Relocation to Italy
Your reliable partner for Relocation to Italy. Koch Umzugslogistik – for 125 years.
For decades, Italy has attracted German emigrants – whether for work in Milan, life in Tuscany or retirement on Lake Como. Koch Umzugslogistik organises your move to Italy by specialised truck along the Alpine routes. Depending on the destination, your furniture arrives within 3–6 days.

Italian old towns with their narrow streets call for experience – we know the challenges and plan the final mile accordingly, often with smaller vehicles or lifts. As an EU member, there are no customs formalities. On request, we help you apply for the Codice Fiscale and register with your new Italian municipality.
