# How much does a move in Milan cost?

The cost of moving in Milan depends on volume, access and services. See indicative starting prices and the items to clarify before requesting a quote.

Indicative starting prices, subject to confirmation in a personalised quote. VAT, inclusions, additional services and applicable conditions are specified in the offer.

## Indicative prices by property type

Amounts are indicative and must be confirmed after assessing the move. Floor areas and volumes are examples: two flats of the same size may contain very different quantities of furniture.

| Indicative property type | Approximate volume | Starting price |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Studio flat, up to 35 m² | Approximately 15 m³ | From €900 |
| Two-room flat, 50–60 m² | Approximately 25 m³ | From €1,200 |
| Three-room flat, 80–100 m² | Approximately 40 m³ | From €1,500 |
| Three-bedroom flat, penthouse or villa, from 120 m² | Over 55 m³ | From €2,200 |

## What affects the price

The quote must describe the work actually required. Comparing only the final price is not enough if one proposal includes packing or assembly and another does not.

- Furniture volume and number of packages.

- Distance, floor levels, lifts and the route from the vehicle to the home.

- Packing, dismantling, reassembly and furniture adaptation.

- Dates, any storage and special handling requirements.

## Additional services to consider

These cost indications must be checked for the specific job. Duration, equipment, access conditions and cover may change the price.

| Service | Price indication |
| --- | --- |
| Furniture lift with operator | Approximately €400–€600 |
| Furniture storage | From approximately €200 per month |
| Moving pianos or safes | Approximately €350–700 extra |

## Parking and permits: a cost to clarify

Any occupation of public space depends on the work. Municipal charges and application management must be distinguished in the quote: there is no single amount applicable to every loading and unloading operation.

- Check requirements at both addresses.

- Clarify who submits applications and arranges the required signage.

- Check any vehicle access restrictions and building rules.

## Insurance and comparing offers

Ask what insurance covers the belongings and the work. Read the documents for cover limits, excesses, exclusions and declared value; do not assume the cover is unlimited.

- Compare written proposals based on the same inventory.

- Check inclusions, exclusions and any additional costs.

- Check how changes and damage reports are handled.

## From guide prices to your quotation

Send photographs or an inventory, addresses, floor levels and preferred dates. A survey helps assess difficult passages and distinguish essential from optional work.

## Before you move, let’s make things clear.

### What is the indicative cost of moving a one-bedroom flat in Milan?

The starting indication is €1,200, subject to confirmation based on volume, access and services. It is not a fixed price for every one-bedroom flat.

### Is the furniture lift always included in the price?

This must be checked in the quote. The €400–600 indication is a guide and depends on the specific use of the vehicle with an operator.

### Why is floor area not enough?

Transport is based on the actual volume of furniture and boxes. Access, distance, packing and assembly also affect the work.

### How much does furniture storage cost?

The indicative starting price is around €200 per month, subject to the quantity of belongings, duration and service terms.

### Do permits cost the same for everyone?

No. The charges applicable to the specific public space occupation must be distinguished from permit administration services, with each item shown in the quote.
