If your household goods need to be put into storage
for any length of time, a storage company may provide such storage services.
Ask your movers and have them prepare a quote. Even if it costs extra to use
their service, it may be worth the extra amount for the convenience of having
your storing and moving companies deliver your items directly from your home to
the storage facility.
Things to
Consider
Location.
If you are going to need daily access to your stored items, you will surely
want to choose a facility that is nearby and easily accessible. However, if you
will be storing items in which you know you will not need frequent access to,
location may not be that important to you. In this case, you may need to
consider other factors.
Items.
Storing and moving items such as wine, boats and vehicles all require special
storage services. Or if you're storing valuable papers, you may want to ask
about climate-control facilities. Just keep in mind that climate-control
storage costs more, but will prevent temperature changes from damaging your
belongings. So, determine which items will be stored, take inventory, make a
list and have this information ready when you start calling companies.
Security.
To safeguard your stored goods and avoid the cost of replacing stolen items,
you always should be thorough when searching for storage services. Before
booking a facility, review all of the listed security features, call the
manager if you need any clarification and, if possible, visit the facility in
person. If you’re able to schedule a visit and take a tour, making sure the
indoor and outdoor areas of the property are well-lit. It is also recommended
to ask the manager whether the facility has an established relationship with
the local police department and inquiring about how frequently police monitor
the area.
Lease.
Lastly, look for a lease that’s easy to understand and make sure you understand
the terms and conditions which includes how much notice the company requires
when you want to end your term.
