We move what others find too heavy! Industrial moves by the specialists
Whether it’s a single production machine, a complete production line, or an entire industrial site: Bollhalder plans and carries out machine relocations, machine transport, and production relocations—in Eastern Switzerland, throughout Switzerland, and internationally. From disassembly to removal and heavy-haul transport, right through to installation and reassembly at the new location, we coordinate every step of the process. With experienced specialists, our own lifting and transport equipment, and custom-designed solutions, we move even heavy and hard-to-reach machines safely and efficiently.
Heavy machinery, limited access, and complex production environments call for well-thought-out transport solutions. Whether a machine needs to be moved within a production facility, removed from a building, or brought into a new location—we develop a suitable transport concept for every task. To achieve this, we use, among other things, heavy-duty transport chassis, hydraulic lifting systems, specialized cranes, and custom-designed load-handling attachments. This allows even the most challenging machine relocations and transports to be carried out safely and with precise control.

Frequently Asked Questions About Machine and Equipment Transport
How does Bollhalder handle an industrial move?
Following a detailed on-site analysis, Bollhalder Industrielogistik AG prepares a transparent, project-specific quote and a precise implementation plan. A single point of contact then coordinates all steps—from disassembly to transport to reassembly—ensuring a smooth process with minimal downtime, even while production is ongoing.
How much does it cost to move a machine?
The cost of a machine relocation depends on the weight and dimensions of the machines, the available space, the lifting and transport equipment required, and the scope of disassembly and reassembly. Bollhalder Industrielogistik AG plans machine relocations on a case-by-case basis and prepares a project-specific quote after clarifying the requirements.
What types of machinery and equipment can Bollhalder transport?
Bollhalder Industrielogistik AG transports and moves machinery and industrial equipment of all types and sizes. This includes, for example, production machinery, machine tools, presses, and entire plant components. Even heavy, large, or hard-to-reach machines can be moved using appropriate lifting and transport technology. Our own BAKRAN, for example, was built for this purpose.
Does Bollhalder handle complete machine relocations and production relocations?
Yes. In addition to transporting individual machines, Bollhalder also handles complete machine relocations and production site relocations. Depending on the project, we handle the planning, disassembly, removal, transport, installation at the new location, and reassembly of the machines and equipment. We have special cranes and truck-mounted cranes of all sizes available for this purpose.
Does Bollhalder transport machinery and equipment throughout Switzerland?
Yes. Bollhalder Industrielogistik AG provides machinery and equipment transport services throughout Switzerland and, if needed, internationally as well. Our locations in Weinfelden (Canton of Thurgau), Arbon (Canton of Thurgau), and Wangen (Canton of Schwyz) allow us to reach industrial companies in Eastern Switzerland, Zurich, Central Switzerland, and the Lake Constance region quickly and easily. We carry out projects outside these regions throughout Switzerland and, if necessary, internationally.
From moving a single machine to a complete production relocation: We support you in planning and safely implementing your project—throughout Switzerland and internationally.
