Here in Germany... most tire shops will only charge you ~35 euros to mount your summer/winter tires. You can also leave your "other" tires at the tire shop for a small fee too! This might be your best option.

Knowing how expensive things are in CH, that 35 euro fee could be more like 135 euros. Still it might be worth it to your back.
Have a nice VW dealer in Chicago that does all of my cars for $20 each! (I used to check their torque, but has always been spot on.) They even do a nice job of cleaning up the hubs and putting on anti-seize...
