01 / The route

The journey from Milan to Berlin

The survey, including by video, establishes the inventory, volume and protection needed for the road journey. Planning can involve the relocation contact and management of the destination building.

  • The survey assesses furniture, volume, fragile items and any dismantling required.
  • Collection and delivery dates are coordinated with the availability of both homes.
02

Traditional Altbau buildings, courtyards and modern developments

  • Prenzlauer Berg and Mitte: check stairs, lifts and the sequence of internal courtyards, known as Hinterhöfe.
  • Kreuzberg: assess actual access to lofts and apartments, especially for bulky furniture.
  • Mediaspree and Charlottenburg: agree unloading arrangements and protection of shared areas with the building manager.
03

Packing and inventory

Protection is chosen according to the materials, fragility and transport route. Custom crates and specialist packing are considered for artwork, glass and delicate items.

  • List the belongings to be transported and identify any particularly valuable items.
  • Label packages and keep the components of dismantled furniture together.
04

Documents, parking and permits

Before departure, we check environmental access rules and any Halteverbotszone for loading and unloading. Building management confirms permitted hours and the use of lifts or courtyards; an external furniture lift is not automatically available.

05

Delivery, assembly and storage between homes

Assembly and adaptations to kitchens, walk-in wardrobes and bookcases can be assessed using measurements of the new rooms. Additional work must be described in the quote.

If your new home is not ready, you can request furniture storage in Milan. The storage period, conditions and subsequent delivery are agreed before collection.

06

A quote tailored to the route

Send the addresses, preferred dates and photographs or an inventory of your furniture. The quote should specify the work included and any services provided by local partners.

  • Required transport, packing, dismantling and assembly.
  • Any shuttle vehicles, furniture lifts, permits and storage charges.
  • Applicable cover, limits, excesses and exclusions to check in the service documents.
Helpful answers

Before you move,
let’s make things clear.

How do you manage an Altbau building with narrow stairs?

We measure stairs, doors and windows. We then assess whether dismantled furniture can pass through or whether an external furniture lift can be used, where feasible and authorised.

Can the survey take place by video call?

You can request an initial video assessment by providing images of your furniture and access points. Any technical details that remain unclear must be checked before confirmation.

Can I also request furniture dismantling?

Yes, dismantling and reassembly can be agreed in the quote. Bespoke furniture or alterations require photographs, measurements and a technical assessment.

What if my new home is not ready?

We can assess furniture storage in Milan and schedule delivery for a later date, agreeing the duration, conditions and costs.

What affects the price of a move?

It depends on volume, transport method, access, packing, assembly and additional services. The quotation follows an assessment of your specific move.
