Removals from Switzerland to Coventry

We run Switzerland → UK collections on the same monthly schedule as our outbound loads. Collection from Zurich, Geneva, Basel, Lausanne and beyond; delivery into any CV1-CV6 address in Coventry.

Switzerland is a non-EU move, which surprises a lot of first-time relocators — a full Swiss customs declaration is mandatory even when nothing is dutiable. We run Switzerland trips through the Geneva or Basel border and know the language quirks of each canton (Zurich German, Geneva French, Ticino Italian). Inbound moves use the same door-to-door coordinator, the same insured crew and the same fixed written pricing model as our UK-to-Switzerland work — no local Switzerland agent handing you off at the border.

Since Brexit, personal effects entering the UK from Switzerland need a formal customs declaration. Returning UK residents and new UK arrivals can claim UK Transfer of Residence (ToR1) relief and import used household goods VAT- and duty-free, provided items have been owned and used abroad for at least 6 months and the move happens within 12 months of establishing UK residency.

We prepare the ToR1 application, the C3 / C5 customs declaration and the inventory in English (and the local language where required) so nothing stalls at Dover, Folkestone or Killingholme.

Coventry City Council parking suspensions take 5-10 working days. We arrange the Coventry parking permit and lift booking before the vehicle leaves Bern so the unload runs to the same tight schedule as our domestic UK moves.

Rail context: Coventry Station. Vehicle access via M6 (J2-J3), M42 and A45 access. Neighbourhoods we deliver to weekly include City Centre, Earlsdon, Coundon, Cheylesmore, Stoke, Radford.

Indicative pricing on the Switzerland → Coventry route mirrors the outbound direction: £1,600 (small part-load to Basel or Zurich) up to £6,800+ (dedicated 4-bed home to Geneva or Zug). Return-leg / combined loads can reduce the shared-part-load cost noticeably when your dates are flexible by 1-2 weeks — ask us about the next combined Iberian / Central European run.

Every quote is fixed in writing after a video survey of the Switzerland property. No day-of surprises, no Switzerland-agent surcharges, no separate UK delivery invoice.
