Storage unit moving help
Moving into storage, out of storage, or from one unit to another. Movewise does the heavy carrying so you are not spending a weekend at the storage place.
Moving into a storage unit
We load the unit so it is easy to use later. The things you will not need for a while go in the back, the things you will want first go near the door, and we leave a walkway if there is room.
Furniture gets stood up or stacked safely, and boxes go heaviest on the bottom so the stacks do not crush.
Moving out of a storage unit
Emptying a unit into a truck is the same job as moving out of a house: we plan the load, pack it tight and unload it at the new place.
Between homes
If your closing dates do not line up, we can load the truck at your old place, unload into storage, and bring it all back out when you are ready.
Have this ready when you ask for a price

And the storage place hours, if they close early.
Questions
Do you rent storage units?
No. You rent the unit and the truck, and we do the loading and unloading.
Can you help at a climate-controlled building with an elevator?
Yes. Tell us the floor and whether there is a cart or a loading dock, so we plan the time.
Can you load my storage unit and my truck on the same day?
Yes. Many jobs are the truck at the house and the unit on the same trip.
What size unit do I need?
It depends how much you have and how tightly it is stacked. Tell us the size of your home when you ask for a price and we can help you pick.
