More on snow clearing serviceWhat applies in Siebnen
The municipal works clear in three priorities: main routes and public transport roads first, then residential streets and car parks, and remaining pavements last. Roads with a gradient above 6 per cent are salted first. Private driveways and house entrances remain the owner responsibility.
The municipality spans 410 to 1879 metres above sea level. In winter, the lowest and the highest address can mean two entirely different working days.
The Siebnen village district has its own core-zone building regulations, meaning the historic townscape in the centre is under protection.
Siebnen is one village by postcode but is split across three municipalities politically: Galgenen, Schübelbach and Wangen SZ.

Every month end except 31 December is a customary termination date. Handovers are therefore spread across the whole year.
Worth knowing for Siebnen
Access and parking
Because of the Innerdorf development, the former one-way section of Eisenburgstrasse in Siebnen has been closed to traffic since August 2025 and is expected to stay closed until the end of 2027. Anyone moving in or out in this area has to plan access differently for the duration of the works.
Waste disposal locally
Schübelbach handles household waste through the ZAM waste association for the March district. A pack of ten refuse sacks costs CHF 12.50 (17 litres), CHF 25.– (35 litres) or CHF 43.– (60 litres); a sheet of six bulky-waste stickers covering 5 kilograms each costs CHF 15.–.
Quarters and districts
Locals in Siebnen distinguish areas such as the Marktplatz, the Kreuz on the Galgenen side and the Kapelle on Bahnhofstrasse, along with the former industrial sites Rüttimann (a one-time furniture factory) and Spinnerei (the former Honegger mill). The western part, beyond the Wägitaler Aa river, belongs to the Galgenen district.

Housing market
The Innerdorf development is adding a new residential quarter in the centre of Siebnen: five new buildings with 42 rental flats, roughly 700 square metres of commercial space across four units, and an underground car park with 98 car and 6 motorcycle spaces plus 16 visitor spaces.
Clearing duties in detail
According to the Schübelbach municipal works, salt and grit must not be applied to loose fresh snow deeper than 3 centimetres. Property owners are liable for accidents caused by poorly cleared access ways under Art. 58 CO regardless of fault; in rented buildings the landlord is responsible for the shared access ways and the tenant for their own parking space. The municipality does not clear private driveways automatically. That can only be added for a fee and by prior written agreement.
