Relocation Agent
Tap a star to rate
Relocation Agent is a relocation service provider operating under ABC Translation. The firm describes itself as offering "comprehensive relocation support for individuals and families moving to Switzerland" with services including finding accommodation, logistics planning, and administrative support. The site lists three languages: English, German and French. The firm advertises 24/7 availability at the phone number 0041 78.632.30.50 and an email contact at info@dr-immobilier.ch.
Limited public information and what that means
Relocation Agent's web presence is minimal. The site shows a header naming the firm and its parent company, ABC Translation, and provides contact details. The site itself renders with almost no descriptive content, showing only a phone number, email address and statement that the firm operates around the clock, seven days a week. A visitor to relocation-agent.ch will find no description of what the firm does, how it charges, who runs it, how long it has been in business, or what outcomes previous clients have achieved. The firm does not list team members, publish testimonials, describe its home-search process, explain how it handles immigration paperwork, or outline pricing.
This minimalism is not necessarily a weakness. It may reflect a deliberate choice by a small firm to rely on word-of-mouth and direct communication rather than detailed web marketing. It may also reflect the reality that relocation assistance is usually commissioned through a specific introduction or request, not through browsing a directory. Many Swiss professional services firms (lawyers, accountants, translators) maintain modest websites precisely because their clients come through established professional networks rather than search.
What the firm is and what it offers
The firm is owned or operated by ABC Translation, a company that specializes in language services. The connection between translation services and relocation services is not obvious from the site. However, translation and relocation do naturally pair in one scenario: a family or professional relocating to Switzerland but not yet fluent in any of the country's four official languages might need translation help for official documents (diplomas, birth certificates, employment contracts), communication with authorities, and navigation of multilingual cantons. A translation company positioned to handle immigration paperwork could plausibly expand into full relocation coordination, since the same paperwork requirements, official contacts, and legal processes are central to both services.
The firm promises "comprehensive relocation support," which on the evidence of other relocation firms in this market typically includes some combination of housing search, work permit assistance, banking and insurance setup, school placement for children, moving logistics, and orientation. The firm's stated services (finding accommodation, logistics planning and administrative support) align with this standard menu. Finding accommodation suggests searching for permanent housing, negotiating with landlords, and potentially managing temporary housing while a permanent lease is arranged. Logistics planning suggests coordinating the physical move of household goods, navigating customs requirements for imported belongings, and managing the timeline so that accommodation, permits and moving trucks all align. Administrative support suggests helping with the Swiss bureaucracy of municipal registration, residence permits, tax identification, and other official procedures that are opaque to newcomers.
The firm's 24/7 availability (24/24, 7/7 in the local phrasing) is notable. Most relocation firms list business hours; promising round-the-clock availability could mean the firm serves multiple time zones, operates a phone-based emergency line for clients mid-move, or positions itself as ready to respond whenever a client calls, though the actual response time may vary. Without detail on the site, it is impossible to know which.
The relationship to ABC Translation
The firm operates "By ABC Translation," a language services company. The email (info@dr-immobilier.ch, with "dr-immobilier" meaning real estate specialist) suggests the firm may operate under multiple brands while sharing infrastructure. Language services and real estate do intersect in relocations: a newcomer needs translation help for lease negotiation, official communications arrive in regional languages, and a firm combining translation expertise with real estate connections could bridge language barriers effectively.
Contact and availability
The phone number 0041 78.632.30.50 is a Swiss mobile number, not a landline or office number, which suggests the firm may be small, partly distributed, or deliberately positioned for mobile-first client contact. The email (info@dr-immobilier.ch) uses a domain distinct from relocation-agent.ch, which reinforces the sense that the firm operates under multiple brands or shares infrastructure with another entity.
The 24/7 claim is the strongest service commitment the site makes. Anyone moving to Switzerland on short notice, in a weekend, or across a time zone incompatible with Swiss business hours could value that availability. Whether it means someone actually answers the phone within an hour, within hours, or by the next business day is not specified. A firm operating under a translation parent company might offer global time-zone coverage if the translation team extends across Europe or beyond.
What is not known
The site publishes no pricing. There is no statement of scope: whether the firm handles corporate relocations or only individuals, whether it covers single-person moves or only families, whether it has geographic limits within Switzerland or serves the entire country. There is no team list, biography of a founder, years in business, client count or satisfaction rate. There are no testimonials, case studies, or portfolio of completed relocations. There is no description of how the firm charges (flat fee, hourly rate, commission on housing, or combination). There is no explanation of what the firm does versus what clients must do themselves, or what happens if plans change after a relocation is underway.
The absence of these details is remarkable compared to other relocation firms in the market. Most Swiss relocation services, even small ones, publish at least a biography of the founder, a description of the home-search process, a client testimonial or two, and ballpark pricing or a fee structure. Relocation Agent offers none of these.
A firm for clients with a direct connection
Relocation Agent is most likely to be useful to someone who already knows about the firm through a personal introduction, a past client, or a professional recommendation from a translator, immigration lawyer, or real estate agent. The minimal web presence suggests the firm does not spend marketing effort on search-engine visibility or cold leads from directories. It positions itself for direct phone and email contact, with the 24/7 promise suggesting it takes calls as they come.
The ABC Translation connection could be a credential in disguise: if the translation firm has a good reputation in Switzerland or with international relocators, a move by ABC Translation into relocation services under that brand may be well-regarded by people already in professional networks. Clients within those networks would know the firm's track record without needing to read a website.
For someone discovering Relocation Agent through this directory with no other context, the lack of detail makes it impossible to assess whether the firm is right for a specific relocation. There is no way to compare pricing against competitors, no public evidence of the team's expertise, and no testimonials to suggest what an engagement would look like. A person in that position would need to call the firm directly and ask the detailed questions the website does not answer. That is presumably the model: direct conversation replaces web marketing.
The 24/7 availability is real and differentiating. For someone relocating on an urgent timeline, or in a different time zone, the ability to reach a relocation service at any hour may be valuable enough to overcome the lack of public detail. For others, the minimal information will be frustrating, and they will prefer a relocation firm that publishes pricing, team bios, and client outcomes on its website.
