Pro tips

Make the most of a short stay

Four practical things that make storage easier.

1

Pick the right size

A short stay is no reason to over-pay for space. Use our calculator to find the smallest unit that fits.

2

Pack to leave space

Stack lighter and keep an aisle down the middle so you can grab specific items mid-stay.

3

Label the front of every box

Label the side facing the door clearly: saves digging when you only have weeks.

4

Photograph what you store

A quick phone photo on move-in saves back-and-forth on collection day.
