Why Use Storage When Moving House?

Declutter Before the Move

  • Self storage for moving home helps out in two ways. Firstly, clearing out non-essential items before you list your property helps it look its best to potential buyers.

Manage Delays and Gaps Between Moves

  • If your move-out and move-in dates don’t match, temporary storage between moves offers a safe way to keep your belongings in an accessible location until your new home is ready.

Renovate Without the Mess

  • Using Wigwam furniture storage for moving keeps sofas, tables and appliances clean and damage-free while you update your property. This is helpful both before and after a move.

Reduce Moving Day Stress

  • Rather than rushing everything in one go on moving day, short-term moving storage lets you move gradually, easing the pressure on moving day.

Store Seasonal Items

  • Large or awkward furniture, sports gear or holiday decorations can go into affordable storage options for home movers until you need them again.

Choosing the Right Storage Unit for Your Move

When selecting the house move storage units you need, there are three factors to keep in mind: 

Size: A one-bedroom flat usually fits into a 50-65 sq ft unit. Adding 30–50 sq ft for each additional bedroom ensures you are not stuck with too little storage. 

Access: If you expect to return to your unit regularly to add or remove items, pick a unit slightly larger than you need for space to create a walkway for easy access. 

Indoor or Outdoor Units: At select Wigwam locations, we offer large and affordable self storage units as well as clean and dry outdoor container units ideal for large home moves. They provide a lot of space at an affordable price.

There are many ways personal storage while relocating can help you and your family.

Tips for Organising Your Moving House Storage

Getting the most from your unit is easy with a little preparation: 

  • Label every box with its contents and the room it belongs in, so unpacking is without incident. 
  • Disassemble large furniture like beds or tables to save space during storage and transport. This makes handling furnishings easier, which protects against damage. 
  • Stack boxes and items carefully by placing heavier boxes at the bottom and fragile items on top. 
  • Keep an essentials box handy with everyday items like toiletries and bedding for your first night. 

These simple steps ensure your belongings stay safe, accessible and well-organised. It also prevents surprises like a mispacked phone charger.
