Are you about to face an apartment removal and the thought of boxes, bureaucracy, and unexpected costs keeps you awake? We know that a move, especially for an entire apartment, can quickly turn into a labyrinth of uncertainties: how to pack everything without damage? How much will it really cost? Who will handle ZTL permits or transport to a high floor?
This guide is your map to serenely navigate every phase of your apartment removal. We will show you how to transform complexity into a clear, planned process with defined costs from the very first quote. In the end, you'll know exactly what to expect and how to achieve the peace of mind you deserve.
Beyond Boxes: Why a Planned Removal is Your Best Investment
A removal is not simply moving objects from point A to point B. It's a moment of great change, the beginning of a new phase of your life or business. For this reason, the real challenge is not just logistics, but the ability to ensure that this transition happens with maximum serenity and security.
Entrusting professionals means investing in your peace of mind. It means knowing that your items of sentimental value, lifelong furniture, or business equipment will be treated with the care they deserve, protected by professional packing and handled by expert hands. A well-planned removal is the first step to starting your new life stress-free, focusing on what truly matters.
Your Apartment Removal Map: Key Factors and Cost Transparency
Clarity is our mantra. To offer you a detailed, no-surprise quote for your apartment removal, we carefully consider several factors. Understanding these elements will give you a sense of control and help you plan effectively:
- Volume and Distance: The calculation of the volume in m³ of goods to be transported and the distance between the two homes are the pillars of the cost. A free on-site survey allows us to accurately estimate this data, avoiding surprises.
- Access and Logistics: The presence of high floors, the absence of elevators, or the need for special permits (such as ZTL permits for access to limited traffic areas) influence the complexity and timing of the removal.
- Additional Services: Do you need furniture dismantling and reassembly? Do you want a professional packing service for all your belongings, including fragile ones? Do you need temporary furniture storage? Every extra service is quoted transparently.
- Special Items: The transport of large or particularly valuable items (such as a piano, works of art, or safes) requires specific equipment and techniques, which are evaluated separately.
Every item in our quote is clear and justified, because we believe that transparency is the foundation of trust.
The Antidote to Worries: How to Avoid the Risks of DIY and Vague Quotes
The market is full of "too good to be true" offers. An excessively low quote for an apartment removal can hide pitfalls: undeclared extra costs, unqualified staff, lack of insurance, or unacceptable delays.

Frequently Asked Questions about Apartment Removals
We know you have questions, and that's perfectly fine. Here are the answers to some of the most common ones:
How far in advance should I request a quote for my apartment removal?
We recommend requesting it at least 4-6 weeks in advance, especially if it's during a peak season. This allows us to best organize the free on-site survey and guarantee availability.
Does the insurance cover all types of damage during transport?
Yes, our all-risk insurance covers all transported goods against any risk of damage or loss, from the moment of collection until delivery. Coverage details are always specified in the quote.
Do I have to pack everything myself, or do you offer a complete service?
We offer a complete "turnkey" service that includes professional packing of all your belongings, furniture dismantling and reassembly, transport, and repositioning. You can choose the level of service you prefer.
What happens if there are access issues to the apartment (e.g., high floor without a lift)?
During the on-site survey, we carefully assess access conditions. If necessary, we will use special equipment such as external lifts or aerial ladders, also managing ZTL permits or public land occupation. Everything will be included in the initial quote.
Is it possible to request temporary storage for my furniture?
Absolutely. If you need a transition period between your old and new home, we offer a secure and climate-controlled furniture storage service, for short or long periods, with maximum flexibility.
