Η moving apartment in Thessaloniki can be made much simpler when you have a proper plan, a clear picture of the access to the building and a realistic to-do list. Below is a handy guide (especially for renters) to organize packing, moving and delivery without stress.
Quick checklist (checklist)
- Book date and confirm moving times with management.
- Measure large items (sofa, fridge) and check elevator/stairwell.
- Designate a parking spot for loading/unloading and see if a permit is required.
- Pack by room, with labels and an «essentials box».
- Take a photo of the condition of the apartment (useful when renting).
Before moving: planning 3-4 weeks in advance
To avoid delays, start early with a to-do list. Even in a «small» move, spreading out tasks over days reduces the risk of forgetting something critical.
Coordination with the management of the building
- Elevator: Ask if you need a reservation, protection (blankets/blankets) or specific hours of use.
- Common areas: Plan a route for large objects to avoid damage.
- Entrance/Gateway: Check if the vehicle can be approached for safe loading.
Tip: If you are a tenant, keep a copy of the rental agreement and arrange for key delivery/clock counting in good time.
Packing without chaos: practical steps
Packing by room and correct labelling
- Use same size boxes as much as possible for more stable stacking.
- Write on each box Room + content (e.g. «Kitchen - glasses»).
- Do not overload: heavy (books) in small boxes, light ones in larger ones.
Fragile and electronic
For glass/porcelain and appliances, fill the gaps in the box (so that the object does not «play») and protect the corners. For TVs/screens, prefer the original box or special packaging.
Access and parking on the day of the move
In many neighborhoods of Thessaloniki, the difficult part is not the packing but the secure access and the parking for loading/unloading. If temporary occupation of a site is required (e.g. on a narrow street), a permit may be required from the municipality. Procedures vary by area, so check well in advance.
- Leave a «corridor» for people/objects to pass without obstacles.
- Keep valuables/fragile items (documents, jewellery, laptop) close by.
- If access is difficult (balcony, large furniture), consider a solution with lifting equipment.
