Move from Switzerland with Confidence

Moving to another country can feel overwhelming, especially when you're relocating your entire household or car. That’s why we’ve created this helpful guide to walk you through everything clearly. I’ll explain the services we offer, how you can get a reliable quote, which documents you’ll need, and how to avoid unnecessary delays or extra costs. Whether you’re moving to Europe, Asia, the Middle East, North America, or anywhere else in the world, we handle the heavy lifting. Our goal is to make your international move smooth, safe, and stress-free from start to finish.

Plan Your Move Step by Step

Choose Your Destination and Timeline

First, you need to decide where you are moving and when. This is important because shipping schedules depend on the destination and available container space. If you are moving in summer, book early. Summer is busy for all moving companies in Switzerland.

If you are moving a small apartment, a 20-foot container may be enough. If you are moving a family home or including a car, you may need a 40-foot container. Our team can help you estimate the right size.

Understand Your Shipping Options Before You Move

When moving out of Switzerland, it’s important to choose the shipping method that best suits your budget, timeline, and volume of belongings. At LetsMuvu, we offer flexible international shipping solutions to match your unique needs.

You have two main container options:

  • Full Container Load (FCL):
    This means you get an entire container exclusively for your belongings. Ideal for full-household moves or when shipping bulky items like furniture, appliances, and vehicles together.

  • Less than Container Load (LCL):
    You share container space with others. This is a more cost-effective solution for smaller moves or when you have fewer items.

In addition to the container type, you can choose the mode of transport:

  • Sea Freight:
    The most popular and affordable option for full household moves. Although it takes longer, it’s ideal if you’re moving a complete home from Switzerland to another country.

  • Air Freight:
    Much faster than sea freight, but also more expensive. Best for small, urgent shipments or valuable personal items that need to arrive quickly.

Moving Your Car Too? We Make It Easy

If you’re planning to relocate your vehicle along with your household items, we’ve got the expertise to handle it professionally. At LetsMuvu, we offer secure car shipping in containers, either combined with your home items or as a separate shipment, depending on your needs.

Here’s what you need to do before we can ship your car:

  • Drain the fuel to meet international shipping safety standards

  • Clean the car inside and out (some countries require this for customs clearance)

  • Prepare ownership documents including the car registration and your personal ID

We handle the logistics, but it's also important that you follow your destination country's import rules. For example:

  • USA: Must meet US Customs and EPA regulations

  • UK: Requires registration through DVLA and specific emissions documentation

  • EU: Follows EU-wide import rules, often based on emissions, taxes, and age of the vehicle

We’ll guide you through the paperwork so your car arrives without delays or penalties.

Tell us you're moving your car so we can include it in your personalized moving quote.
