Wharf → Switzerland · Zurich & Geneva
Removals from Canary Wharf to Switzerland
Switzerland is the private-banking posting — Zurich and Geneva as familiar to a Wharf career as the Jubilee line, and a route where careful customs and the handling of fine things come together.
Why Wharf professionals move to Switzerland
The ties between the Wharf and Switzerland run deep — private banking and asset management in Zurich, the international organisations and hedge funds of Geneva, the low-key discretion of Zug. It is a considered move, often made with belongings worth protecting.
It is also a route where paperwork and access genuinely matter. As a non-EU country, Switzerland asks more of the customs side, and its smart communes can be exacting to deliver into — exactly the kind of move a methodical firm is built for.
How the Wharf–Switzerland route runs
We pack and inventory your home in the Wharf, cross the Channel, and run overland through France to the Swiss border, then onward to your canton. The route is planned around the border formalities so that clearance is prompt and the load keeps moving.
For valuables, art and fine furniture — common on this route — our specialist crating and handling apply, with appropriate cover, and delivery timed to your start date.
Customs & documentation
Switzerland is outside the EU, so a detailed household inventory and a formal customs declaration are required at entry. We prepare the full documentation with you well ahead of collection, and coordinate clearance so the crossing does not become a delay.

Questions about moving to Switzerland
Does Switzerland need more customs work than an EU move?
It does, and it is why the route rewards experience. Switzerland sits outside the EU, so a detailed inventory and a formal declaration are required at the border. We prepare it all in advance and coordinate clearance, so the crossing is a formality, not a hold-up.
Which Swiss cities do you move to?
Zurich and Geneva above all — the banking and the international-organisation cities — plus Zug, Basel and Lausanne. Access in the smart lakeside communes is planned carefully at survey.
Can you move valuables and fine furniture?
Yes. Many Swiss moves involve art, watches, wine and fine furniture. These are assessed at survey, crated to a bespoke standard, and covered appropriately for the journey.
