Sofas and narrow doors: check the moving route
The sofa is often the piece that reveals a problem of access only when the other furniture is already ready. Its structure can be unflexible and external measures do not tell how it should rotate. For a move in a Milanese building with inputs collected, it is advisable to analyze the path of the sofa as a specific activity, both on departure and on arrival.
Detect actual structure and size
Prepare length, depth and height, indicating the presence of pins, penises or separable elements. If you own the manufacturer's card, keep it together with the photographs. Knowing that a component can be disassembled is different from the assumption that it can be removed: some parts are part of the structure and should not be forced.
The images must show the sofa from several sides and, when accessible without risky maneuvers, the configuration of the joints. Mark bed mechanisms, recliner or other elements that can affect weight and handling. The assessment of the eventual dismantling competes with operators, depending on the model and its conditions.
Follow all rotations
A wide door enough can be followed by a corridor too short for rotation. It is therefore necessary to note not only the opening, but also the space before and after. The same applies to the landing and for the entrance of the elevator: it is not enough to know the size of the cabin if the furniture fails to reach it in the necessary position.
A continuous video allows you to better read direction changes. Accompany it with measures clearly associated with the resumed points. It is not useful to send ten photographs without explaining what is first: a simple numbered scheme makes the path understandable and allows you to identify where a site visit is needed.
Check the new home before the withdrawal
The fact that the sofa has entered the present house does not show that it will enter the next one. The new house can have completely different accesses or recent works that have modified the openings. The final room must also be able to accommodate it in the desired position, considering doors, radiators and other furnishings.
If the passage has doubts, it is preferable to clarify them before loading. Any use of external equipment requires a separate evaluation; it should not be treated as a remedy available at any time. Similarly, removing doors or other elements of the building is not a decision to improvise during the service.
Prepare the quote with the right information
In the request to DUDA insert photos and measurements of the sofa, floor, lift, route and complete addresses. Specifies whether the destination is already accessible for a control. If the keys arrive later, declare what is verified and what is derived only from the planimetry: this distinction avoids apparent certainties.
A well-defined programme must indicate the arrangements provided, any disassembly and conditions still to be ascertained. The customer can thus evaluate the service before the mobile is moved. The goal is to preserve the integrity of the furniture and the environments, not to try to force a piece that requires another solution.
