Renting furnitureFor a lease shorter than the furniture pays backA two-year posting rarely justifies buying a sofa. Who rents furniture by the month in Shanghai, what a package typically covers, how delivery and pickup work at the end of a lease, and the deposit terms that catch people out.すべてのエリア
Buying furnitureIKEA, the Yiwu-style markets, and what ships to a compoundWhere people actually buy: the IKEA stores and their delivery windows, the furniture markets worth the trip, online with English-capable sellers, and the practical constraint nobody mentions — lift dimensions and whether the compound allows deliveries at the weekend.すべてのエリア
Appliances that matter hereDryers, dishwashers, water filters, air purifiersFour appliances that are standard back home and often missing here. What to check at the viewing, what a landlord will usually add if you ask before signing, and what you end up buying yourself.すべてのエリア
Moving inInternational shipping, local movers, compound rulesThe international shipment and the local move are different problems. Customs on a household shipment, movers who work in English, and the compound-side rules that decide your move-in day — lift booking, permitted hours, and the deposit some estates hold against damage.すべてのエリア- 家具とグリーン家具レンタル、内見で乾燥機、回線契約の多くは家具なし。ベッドは借りる。乾燥機は内見で聞く。回線は別契約。IKEAは机を埋める。西洋マットレスは埋まらない。すべてのエリア

Useful resources for settling in
EnglishMoving and home finding: check what is included
Crown’s Shanghai office page lists packing, shipping, storage and home finding among its services. If your employer has assigned a relocation provider, use its service description to check which parts of the move are covered.
Ask who handles the housing search, arrival orientation and shipment, and which items require a separate quotation.
Water and air equipment in a rented home
Greenwave advertises home visits, water testing and purifier rental in Shanghai, including rented apartments. Its FAQ says some installations can avoid permanent plumbing changes. The suitable installation still depends on the apartment.
Agree with the landlord on installation, filter replacement, removal and restoration costs before ordering.
