7 Drawbacks of a "Do It Yourself" Move to Your Storage Facility

  • Excess “stuff” is often stored in attics and basements and may be difficult to carry up and down stairs
  • You may end up missing work if you injure your back carrying boxes of documents, heavy electronics or bulky furniture to and from your vehicle.
  • You could drop that spare set of fine china you don’t have a place for it now but want to use in your new home
  • You may need to ask a favor to borrow your friends’ minivan and have to fit in with their schedule
  • You take the risk of renting a truck. 
  • Your furniture will get bumps and bruises due to the lack of protective material and proper handling.
  • Crushed boxes and damaged furniture from improper stacking in storage.
Don’t assume there's not an alternative and that it’s too expensive to hire a professional moving company to pick up and deliver a small load of items to or from a storage facility. Affordable Moving & Storage has lower minimums than most other companies and specializes in small moves. We complete many in a day, allowing us to offer premium service at bargain rates. Of course, we’re well equipped to handle big loads too. Using experienced movers gives you peace of mind --- and a good self storage unit gives you room to breathe!

What to Look for in a Self Storage Unit

  • Squeaky clean and no squeaky critters. Examine the office as well as the storage units for tidiness and cleanliness. How often is the facility inspected for bugs and rodents and how often is it fumigated?
  • Excellent security. How is access to the units monitored? Are there measures in place to prevent thieves from hiding their stashes there or helping themselves to your valuables?
  • Convenient gate and office hours. Is there an after-hours number in case of problems or an emergency?
  • The correct size for your requirements. Is there space for you to access your belongings with ease and for ventilation if necessary? 
  • Climate control. If you’re storing wooden chairs that may crack in a dry environment or papers that develop mold in a humid space, you’ll need to look for a climate controlled self storage unit. As you’ll pay more for this benefit, make sure that you actually need it.
