Bachofer Räumungen

Most clearance sites in this directory will not put a number on a job until someone has walked through the property. Bachofer Räumungen does, in a blog post rather than on the price page itself: a small apartment from CHF 750, a family house from CHF 2'000, a cellar on its own from CHF 400. That single decision, publishing an orientation price table instead of only a "free quote" button, is the most useful thing on the site for someone trying to work out whether to even pick up the phone.

What it is

Bachofer Räumungen is registered as Bachofer Räumungen klg (a Swiss general partnership, UID CHE-434.001.169) with its office at Am Kägenrain 3 in Reinach, in the canton of Basel-Landschaft. The site runs on Webflow and organises its own services under three headings: Räumung (clearance), Nachlass & Verwertung (estate dissolution and resale), and Entsorgung (disposal), reachable through one phone number and one quote form regardless of which is needed. A blog post on the site's own pricing is signed by a named person, Muamer Ceman, dated 6/7/2026, which is more attribution than most listings in this category offer for a page discussing money.

What you get

The clearance side covers houses, apartments, cellars, attics, garages and offices: the site lists Hausräumung, Wohnungsräumung, Firmenräumung, Lagerräumung, Möbelräumung, Praxisräumung, Zwangsräumungen (forced clearances), Kellerräumung, Estrichräumungen, Garagenräumungen, Hausauflösung, Entrümpelung, general Entsorgung and Innenabbruch/Rückbau (interior strip-out). Messie-Wohnungen (severely cluttered homes) get an explicit mention rather than being folded silently into "clearance."

The estate side is kept separate on the site rather than merged into general clearance, and covers Nachlassauflösung (settling and clearing an estate), Wertanrechnung (crediting resaleable items against the bill), Kommissionsverkauf (consignment sale) and Kunst & Antiquitätenvermittlung (art and antiques brokerage). On request the crew also does Endreinigung, the end-of-tenancy clean, and can hand a property back "bezugsbereit," ready to move into rather than merely swept.

A service that sits outside the clearance category entirely is the site's help for owners who want to sell a vacated property themselves: professional photos, drone shots, video and listing text, explicitly framed as a way to avoid a broker's commission. The site is equally explicit about the boundary: "Nein, wir sind keine Immobilienmakler und kaufen oder verkaufen keine Immobilien selbst" (no, we are not estate agents and do not buy or sell property ourselves). That is a rare instance in this category of a company drawing its own line around what it does and does not do, rather than blurring a real-estate-adjacent service into a claim of being one.

What stands out

The clearest distinguishing feature is the price table itself, published in a blog post titled "Hausräumung Basel mit Festpreis - ehrlich & transparent" rather than tucked into an FAQ. As an orientation, not a binding quote, it lists: small apartments (1-2 rooms) from CHF 750, medium apartments (3-4 rooms) from CHF 1'750, a single-family house from CHF 2'000, a cellar or attic clearance on its own from CHF 400, and an estate dissolution from CHF 1'500 upward. The post frames these explicitly as fixed prices confirmed in writing after a free site visit, with no hourly billing and no add-on charges, and notes that resaleable furniture, electronics or antiques get credited against the bill through the Wertanrechnung mechanism described above.

The site also claims over 1500 satisfied customers and more than 31 reviews online carrying a 5 out of 5 badge, and states more than 15 years of experience. None of the three figures comes with a date the company was founded, so nothing here should be read as naming a founding year, only that the site claims a customer count, a review count and a length of track record in those specific terms.

How it's organised

The homepage runs a three-step process: contact by phone or form, with a stated reply within 24 hours; a free on-site visit; then a written fixed-price offer before anything is booked. Separately, the site advertises express appointments within 48 hours and same-day service for emergencies, plus a WhatsApp line for after-hours contact. Office hours are given as Monday to Saturday, 8:00 to 19:00. Beyond the core service pages the site carries six blog posts covering topics like preparing a house for sale, moving a parent into assisted living, and settling a household after a death, which reads as a genuine attempt at a resource section rather than filler.

What it costs

Bachofer is one of the few listings in this category to publish real numbers before a visitor asks: the five price points above, all marked "ab" (starting from), plus the promise that the number becomes a written fixed quote after the site visit and does not move afterward. The site states this in direct contrast to the "cheap hourly rate that becomes an expensive final bill" complaint it says many Basel residents have had with other firms, though that framing is Bachofer's own characterisation of the market rather than a claim this write-up can independently verify. The company is described as fully insured for liability and accidents, though no coverage amount is published anywhere on the site.

How it compares

Against a competitor that offers only a quote button and no sense of scale, publishing five concrete price bands is a meaningfully more useful starting point for a reader trying to budget before they commit to a site visit. The real-estate-preparation add-on is also a genuine point of difference from a plain clearance operator, though it is a marketing and photography service, not a brokerage, and the site is careful to say so itself.

Who it suits

This fits someone in Basel-Stadt or Baselland clearing anything from a single cellar to a full house, who wants an approximate price before booking a visit rather than a blind quote request. The stated coverage extends to Solothurn (including Dornach) and Aargau, with Zürich available on request, so it is not limited strictly to the Basel region. It is a good match too for someone who needs to empty and then sell a property without hiring an agent, since the photo and listing-prep service is bundled with the same phone call. It is a weaker fit for someone outside those cantons who wants the seller-marketing side without a Basel-area address, since travel further afield is only "on request."

The verdict

A published, itemised starting-price table is the single strongest thing about this listing, and it is backed by a named legal entity, a real UID and a specific office address rather than a bare brand name. The claimed customer and review counts add some social proof, though they are Bachofer's own figures rather than independently audited ones, and the site never states an insurance sum or a founding year to check them against. For anyone in the Basel region who wants a sense of the bill before picking up the phone, this is one of the more transparent options in the category, and the free-visit-then-fixed-price structure removes most of the risk of an unpleasant final invoice.
