. Within Hinwil, the location affects the effort: the village centre needs different planning from an address on the Bachtel slope or in hamlets such as Girenbad, Ringwil or Wernetshausen. For businesses in the industrial quarter we plan outside working hours. The quote follows within 24 hours.
| Apartment Size | Example price | Included |
|---|---|---|
| 1 – 1.5 rooms | from CHF 560.–Hinwil → Dürnten, approx. 3 km | Furniture assembly, protective materials, insurance |
| 2 – 2.5 rooms | from CHF 870.–Hinwil → Bäretswil, approx. 4 km | Furniture assembly, protective materials, insurance |
| 3 – 3.5 rooms | from CHF 1'010.–Hinwil → Bubikon, approx. 4 km | Furniture assembly, protective materials, insurance |
| 4 – 4.5 rooms | from CHF 1'520.–Hinwil → Wetzikon, approx. 4 km | Furniture assembly, protective materials, insurance |
| 5 – 5.5 rooms | from CHF 1'830.–Hinwil → Rüti, approx. 5 km | Furniture assembly, protective materials, insurance |
| 6 – 6.5 rooms | from CHF 2'050.–Hinwil → Wald, approx. 6 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.

Getting to know Hinwil
Moving company Hinwil: district capital on the western side of the Bachtel
The Bachtel, at 1115 metres above sea level, towers over Hinwil; the municipality lies on its western slope, oriented with the Wildbach stream towards the Pfäffikersee. With 22.28 km² and 11,755 inhabitants (as of 2022) in 5093 households, Hinwil is one of the larger municipalities in the canton. For a moving company in Hinwil based in Wallisellen, it is around 23 km as the crow flies, and the S14 even links the two places directly.
Six outlying hamlets with their own coats of arms
Hinwil includes the Aussenwachten (outlying hamlets) of Girenbad, Hadlikon, Ringwil, Unterbach, Unterholz and Wernetshausen, as well as the hamlets of Bossikon and Erlosen. Some were once independent municipalities, and most still have a coat of arms today. Hadlikon is mentioned as early as 775, Ringwil in 837 and Wernetshausen in 867.
The traces in the village go back even further: in 1968, wall remains of a Roman villa with a hypocaust were uncovered in the Reformed church. In the 18th century, cottage industry shaped the place; in 1776, 60% of the population worked in cotton processing. The local museum has recorded this history since 1925.
Depending on the hamlet and position on the Bachtel slope, access looks quite different from the village centre. During the free survey we therefore check:
- gradient and width of the access road, to choose the right vehicle size
- parking space and carrying route, especially for older farmhouses and residential buildings
- whether a furniture lift will take the strain off the stairwell and removal crew
Industrial quarter with a Formula 1 team
Hinwil's industrial quarter is home base to the Audi Revolut F1 Team, formerly Sauber Motorsport. Add to that companies such as Belimo, Ferag and FBB, several large shopping centres, the Kehrichtverwertung Zürcher Oberland (waste-to-energy plant), a test centre of the Strassenverkehrsamt (road traffic office) and the Armeelogistikcenter Hinwil (army logistics centre). For businesses, our removals company plans office relocations outside working hours, with furniture assembly, disposal and furniture storage on request.
At the end of the Oberland motorway
The Oberland motorway A15 currently ends at the Betzholz roundabout in the south of the municipality, where the Forch expressway A52 also joins. That makes access with the removal lorry convenient. Hinwil has had a railway station since 1876, and since 1978 the heritage railway of the Dampfbahn-Verein Zürcher Oberland has run on the old line to Bäretswil and Bauma. Within the village, VZO bus routes 869 to Wetzikon, 870 via Hadlikon and Oberdürnten to Rüti, and 875 to Girenbad and Ringwil operate.
We also accompany you as movers to these neighbouring towns, for example for a move to Wetzikon, as a removals company for Dürnten, for furniture transport to Rüti or up to Bäretswil. We also move on Saturdays with no Saturday surcharge, and on request we take care of the end-of-tenancy cleaning of your old flat too.
Questions about Hinwil
Do you also move households to Girenbad, Ringwil or Wernetshausen?
Yes. Girenbad, Hadlikon, Ringwil, Unterbach, Unterholz and Wernetshausen are outlying hamlets of Hinwil, plus the hamlets of Bossikon and Erlosen. For addresses on the Bachtel slope we clarify access, gradient and vehicle size during the free survey.
Do you handle office relocations in Hinwil's industrial quarter?
Yes. Belimo, Ferag and the Audi Revolut F1 Team, among others, are based in the industrial quarter. We plan office relocations there outside your working hours, with furniture assembly and disposal on request.
Local moving logistics
Planning a move in Hinwil: village hill, Bachtel slope and Industrie West
Hinwil ranges from small businesses in the municipal centre through widely scattered hamlets to the Wässeri industrial area. For each of these locations we coordinate vehicle size, crew and parking space individually.
Municipal centre around the village hill
In the centre, flats mix with small businesses and shops. So that the removal lorry obstructs neither driveways nor customers, we fix the loading point in advance and reserve it if public ground is involved.
Girenbad and Ringwil
These two hamlets lie away from the village on bus route 875, while Hinwil itself stretches across the western slope of the Bachtel. Whether the large lorry or a more manoeuvrable vehicle fits there, we decide after the survey.
Hadlikon, Bossikon and Erlosen
Hadlikon on route 870 was mentioned as early as 775, Bossikon in 829, plus the hamlet of Erlosen. In old parts of the village we check door widths and carrying routes before deciding on furniture dimensions and loading order.
Parking reservation
If the removal lorry has to stand on a municipal road or in a public car park, we apply for the parking space at the responsible office in Hinwil. The authority charges the fees; we handle the application for you.
Disposal
We take discarded furniture and bulky items away after you move out and dispose of them properly for CHF 65.– per m³. Smaller quantities can be handed in at the collection point of the municipality of Hinwil.
B2B
Office relocations in Hinwil's industrial quarter
Belimo, Ferag and FBB, among others, are based in the industrial quarter, and the municipality is further developing the Wässeri industrial area. We handle office, IT and laboratory relocations outside working hours.

Frequently asked questions
What Hinwil residents want to know before moving
Who looks after files and archives in an office move in Hinwil's industrial quarter?
Our team, as part of the archive relocation. We pack binders and suspension files in their existing order, label the boxes by location and set everything up in exactly the same way in the new office. That way your team finds every file where they expect it on the first working day.
How do antiques from an old farmhouse in Bossikon or Erlosen arrive undamaged?
With blankets, film and suitable protective material that we wrap around each piece before it is carried. We add extra padding to delicate edges and glass parts, and straps secure the load in the lorry. Our own carpenters dismantle old wardrobes where suitable and reassemble them at the destination.
How does a move from Hinwil to the city of Zurich via the Forch expressway work?
From the Betzholz roundabout the route leads directly towards Zurich, and we plan the day so that loading in Hinwil and unloading in the city fit together. For the Zurich address we apply for the parking space at the city's responsible office. Our carpenters assemble the furniture on the same day.
What do you watch out for when moving from Ringwil or Girenbad down to central Hinwil?
Two different addresses on the same day: up on the Bachtel slope a manoeuvrable vehicle may be needed, while down in the centre the reserved loading point is what counts. We match vehicle, loading order and team size to this so that nothing has to be loaded twice and the lorry stands at both places without waiting.
Where does customs clearance happen when you move from Hinwil abroad?
In two places: the export goes through Swiss customs, the BAZG (Federal Office for Customs and Border Security), and the import through the customs authority of the destination country. We handle both for you as a complete customs clearance. You provide us with the details for the inventory list and deregister with the municipality of Hinwil.
What happens if something is criticised at the flat handover in Hinwil?
If you have booked our end-of-tenancy cleaning, our team attends the inspection and fixes any complaint immediately and free of charge. That is our handover guarantee. So you neither have to arrange a second appointment nor pick up a cleaning cloth yourself before the property management takes the keys.
What information do you need for a removals quote in Hinwil or an outlying hamlet?
Both addresses, the preferred date, number of rooms, floors and whether there is a lift. Also mention heavy single items such as a piano and extras such as cleaning or storage. For hamlets such as Unterbach or Unterholz, a note on the access helps too; we fill in the details at the survey.
