  • Leisure Travel

    In the winter the frosted slopes of the Bernese Oberland are prime for skiing. When the sun melts the snow, hiking and biking take place along the valleys and beside shimmering lakes. Once you’ve had your fill of the natural world, explore the arty city of Basel, lake lounging in Lausanne, and the sophisticated city of Geneva.

    If you’re going to Switzerland for leisure travel, don’t mess around with airport queues and excess baggage fees. Send your items with us and we’ll have them waiting at your hotel, ready for your arrival.

  • Business Travel

Packing Considerations

Follow our guide and recommendations on how to pack your items for safe shipping

Luggage

Luggage

Pack your belongings in a hard or soft suitcase, but please make sure all the straps are tucked in, taped down, or taken off. For this reason, we do not accept rucksacks and holdalls. It is better to opt for a sturdy suitcase, rather than a lightweight one, and we do not recommend shipping designer luggage.

Place your labels in a plastic sleeve and attach it securely to the suitcases with cable ties. This will prevent the labels falling off and the bags being lost. Do not lock your suitcase when closing it, as customs and/or the courier may need to verify the contents of your items.

Boxes

Boxes

We recommend shipping boxes to Switzerland in a double-walled box or higher. Within the boxes, we recommend packaging up individual fragile items with some form of cushioning, like bubble wrap. Ideally, spread your heavy items out between boxes rather than packing a whole box of heavy items. Include a spare copy of your label in the box for verification purposes.
