Key handovers and moving in Milan: managing dates that do not match
Prepare the program between the two houses →
If you must leave your old home before entering the new one, distinguish confirmed dates, provisional plans and possible storage when arranging your move.
A scheduled date is not a confirmed date
The availability of the new home can depend on the delivery of keys, fine works or other activities independent of the transport. In the calendar, the confirmed and yet indicative commitments are separately marked. Do not communicate a prediction as a certainty to get a faster booking. Knowing that a date is temporary allows you to evaluate alternatives and conditions; discover it when the load is ready can change the whole program.
The case of the two different days
If you have to leave the house on Friday but you can enter the new only the next week, it is not a simple direct transport. It is necessary to organize the intermediate period of goods and that of persons. The furniture store does not automatically include a solution for items you need every day. Prepare a personal baggage suitable for the range and locate what you do not want to make temporarily unavailable.
What to ask about the intermediate deposit
Ask how the entrance, stay and return are organized, what activities are included and how to manage a possible extension. A second transport and a new assembly phase should not be given for discount in the initial price. The list of goods must remain connected to the request, so the content of the deposit is clear. Indicate if you may need to withdraw an object before others: the possibility must be verified.
Update everyone with the same message
When changing the date, send a written summary to the interested referents and ask for confirmation of the new organization. Specifies what remains unchanged and what needs to be reassessed, for example team availability or access to the condominium. Do not consider an informal message equivalent to a new confirmation of service. Keep up-to-date versions of essential information by avoiding parallel calendars with different times.
It also prepares a list of objects that must remain accessible during the range: working material, documents, clothes and children’s equipment. If these assets end up in the deposit group, recovering them may require a separate operation. The selection must be made before the load, clearly indicating which hills will travel with you and which will enter the agreed service.
Preparing actual delivery
Before planning the return, check that the property is accessible and ready to receive the furniture. Check free rooms, planned installation and presence of the contact person. The availability of the only keys does not show that the environments are usable. To ask for an evaluation at DUDA indicates both the dates and the expected time distance, declaring the items to be confirmed. This clarity helps to distinguish move direct and transfer into multiple stages.
