Short-Term Storage for Furniture

Short-term storage is generally defined as storage for three months or less. Renting a temporary storage space for your furniture is especially a popular choice when it comes to moving.

People sometimes need a temporary place to store their stuff for many different reasons:

  • The gap
    During a house move there is often a gap between selling your old home and moving into your new home. Short-term storage is the perfect solution for your temporary lack of space.
  • Renovation
    If you are planning to renovate your home, you should store your furniture beforehand just to keep your furniture safe and out of the way whilst decorating, deep-cleaning carpets or during the actual construction.
  • Decluttering
    Minimizing clutter is one of the main reasons why people rent short-term units. For example, when you are selling your house, you want your house to look tidy and spacious for the potential buyers. However, the reality is that you often don’t have enough space to temporarily hide all those items that you don’t want them to see. Renting short-term storage for your furniture is definitely one of the best ways to free your house from unnecessary clutter.

Whether you are moving to a new location, trying to reduce clutter or planning a home renovation, our team of professional removalists will pick up your furniture and safely transport them to our secured storage facility. On top of that, our friendly customer support team is standing by for any questions or needs you may have about storage units near you.

  • Children going to college
    By the time your children have grown up, it is time for them to go to college.  If your children are going to a boarding school, as a parent, you might want to store their items since they are not going to be home for a period of time so that you could have some extra space to use. Pick the long-term storage company that you can trust, and you can rest easy knowing that your items are in good hands!
  • Seasonal furniture
    You may want to give your house and your life a little breathe by having an extra seating area. How do you do it?  The best way is to store your seasonal furniture and equipment in the storage so that you could have enough space to place a longer sofa that you can sleep and jump on.

Storage of Furniture – Do not make these mistakes

Are you holding on to antique family heirlooms that don’t fit your modern décor? Do you have cribs and baby furniture you are waiting to pass down to your children? You’re not alone. Lots of homeowners have furniture cluttering up their space. Furniture storage can help you reclaim yours. If you are choosing to store your furniture though, make sure you follow the proper steps for preservation.

  1. Choose the right storage option for you
    If you want to be sure your furniture is in the same condition when you retrieve it from storage as it was when you put it in, you definitely want to rent with a professional storage company. This should most certainly be considered if your furniture will be stored for a lengthy period of time. A climate-controlled unit is the best way to ensure your furniture stays safe from moisture and changing temperatures.  Leather, for instance, is susceptible to cracking and peeling in extreme heat or dryness. Excessive humidity and dampness can contribute to mold and pest infestation. Wood that’s stored in unstable temperature conditions can crack, swell or shrink, causing glued joints to loosen.
  2. Clean
    Never ever put dirty items inside your unit. Doing so will raise your chances of mold and item deterioration.
    Begin by wiping down your pieces with a fresh cloth. Then, for plastic furniture, use mild soap and water. For wooden pieces (especially antiques), use a wood cleaner to protect the existing finish on the wood. Or you can apply paste furniture wax to the wood with a soft cotton cloth. Be sure to also clean fabric items like couches or seat cushions with fabric or upholstery cleaner. Check that everything is completely dry before you start packing it up. Patches of trapped moisture can damage your item over time, and create marks of discoloration.
    Polish any metal with a polishing cloth and metal cleaner. This step will help remove any existing oxidation and delay the build-up of tarnish.
  3. Disassemble your pieces
    Take any larger furniture pieces apart before moving them. Remove legs from tables and sofas, take out drawers from dressers and cushions from couches, and remove planks from bedframes. Pack and label everything to stay organized. Put all screws, bolts, Allen wrenches, and other small items in a labeled baggie, and attach the baggie to the furniture it belongs to. This extra step will make it easier to pack and it will also reduce the likelihood of anything breaking or getting damaged.
  4. Wrap it up
    Never put furniture into a storage unit uncovered. Use old sheets, blankets, drop cloths, or plastic wrap to cover the pieces and protect them from dust and moisture. Wrap furniture so that it can breathe by loosely draping the material over the furniture. One thing you’ll want to avoid is shrink-wrapping your furniture. Shrink-wrap can trap moisture and even melt in the heat, sticking to and ruining the surface of your furniture. Plastic shrink wrap should not be used on wood or leather in any circumstances. The slightest bit of condensation can cause damage to leather or finished wood surfaces. Even during a brief move, wood and leather furniture should be wrapped in moving blankets or packing paper instead of plastic shrink wrap or bubble wrap.
  5. Protect your glass
    ​Glass items – like tabletops and mirrors – require extra careful packing. Wrap all glass with packing paper. Then, cover the glass in bubble wrap or put the entire item into its own box.
  6. Smart storage
    Make sure your storage unit is large enough that you can leave space in between items. This allows air to flow freely between the furniture, helping to protect items from damage. It also makes it easier to remove items when you need to retrieve them. Be sure to leave all furniture at least 4-6 inches away from the walls, preventing contact with any condensation that runs down the wall of your unit. Store items like couches in their proper position whenever possible to prevent structural damage. Do not rest them on their sides to save space. Also, never place any items on top of your couch during storage. And keep items like paint or chemicals – which could damage the couch one contact – away.
  7. Raise furniture off the floor
    Add a layer of protection against flooding by storing furniture on anything other than the floor. Even if there is no flooding, moisture tends to leach from concrete and can cause wood to swell or rot. Pallets, cinder blocks, or even a layer of cardboard or drop cloth is recommended.
  8. Beware of perishables It is a major no-no to leave anything perishable in your storage facility. This goes for cardboard boxes you may have collected from a supermarket. Remember, those boxes may have pest eggs inside them. The last thing you want is bugs or critters in your storage space.
