Furniture storage during a move in Milan

Do you have to leave your old place before the new one is ready? You don't need another mover, you need somewhere to keep your furniture in between. We collect it in Milan, store it safely and bring it back once you can receive it.

When you need storage for a move

  • You have to leave before the new place is ready

    Between handing back the old keys and getting the new ones, your furniture stays with us instead of in a hallway.

  • You're moving in two steps

    A short-term stop — a short let, a family home — doesn't fit everything: what you don't need now goes into storage.

  • You're moving abroad for a while

    You don't pack your life into a suitcase: your furniture waits for your return to Milan.

  • The new home is still being renovated

    Move out of the old place anyway: we furnish the storage unit, not the building site.

How it works

  1. 1. You book online

    Choose how many square metres you need and the pickup date from your old home. The quote is exact before you pay.

  2. 2. We collect at your door

    We come to your place in Milan to load your furniture, including bulky items that don't fit in a box.

  3. 3. We keep it safe for as long as it takes

    It stays in an indoor, dry, access-controlled facility for the whole time between the two homes.

  4. 4. We deliver it to your new home

    When you're ready, we bring everything to the address you give us, within the municipality of Milan.

What you can store

Allowed

  • Furniture

    Sofas, wardrobes, beds, tables and bookcases, disassembled for the move if needed.

  • Mains-powered appliances

    Washing machine, fridge, hair straightener or dryer, as long as they run without a battery.

  • Boxes with your belongings

    Books, clothes, dishes: anything you pack into a box.

Not allowed

Battery-powered items, money and valuables, original documents, food and liquids, and fragile or hazardous items are not included. If in doubt, ask us before booking the pickup.

How much it costs

You pay a fixed monthly rate based on the square metres you take up, plus a one-off pickup and transport charge at the start. If you commit to more months, the discount applies to the pickup, not the rate. The exact figure is in your quote, before you book.

Furniture storage during a move FAQ

Can I extend storage if the new home is delayed?

Yes. The rate covers the period you choose, and you can extend it from your account until you're ready for delivery.

Can you deliver to a different address than the pickup?

Yes, we deliver to whichever address you give us within the municipality of Milan, even if it's different from where we collected.

What can't I store during a move?

The same rules as every Smoves storage: no battery-powered items, cash or valuables, original documents, food and liquids, or fragile or hazardous items. If you have a doubtful item, ask us before booking the pickup.
