I wasn't sure about using Bip&Go in Italy, as we don't need it for Italy, as we are in the North, near Lake Maggiore and don't need to use toll roads there.
(You might like yo look at using the Simplon Pass, rather than the tunnel routes. We alternate between that and the Gotthard route)
One other thing, if you go via Switzerland, (it's the way I go), get the vignette from https://via.admin.ch/shop/dashboard
You only pay for the vignette - no handling or postage charges. You don't get the sticky vignette, just an 'electronic' one. You get it immediately, when you pay online.
Your car reg is put on the Swiss Motorway computers and they use their ANPR cameras check you have the vignette.
Did it for the first time this year - so so easy. I do keep the confirmatory email in the car, as a back up
Bip&Go isn't linked to a vehicle registration. Both I and my son use the same one.
I use one, a Bip&Go in France - one that my son has.
It's simple to use - fix it at the windscreen, or hold it up when approaching the toll booth, and the arm rises as you approach. Use the Telepass booths with a 30 on it and you should be able to drive through at about 25kph.
I'd highly recommend them as you avoid any queueing at the 'pay' booths.
Talk to your neighbours about borrowing ladders - someone is bound to have some.

When I bought my place, about 20 years ago, the Estate Agent accompanied to the Notary and translated for me. He also helped set up Bank Account and Standing Orders for gad electric and water charges.
According to my online translation
"pipemiere" means "pipe smith" - hence my link to possible tobacco pipe making
"pipe miere" means "mine pipes" - hence possible link to mining.
But - who knows?????
