Through Münchwilen in 6 steps – from the village centre across the Murg
Businesses in the centre, homes beyond the Murg and hamlets on the edge: depending on the address, Münchwilen calls for different preparation, which we fix early on.
- 01
Enquiry and survey appointment
After your enquiry we survey the flat on site or by video and note access, floors and volume for a transparent quote.
- 02
Parking space on the main road
In the village centre between railway, homes and businesses, we determine the parking space in advance and have it reserved through the responsible office in Münchwilen.
- 03
Route over the Murg bridge
If an address is in Oberhofen, we plan the drive across the Murg so that the removal lorry can stop right in front of both entrances.
- 04
Hamlets with a long carry
In Sedel, Pfannenstil or Holzmannshaus, where paths are narrow, we allow for a longer walk to the lorry and deploy enough carriers.
- 05
Unpacking and assembly
Whether St. Margarethen, Sirnach or Wil, at the destination our carpenters assemble the furniture and place the boxes in the intended rooms.
- 06
Final walk-through together
We go through the new flat with you, adjust furniture if needed and take the protective film and blankets away again.

Münchwilen has had its own A1 junction since 1969, and our base in Wallisellen is around 31 km away as the crow flies. With us, travel to and from counts as working time.

Saturday dates cost no surcharge, and the survey is free of charge.

Getting to know Münchwilen
Moving company Münchwilen: district capital on the Murg
Since 1871 Münchwilen, then a regional industrial centre, has been the capital of the district of the same name in place of Tobel. The municipality in the Hinterthurgau lies around four kilometres west of Wil, forms a kind of agglomeration with Sirnach and has the Murg river flowing through it. On 31 December 2023 it had 5874 inhabitants, 4738 of them in the village of Münchwilen.
Three stars in the coat of arms
The three stars in the municipal coat of arms stand for the former local communities of Münchwilen, Oberhofen and St. Margarethen, which merged into a unified municipality in 1950. Oberhofen and Sigensee once belonged to the lordship of Tannegg, while Münchwilen itself belonged to the high court on the Tuttwilerberg until 1798. Several hamlets are also part of the municipality:
- Freudenberg and Holzmannshaus
- Mezikon and Pfannenstil
- Sedel and Sigensee
As a moving company in Münchwilen, we plan each of these addresses individually. In the village centre, it is mainly about the parking space and parking reservation; for a house in a hamlet, it is about access and vehicle size. We clarify both during the free survey, on site or by WhatsApp video.
Industry in the middle of the village
A mill on the Murg is mentioned as early as 1601, and a cotton spinning mill founded in 1817 gave rise to the Heitz weaving mill and the Zellweger spinning mill. Trades and industry are still located right in the village centre today. Companies based there include Diversey, founded in 1858 as the Sutter vinegar factory, Swisstulle AG since 1913, and the lighting and metal goods manufacturer Huco AG since 1927. In 2016 the municipality offered 1906 full-time jobs, 46% of them in industry, trades and construction.
With us, an office relocation can be done outside working hours so that production and deliveries continue. If you are moving in the village centre between homes and businesses, you benefit from us fixing the parking space in advance.
Murg bridge, railway and A1
The Murg bridge to Oberhofen was built in 1774, and the Wil–Winterthur road in 1785. Since 1887 the Frauenfeld-Wil-Bahn railway has run through Münchwilen, with the main road running parallel; the railway is likely to have encouraged the strong growth around 1900. In 1969 the municipality got its own junction on the A1 motorway, and since 2021 bus route 739 has connected Münchwilen with Sirnach.
Münchwilen is around 31 km as the crow flies from our base in Wallisellen. On request we also carry out private moves on Saturdays with no Saturday surcharge, and take care of furniture assembly, end-of-tenancy cleaning and disposal.
Moves to the nearby area are short and quickly planned too: a move to Sirnach, movers for Wil or along the Frauenfeld-Wil-Bahn towards Frauenfeld. Your removals company in Münchwilen prepares the quote within 24 hours.
Questions about Münchwilen
Do you also move households to St. Margarethen and Oberhofen?
Yes. St. Margarethen and Oberhofen have been part of the unified municipality of Münchwilen since 1950, as have hamlets such as Freudenberg, Holzmannshaus, Mezikon and Sigensee. For each address we clarify access and carrying route during the survey.
Do you handle office relocations in the centre of Münchwilen?
Yes. In Münchwilen, trades and industry are located in the village centre, including companies such as Swisstulle and Huco. We plan office relocations so that they can take place outside your working hours.
Local moving logistics
Moving in Münchwilen: village centre, Murg and hamlets in the Hinterthurgau
In Münchwilen people live in the village centre between businesses, in the former local communities of Oberhofen and St. Margarethen, or in one of the hamlets. Each of these locations makes its own demands on moving day.
Village centre on the main road and railway
The main road runs parallel to the Frauenfeld-Wil-Bahn, with homes and industry alongside. We load in a way that does not obstruct delivery or through traffic, and fix the parking space beforehand.
Oberhofen beyond the Murg
Since 1774 the Murg bridge has led to Oberhofen, now part of Münchwilen. For a move across the Murg we plan the route in advance so that the lorry stands in front of the house without a detour.
St. Margarethen
The former local community has been part of Münchwilen since 1950. If you are moving from here to the centre or to Sirnach, moving out and in can be done in one day, on a Saturday with no surcharge if you wish.
Hamlets such as Sedel and Pfannenstil
Münchwilen includes several hamlets outside the village. Where the path is narrow or the house is remote, we include a longer carrying route in the quote straight away.
Parking reservation
If the removal lorry has to stand on public ground, we take care of the parking reservation with the responsible office in Münchwilen. The authority invoices any fees directly.
Disposal
We take old furniture, worn carpets or slatted bed bases with us on moving day and dispose of them properly for CHF 65.– per m³. For small quantities, the municipality of Münchwilen provides information on drop-off options.

Frequently asked questions
Münchwilen TG: questions about moving
Who arranges parking when I move from Münchwilen across the canton border to Wil SG?
We handle both reservations: in Münchwilen with the municipality's responsible office, and in Wil with the local authority in the canton of St. Gallen. We set them for the same moving day so that the lorry stands close to the entrance at both addresses. In the customer portal, enter Wil as your new municipality so that the checklist shows the St. Gallen offices.
How do you move households from Münchwilen to Winterthur in the canton of Zurich?
We handle moving out and moving in on the same day. Depending on traffic, the route goes via the village's own A1 junction or the old Wil–Winterthur road. Because you are changing canton, the customer portal shows you the Zurich offices for registration and vehicle. We apply for the parking space in Winterthur at the local office.
How do you protect the stairwell and lift when moving out of a block of flats in Münchwilen?
Before the first piece of furniture we lay floor protection, pad the lift car and cover door frames and banisters. After unloading we remove everything again. That way shared areas stay undamaged, and the inspection by the property management goes without discussion.
What should I watch out for with a house between the Frauenfeld-Wil-Bahn and the main road?
A loading spot on the right side: we position the lorry so that neither the railway line nor the carriageway has to be crossed, and carry by the shortest route to the front door. If the entrance faces the road, we reserve the parking space in advance so that buses and delivery vans can pass unhindered.
When do the boxes arrive at a house in Sigensee, Mezikon or Freudenberg?
In good time before moving day we deliver the free boxes and packing materials to the hamlets too, not just to the village. We agree the delivery date with you so that someone is at home. After moving in, we collect the emptied boxes from your new address.
What if moving day does not fall on Münchwilen's Thursday bulky waste collection?
Then you do not have to store old furniture in the cellar or outside the house for days. We load discarded items directly on moving day and dispose of them properly, without fee stickers and without waiting for the next collection. For small single items, the municipality's weekly collection remains an alternative.
Which rooms should I pack first before moving in Münchwilen?
Those you will hardly need before moving day: cellar, attic, bookshelves and seasonal clothing. Kitchen and bathroom come last. Label each box with its destination room and contents, and our removal crew will put it straight in the right place at the new home.
