I also did transfer money from Fleet in Boston to UBS in CH. The fee was
rather small ($10 if I remember well). To get a better exchange rate, the
money was wired to UBS in NYC and then to CH. It took 3 to 5 days.
You can get a list of UBS branches in the US at the URL

Then call them to ask the information you need (swift, ABA, ...)
I cashed several US checks at UBS in CH, the fee is about 10 CHF.

Hi,
I sent money from my Fleet bank to my Swiss Post account without any
problems. I did that a couple of times and it always worked fine. It
should not be very different to send monet to a swiss bank. All I
needed was the SWIFT number (i found it on the website... )

They charged me 10$ in US, and ~10CHF (i guess i am not sure any more,
but not more) in Switzerland and it took between 3 to 5 business days.
BTW my experience is that - generally speaking - it is cheaper to work
with a swiss post account than with a bank account, just to let you
know !
BR,
- Jerome
