Your project in the canton of Vaud

The canton of Vaud stretches from the shores of Lake Geneva to the Vaud Alps. Lausanne, built on steep slopes, has many older rental buildings, condominium flats and streets where parking is difficult. On the Riviera, Vevey and Montreux combine Belle Époque buildings with villas overlooking the lake, while the slopes of Lavaux are covered in terraced vineyards. Nyon and Morges combine old towns and residential districts. Yverdon-les-Bains, at the end of Lake Neuchâtel, and Payerne, in the Broye, open onto more rural surroundings. In the Chablais and the Alps, around Aigle, chalets and mountain houses contend with snow. For a façade, windows or an extension, approval may be required, so check with your municipality. State the municipality and postcode, the type of property and access to the rooms or outdoor areas concerned.

  • In Lausanne, describe the slope of the street, the floor and parking options for a works vehicle.
  • For a winegrower's house in Lavaux, describe access via the vineyard paths and the space available.
  • For a chalet in the Vaud Alps, give the altitude and the period when the road is clear.

House clearance and removal of unwanted items in the canton of Vaud

In the canton of Vaud, clearances are divided between towns, vineyards and mountain regions. In Lausanne, the steep streets and old rental buildings without lifts make carrying demanding; the property management company often expects an empty home before the inspection. On the Riviera, homes with panoramic views and former guesthouses are vacated on the occasion of a sale or estate settlement. In Lavaux, winegrowers' cellars overflow with barrels and tools. Around Payerne, farms and family homes have large lofts. Towards the Vaud Alps, chalets require transport along mountain roads. For a skip on the pavement, consult the municipality.

  • In a Lausanne building on a slope, identify the entrance at the most accessible street level, sometimes at the back of the building.
  • For a cellar in Lavaux, say whether barrels or vats must be removed, as their weight and size require a prepared team.

Frequently asked questions

How should retained and collected items be distinguished in Vaud?

List the objects to collect by room, with safe photographs of larger pieces, and mark anything that must stay. Describe items destined for another address separately from disposal. Confirm the inventory and collection arrangements before the team starts, so similar furniture or boxed belongings are not removed by mistake.

How should special or unidentified waste be described?

Keep hazardous, unknown or potentially contaminated materials separate in the description and do not mix or dismantle them. Explain what is known about their origin. Ask which materials the removal service accepts and what assessment or specialist handling is needed before collection is agreed.

What should I compare in clearance and removal quotes?

Compare the inventory, carrying, loading and disposal arrangements, including any agreed dismantling. Identify items retained or moved elsewhere. Ask how special materials are handled and what collection or disposal documentation is available, rather than assuming all waste follows the same route.

How should I prepare for the clearance and removal visit or work?

Mark items to keep clearly and keep personal documents or valuables aside. Provide lift, stair and parking details and arrange shared-area access where needed. Do not move unstable heavy items alone; agree how they will be assessed and carried by the collection team.
