We are moving to the MIddle East and unfortunately the employment contract does not include moving our furniture (because they provide furnished rental premises). Does anyone have or know of a place where we can store furniture - about 40 cubic feet worth?

Do you mean cubic metres ?
There are plenty of reasonably-priced storage facilities on the net including several in Oerlikon ...

Yes, you are right, metres I meant. thanks.

I've not used these , but they seemed professional when I was looking for a facility...

They are quoting 490chf/mo+ for 40sqm for a 4.5room typical apartment, which seems like a lot of cash. However, I would consider dismantling whatever you can, as you will be amazed how much smaller that furniture gets...

I had a similar question in the past and got info about a place in Affoltern:

Storage companies in Switzerland


I didn't use their services in the end (threw out/gave away my furniture and stored my possessions at a mate's place) but they might be worth contacting. They do removals so they could pick up your stuff in Vaud and transport it.

If u plan to sell the furniture.I would be interested.My id is shirsendu.basu@credit-suisse.com

Is there something similar located a bit more close to the centre? Duration is 2 months, and I am interested in storing a few medium sized boxes. Total size is probably about 1 cubic metre.
