Uber/Taxi from Zurich Airport for 4 people+8 bags

Short summary – read this first

A family of four is planning a stop in Switzerland on their way back to the USA from India. They want to know if they can get a van taxi at Zurich Airport that can fit all their luggage and people, or if they would need to arrange for two taxis instead. Renting Zebra Self Storage for a week is their preferred option to save on luggage fees.

Key takeaways:
  • Consider taking the local tram Line 10 from the airport to the Zebra Self Storage, as it might be cheaper than a taxi and can accommodate large luggage easily.
  • Check the Zebra website for nearby storage locations to find the most convenient one.
  • If you require a van taxi, book in advance to ensure availability for your larger group and luggage.

    We will be stopping in Switzerland while returning to USA from India. We are family of 4 and will most probably carry 4 check in suitcase and 4 carry on luggage. It looks like it will be cheaper to rent Zerba Self Storage for 1 week rather than storing 4 suitcase at the airport. But we will need transportation to carry the bags to Zebra and the back. My question is : Is it possible to get a VAN as Taxi that can fit 4 large and 4 small luggage along with 4 people at Zurich Airport or will we have to get 2 Taxi ??

    Thanks in advance.

    One of the Zebra Boxes is close to the airport. If it is that one, you might find it even cheaper to take the local tram (streetcar) Line 10. It runs from just outside the airport terminal (by the bus terminal) – a short 8 stop ride. The vehicles are spacious enough to walk largish items of baggage onto.

    I doubt it would entail much more walking than to and from a taxi
