A clearance is different from disposing of individual items. Clearance means completely emptying a defined space — a basement storage compartment, a self-storage unit, a flat full of belongings, or a commercial office floor. Whatever the space contains — furniture, electronics, archives, clothing, tools, hazardous materials — we take it all, sort it correctly, and dispose of everything responsibly.
In Zürich, clearances are most often triggered by a life event: moving out of a flat, a family bereavement, a care home admission, a business closure, or the end of a storage contract. Each situation has its own timeline, emotional weight, and practical requirements. We have a dedicated service page for each one.
What makes ZüriClean uniquely positioned: we are also Zürich's professional cleaning provider. Most clearances that end with a space being handed back also need a professional clean. We handle both in one booking — one fixed price, one team, one point of contact.

zuericlean.com/disposal-servicesEvery clearance that ends with a space being handed back to a landlord or a new occupant also needs a professional clean. In Zürich, that is most clearances. Swiss landlords and commercial lease agreements almost always require a defined cleaning standard at handover. Failing to meet it results in the deposit being withheld or the handover being rejected.
ZüriClean is the only clearance company in Zürich that also provides certified end-of-tenancy cleaning with a handover guarantee for flats, and commercial cleaning to agency standard for offices. Both in one booking — cleared first, cleaned next, handed over ready.
Some clearances are among the most difficult tasks a person faces. A family member has passed away. An elderly parent is moving into care. A business that has been part of someone's life is closing. These situations need more than a removal truck.
ZüriClean approaches sensitive clearances with a consistent set of principles:
Whether it is a basement compartment, a flat full of memories, or an office closing under difficult circumstances — we treat every clearance with the respect it deserves. Call us directly if you want to talk it through before committing to anything.
Every ZüriClean clearance — regardless of space type — follows the same structured process:
For apartments and offices, we always visit first. For basements and storage units, photos and a description often suffice. We assess volume, content types, access, and any special materials (Sonderabfall, data, IT).
Within 24 hours. Binding and complete. No add-ons on the day. For sensitive situations, we allow time before you need to confirm.
Team arrives on time with all equipment. We work systematically, sort as we go, and clear the space completely. Expected duration confirmed in advance for larger jobs.
Every clearance ends with the space broom-clean. Written clearance confirmation on request. Cleaning follows directly if booked. Destruction certificates for IT and documents provided, where applicable.
▌ Warning on low quotes: any provider offering a full flat clearance for CHF 100–200 cannot cover Swiss disposal fees legitimately. This ends in illegal dumping — for which you as the client may be liable — or aggressive renegotiation on the day. A fixed price after a free site visit is always the correct approach.
| Service | Guide Price From | Key Pricing Factor |
|---|---|---|
| Basement Clearance | from CHF 280 | Space size (m³) + content type + Sonderabfall |
| Storage Clearance | from CHF 280 | Unit size + self-storage access constraints |
| Apartment Clearance | from CHF 490 | Flat size + estate complexity + access |
| Office Clearance | from CHF 800 | Floor area + IT destruction + racking removal |
| Clearance + cleaning combined | on request | Always more economical than separate bookings |

Disposal means removing specific items — a sofa, a mattress, a kitchen. Clearance means completely emptying a defined space — a basement, a flat, an office — regardless of what is inside. ZüriClean offers both: see Disposal Services for item-by-item collection, and this page for full space clearance.
Guide prices start from CHF 280 for a small basement, from CHF 490 for a studio flat, and from CHF 800 for a small office. Larger clearances are quoted individually after a free site visit. Every quote is fixed and written before we start.
