What size Self Storage unit do I need?

I usually recommend you get the next size up from what you think you need. We could squeeze it in, but then you have no room for air flow (mold loves a tight storage unit) . 3,4 rooms about 10*15 or 10*20, 5 rooms with garage and basement about 10*30

Self Storage, Appliances, and Mold

Clean your appliances, especially the refrigerator, freezer and stove,  before you store them. Bacteria and mold are the enemies, don’t feed them!

Plastic and Self Storage

In general, don’t cover your belongings with plastic – moisture can build up on the furniture side of the plastic (think of window moisture in the mornings)  and that could lead to mildew and mold. We use paper pads and mattress cartons when we can.

Last minute moves mean heartaches and disappointments

Start planning your move at least 6 weeks in advance. If you wait till the last minute your choice of movers will generally be poor and your price options limited.

Hire your moving company once!

It is always cheaper to move directly to the new house or apartment. Storage adds a second move plus the storage charges.

Moving Tip – Water for your moving crew

It is hard, hot work we do. I always appreciated it when the customer had water for me and the crew.

Moving Tip -when to book your mover

Book your moving company as soon as you know the closing date. Movers typically book up early for the last few days of the month, the 15th, and Saturdays!

Moving Swingsets

Movers can usually move the swing set for you. Save money by taking it apart. (3 large pieces is OK. “A” frame, beam, and tower). If it is very involved, ask us about a professional service to do it for you

Moving tip for Seniors

When the packing crew comes, they tend to pack everything. Although we never want to pack medications, it has happened inadvertently. Keep all medications in a safe place.

Moving tip – Modesty 2

Remember to check under the mattress before the movers come. Please remind the “teens” in the house that the movers will be taking the beds apart and moving the dressers.
