Flat Rates for Moving: Transparency and Cost Certainty
Moving can be stressful, but with a flat rate offer, you maintain full cost control. Instead of unexpected additional costs, you receive a fixed price from the start that covers all services.
Why Flat Rates for Moving Make Sense

Sample Flat Rates for Various Moves
Here are some typical flat rates for different move sizes in Zurich:
Apartment Size | Flat Rate (from) |
---|---|
1-room apartment (up to 40 m²) | CHF 600 – 900 |
2-room apartment (up to 60 m²) | CHF 900 – 1,400 |
3-room apartment (up to 80 m²) | CHF 1,400 – 2,000 |

How is the Flat Rate Calculated?
A moving flat rate is composed of several factors:
- Apartment size: More household goods mean more effort.
- Distance: A local move is cheaper than a long-distance move.
- Floor elevator: A move from the 4th floor without a lift requires more time.
- Additional services: Packing service, furniture assembly, or final cleaning affect the price.
When is a Flat Rate Particularly Beneficial?
A fixed price is especially advantageous when:
✅Clear planning: You want to know in advance what your move will cost.
✅Fixed timeframe: Your move must be completed on a specific day.
✅No stress with renegotiations: You want to avoid surprises in the final bill.
