Need advice: managing internet and electricity while subletting during a move

Hello everyone,

I’m currently looking for a new flat in Berlin, but most apartments are available within less than a month. The problem is that my current apartment has a 2–3 month notice period, so I may need to overlap apartments for a while and sublease my current one.

What I’m struggling to understand is how people usually handle electricity and internet in this situation.

If I sublease my current flat, I would probably need to keep electricity and internet running there for the subtenant. But at the same time, I would also need electricity and internet in the new apartment.

How do people usually manage this in Germany?

Do people get short-term/mobile internet and electricity solutions during the overlap period? If so, do you know any providers or options that could work temporarily?

Any advice or personal experiences would be really appreciated 🙏
