# Milan–Zurich removals

We plan your move between Milan and Zurich around your inventory, customs requirements and access to your home. From central streets to hillside areas, each delivery needs its own plan.

## The journey from Milan to Zurich

The road journey to Switzerland is planned alongside the moving documentation. The survey establishes volume, protection and equipment before the quotation is confirmed.

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

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

## City centre, lake and residential areas

- Enge and areas near the lake: check building access and manoeuvring space.

- Zürichberg: consider gradients and property access.

- Paradeplatz and the city centre: assess local restrictions and possible delivery using more compact vehicles.

## 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.

## Documents, parking and permits

Switzerland has a customs procedure for household effects. Form 18.44 and the inventory are among the documents to check; duty-free treatment depends on customs authority requirements. Parking requirements must be checked for the delivery address.

## Delivery, assembly and storage between homes

Reassembly, any adaptations and use of an external lift where access permits must be agreed.

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.

### Does a move to Switzerland require customs clearance?

Yes. The household-goods procedure requires documents and eligibility to be checked. Form 18.44 and an inventory do not, by themselves, guarantee duty-free entry.

### 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.
