# Milan–Tokyo removals

Milan–Tokyo removals by sea or air, with packing for the journey and coordinated delivery in Japan. We prepare the inventory, documents and access arrangements together.

## The journey from Milan to Tokyo

For furniture, sea freight to Tokyo or Yokohama is assessed; priority goods may be considered for air freight via Narita or Haneda. The contact in Italy coordinates the shipment with local partners.

- The survey assesses furniture, volume, fragile items and any dismantling required.

- Collection and delivery dates are coordinated with the availability of both homes.

## Residential towers and neighbourhood streets

- Roppongi Hills and Azabu-Juban: agree lifts, unloading areas and protection of shared routes with the building manager.

- Omotesando and Setagaya: check road widths and whether delivery with smaller vans is needed.

- In homes with tatami or delicate floors, agree protection and entry arrangements in advance.

## Packing and inventory

For the sea crossing, we assess custom crates and moisture protection. Applicable requirements for packing timber, including ISPM 15, must be checked before preparing the shipment.

- List the belongings to be transported and identify any particularly valuable items.

- Label packages and keep the components of dismantled furniture together.

## Documents, parking and permits

Japan Customs requires a specific declaration for unaccompanied personal effects, also available on form C-5360-B. Procedures linked to the arrival of the person and the shipment must be coordinated in advance: paperwork should not be left until delivery day.

## Delivery, assembly and storage between homes

Unloading, unpacking, reassembly, placement and disposal of packing materials are agreed with our partners in Japan.

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.

## 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.

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

### When is the declaration for Japan prepared?

Before departure, check the procedure for unaccompanied personal effects: some requirements are linked to the traveller’s arrival and are needed for subsequent customs clearance.

### 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.
