We had heard horror stories about Italian bureaucracy. Most of them turned out to be exaggerated. Survey on a Tuesday, written quote on the Friday, lorry loaded ten days later, goods in our Chianti farmhouse the following week. Customs cleared at Mont-Blanc. The destination team had measured the strada bianca and brought a smaller truck for the last kilometre.

The Edinburgh-to-Lecce route was the part we worried about most — the longest single move on their network, they told us at survey. The crew handled the tenement-close access without fuss; the Brenner Pass crossing was smooth; the destination team in Lecce knew the comune and had briefed our condominio chair. Codice fiscale arrived from the Italian consulate in London a week before we flew out. Easy.

We had a complicated move — listed-building access in Hampstead, then a Bellagio lakeside villa with concierge clearance and tight access. The team measured everything at survey, planned the Lake Como gated-development entry chain, and the move ran on schedule. The Italian-speaking coordinator briefed our portinaio before move day. We barely had to think about it.

Corporate-relocation move from Manchester to Milan for a banking role. The team handled the HR-side paperwork, the customs side, and the timing around my permesso di soggiorno appointment in Milan. Same crew loaded in Manchester and met me at the Milan flat. Detailed inventory, careful packing, no breakage. Professional throughout.
