When furniture storage makes sense
Not everything fits in the new home, and not everything is ready on the same day. Temporary storage of furniture and household goods solves practical problems that would otherwise cost time, money and nerves. Here is when it pays off.
Renovation or works at home
When you paint, replace floors or renovate the kitchen, furniture gets in the way and is exposed to dust and knocks. A few weeks in storage lets the tradesmen work faster and the furniture returns clean to the finished home.
A move in two stages
Often the old home has to be handed over before the new one is ready. Instead of two moves with friends and borrowed garages, we collect your belongings, store them as long as needed and deliver them to the new address when you are ready.
A smaller home or a move abroad
Furniture with sentimental value, seasonal items or things you will need again in a year do not have to be sold in a hurry. Storage gives you time to decide.
What to check in a storage facility
- An enclosed, watertight and guarded space, not an outdoor container.
- Furniture is wrapped and placed on pallets, off the floor.
- An inventory list and access if you need something.
- Insurance cover and a clear monthly price.
