    Process

    Compactly planned: your move in Steinhausen ZG in 5 steps

    A small area, many housing developments and international headquarters: in Steinhausen, the lift, stopping place and timing are what count. Five targeted steps are enough for a smooth moving day.

    1. 01

      Survey with lift measurements

      We look at your flat or office, measure the lift in the residential complex and clarify access. We then send you the quote within 24 hours.

    2. 02

      Application to the safety department

      We apply for the removal truck's stopping place via the municipality's Abteilung Sicherheit und Tiefbau (safety and civil engineering department). The fee is sent to you directly from there.

    3. 03

      Loading in the residential complex

      Depending on access, we load via the underground car park or the forecourt. We pad the lift car, corridors and floors beforehand so that no marks are left in the development.

    4. 04

      Servers and workstations

      We move companies around Turmstrasse or in the BusinessParkZUG in the evening or at the weekend, with server rooms and computers handled as part of our IT relocation service.

    5. 05

      Assembly and handover

      Our carpenters set everything up at the destination, and discarded furniture goes with us for proper disposal. On request, final cleaning with a handover guarantee follows.

    Moving to Steinhausen

    Place the forwarding order for your letters no later than 4 working days before the move. You do not need to notify Serafe (radio/TV licence fee); the Einwohnerkontrolle (residents' registration office) passes on the address automatically.

    In Steinhausen, permits for public ground are handled by the Abteilung Sicherheit und Tiefbau. We submit the application for the stopping place there free of charge, and the municipality sends you the fee directly.

    Disposal and bulky waste

    Whatever is surplus when switching to a smaller flat, we take with us during the move. The rate is CHF 65.– per m³ plus labour; the municipality provides information on drop-off points for recyclables.

    Moving costs Steinhausen

    Steinhausen: the cost of a move in a tight space in the canton of Zug

    At 5.04 km², Steinhausen is the smallest municipality by area in the canton of Zug, and many people live close together. Whether the lift in a housing development is big enough for furniture, where the truck can stop and how long the route to the flat door is determine the effort involved. On top of that comes the journey there and back of about 25 km as the crow flies from Wallisellen, which counts as working time. On Saturdays we move without a surcharge.

        Steinhausen at a glance

        Steinhausen in brief: the smallest area in the canton of Zug

        If you are moving in Steinhausen, you benefit from a moving company that takes a close look at the town and its surroundings before moving day. Steinhausen lies on south-facing terrain not far from Lake Zug, between 417 and 529 m above sea level. The S5 S-Bahn line serves the municipality (including towards Zug and Zürich HB), and since 2012 also the Steinhausen Rigiblick stop; the A14 forms the southern municipal boundary.

        Our moving service covers all of Steinhausen, including Bann and Erli. Steinhausen borders Knonau, Kappel am Albis, Baar, Zug and Cham; we organise moves across the municipal boundary with one team and one quote.

        Getting to know Steinhausen

        Moving company Steinhausen: a small area with urban density

        At 5.04 km², Steinhausen is the smallest municipality by area in the canton of Zug, but the fifth largest by population. At the end of 2018, 10,025 people lived here, around 8 per cent of the canton's population. With so little space, many people live and work close together, and that is exactly what shapes a move in Steinhausen.

        From apple village to agglomeration

        Until the SBB station on the Zurich–Zug line opened in 1904, Steinhausen was a farming village with just 80 houses, 40 barns and around 4000 apple trees. Strong growth set in after 1958. Between 1985 and 2005 many housing developments were built, along with a bypass and the motorway. The farming village has not disappeared entirely, though: four dairy farmers still deliver their milk to the village cheese dairy, which uses it to make Sbrinz.

        For a moving company in Steinhausen, this means that alongside older houses in the village, there are numerous developments from that period. During the free survey we clarify where the removal truck can stop, whether the lift is big enough for furniture and how long the route to the flat door is. If needed, we arrange a parking reservation or use a furniture lift.

        Company headquarters on Turmstrasse and at Zugerland

        Thanks to the low tax rate in the canton of Zug, multinational companies such as Carlo Gavazzi Holding, Transocean and Porsche have their headquarters in Steinhausen. The former Sumpfstrasse is now called Turmstrasse on the Steinhausen side, named after the 4-Towers. There are also businesses such as Swisspor and the Zugerland shopping centre, which ranks among the ten largest in Switzerland by turnover.

        What our removals company takes on for businesses:

        • office relocation outside business hours, so offices and shops stay open
        • dismantling and assembly of workstations
        • furniture storage if there are days between moving out and moving in
        • disposal of furniture that is no longer needed

        Short distances to Zug, Baar and Cham

        The municipal area rises to the north, from its lowest point at 417 m above sea level not far from Lake Zug up to 529 m above sea level. Besides the village, it includes the hamlets of Bann and Erli. To the north Steinhausen borders Knonau and Kappel am Albis in the canton of Zurich, to the east Baar, to the south Zug and to the west Cham.

        For moves in the neighbourhood we are ready as movers for Cham, for a move in Baar or in the town of Zug. From our base in Wallisellen it is about 25 km as the crow flies. Your moving company in Steinhausen also moves on Saturdays, with no Saturday surcharge.

        Questions about Steinhausen

        Do you also do removals to the hamlets of Bann and Erli?
        Yes. Besides the village, Bann and Erli belong to the municipality of Steinhausen. For addresses in the hamlets we clarify access and stopping place during the survey, just as in the centre.

        Do you handle office moves on Turmstrasse in Steinhausen?
        Yes. Several international companies have their headquarters on Turmstrasse, named after the 4-Towers, and in the surrounding area. We plan office moves outside your business hours and assemble the workstations at the new location.

        Local moving logistics

        Moving in Steinhausen: housing developments, Bann, Erli and company headquarters

        Steinhausen slopes from 529 metres in the north down to 417 metres near Lake Zug and is densely built up. For housing developments, hamlets and company headquarters, we plan the stopping place and lift use separately in each case.

        Housing developments from 1985 to 2005

        Numerous housing developments were built during this period, along with a bypass and the motorway. In large residential complexes we clarify in advance where the removal truck may stop, whether an underground car park is accessible and what dimensions the lift can take.

        The hamlets of Bann and Erli

        Besides the village, the hamlets of Bann and Erli belong to Zug's smallest municipality by area. Outside the village we determine vehicle size and stopping place during the survey so that moving day runs without detours.

        Parking reservation

        Abteilung Sicherheit und Tiefbau

        In Steinhausen, permits and parking management are the responsibility of the Abteilung Sicherheit und Tiefbau (safety and civil engineering department). Our application for your removal truck's stopping place also goes through this department; the municipality invoices you directly for the fee.

        Disposal

        Furniture that no longer has a place in the new flat we take with us and dispose of properly for CHF 65.– per m³. You can find out from the municipality of Steinhausen where small quantities and recyclables are accepted.

        B2B

        Company, IT and office relocations in Steinhausen

        According to the municipality, companies in communications technology, building technology, the food industry and commodity trading are based here, and young companies work in the BusinessParkZUG. For server rooms we offer our IT and laboratory relocation service, and we move entire offices in the evening or at the weekend.

        Frequently asked questions

        Steinhausen: answers about moving

        Who is responsible if I move with my car from Steinhausen to Knonau ZH?

        By moving to Knonau you switch from the canton of Zug to the canton of Zurich; you therefore re-register the vehicle with the Strassenverkehrsamt (road traffic office) of the canton of Zurich and receive Zurich number plates. We move your household goods across the cantonal border with the same survey and a joint quote for both addresses.

        How do you load in a Steinhausen housing development if only the underground car park leads to the lift?

        First, during the survey, we measure the entrance height of the underground car park, because that determines which truck will fit in. If it is too low for the removal truck, we stop at the entrance or on the forecourt and bring boxes and furniture on trolleys through the car park to the lift. We protect the route there with floor protection and padding.

        How do you prevent scratches in the lift and stairwell of a Steinhausen residential complex?

        We line the lift car with protective mats, cover floors and thresholds and pad door frames and banisters. Furniture is carried wrapped in blankets, never pushed across the floor. After the move we remove the protective material again so that the caretaker and neighbours find no marks.

        When should I add the packing service in Steinhausen?

        If you are short of time before the move, own a lot of fragile items or are clearing a large flat. Our team packs the kitchen, books and clothes professionally, labels the boxes by destination room and unpacks again at the new address on request. The cost is shown transparently in the quote.

        What are the benefits of a cost ceiling for a move from Steinhausen to Zug?

        You know before moving day the maximum amount the move will cost. Without a cost ceiling, we charge the actual time in 15-minute increments, with a minimum of 3 hours. We agree the cost ceiling or a flat rate after the free survey and record it in the quote.

        What help does a start-up get when moving from the BusinessParkZUG into its own offices?

        An office move on the right scale: we pack computers and monitors as an IT relocation, move desks and files and reassemble the workstations at the new location. We schedule the date for an evening or a Saturday so that your team loses hardly any working time. If the new premises are not ready yet, we put the furniture into storage.

        What matters for an office move into a high-rise on Turmstrasse in Steinhausen?

        Early coordination with the building management about deliveries, lift use and the times when we are allowed to work. With this information we plan team size and sequence so that the building is cleared floor by floor. We pad lift cars and corridors and number workstations according to the room plan so that every desk ends up in the right place at the new location.
