Storage for When You Are Moving House

A move is often associated with a number of challenges, especially when it comes to transporting all of your belongings from one place to another. Whether you need an interim storage for your items until the initial moving stress subsides, whether you want to stow away a few small items in a compact box, or whether you are moving in with your partner and need to temporarily part with some of your things – at MyPlace, we have the ideal storage solution for you.

6 Tips for Storing During a Move

Here are some tips to make storage as simple and stress-free as possible during a move:

1. Start Planning Early: Start planning your move and storage early. Consider which items you want to get rid of and which you want to store temporarily. A reduced number of items means easier transport and a smaller and more affordable storage space.
2. Choose the Right Storage Size: Estimate the space needed for the items you're storing. Our convenient storage space calculator makes this particularly easy. Choose a storage size that suits your needs to avoid unnecessary costs – our experienced team is happy to help you find the right unit.
3. Clean and Wrap Items: Clean and carefully pack your books, clothes, and other items before storing them. Protect delicate furniture with proper packaging: blankets or specialized furniture wraps work well to prevent scratches and damages. Disassemble large pieces to save space and make them easier to transport.
4. Label Boxes: Clearly label all boxes and containers for quick access to your items.
5. Create an Inventory List: Make an inventory list explaining which items are in which boxes. This will help you organize and locate your belongings after the move.
6. Check Transport Options: Review your options for transporting your household items from your home to the storage unit. Is your car too small to accommodate all of your belongings? Do you need  help carrying boxes, furniture and more? Then take advantage of MyPlace's moving assistance.

Good planning and organization allow for a smooth transition period and make the initial time in your new home easier. MyPlace is here to support you: thanks to flexible rental periods starting from a minimum of 2 weeks, you can store your items for as long as you want to.
