Your project in the canton of Basel-Stadt
Basel-Stadt is an urban canton made up of the city of Basel and the municipalities of Riehen and Bettingen. On both banks of the Rhine, Grossbasel and Kleinbasel combine old townhouses, early twentieth-century apartment buildings and contemporary architecture. The old town, with its steep lanes and inner courtyards, can make vehicle access tricky. Greener Riehen has mainly villas, while hilltop Bettingen keeps a village feel. In such a dense setting, parking, scaffolding and rubble removal need forward planning. The local language is German, but your request can be written in English without difficulty. For any work on an old building or in the old town, check with your municipality beforehand. State the district or municipality, postcode and parking arrangements or access to the building's courtyard.
- In the old town, describe the width of the street and whether there is a lift.
- For a flat in a rental building, say whether the owner or the property management company has given their agreement.
- Mention whether there is space in the courtyard to store materials during the work.
Removals in the canton of Basel-Stadt
In Basel-Stadt, removals usually take place in a dense urban setting, with old rental buildings and streets with restricted traffic. In the old town and the districts near the Rhine, lanes are narrow, trams run close to the pavements and a lorry's stop must be planned in advance: an authorisation, requested from the municipality, allows the space to be reserved. Many older homes have no lift, which makes a furniture lift up the façade very useful for higher floors. In Riehen, family homes with gardens mean managing larger volumes and outdoor furniture. Although the canton is German-speaking, your request can still be written in English.
- For an older flat without a lift, ask whether a furniture lift can be set up in front of your window or balcony.
- Check whether a tram line runs past your building, as the lorry's position will then need to be chosen carefully.

Frequently asked questions
How can I prepare my move in Basel-Stadt?
Draw up an inventory of the furniture and boxes to be moved, noting bulky or fragile items. Check access at both addresses, such as lifts, stairs and parking for the lorry. Ask the removal company whether it provides boxes, packing and furniture dismantling.
Why are both addresses important in a moving request?
Stairs, lift dimensions, parking and carrying distances affect how belongings can be handled. Include these details for both departure and arrival, together with bulky items. Tell the mover about access restrictions so the handling method and any required arrangements can be discussed in advance.
What should I compare in moving services quotes?
Compare packing, loading, transport, unloading and furniture assembly against the same inventory. Identify boxes, storage and special handling separately. Ask for the terms for handling damage and changes to the inventory, and confirm who arranges access or parking where necessary.
How should I prepare for the moving services visit or work?
Label items by destination room and separate valuables or personal documents to keep with you. Share access details privately and confirm that lifts or shared entrances can be used. Agree which furniture should remain assembled until the moving team assesses it.
