Removalists and Self-Storage

Sometimes, DIY self-storage seems like a cheaper and simpler option. Everything can be done on your own time, you won’t have to hire a removalist, and your move into self-storage is completely in your control. But there can be some benefits of using a removalist to help get you started with self-storage.

Hiring a removalist can help give you a timeframe to stick to. The nature of self-storage means that there’s often no urgency – and if you’ve got no deadline or motivation to get the job done, your house might stay half packed up and full of boxes of self-storage for months. Booking a removalist will give you a set date on which to have everything organised – and it’ll all get done in one fell swoop.

Removalists can also be helpful when it comes to packing up self-storage. Packing household items into packing boxes is what they do – at least if you’re happy to pay them to do it – and so they’re very good at it. I can guarantee a team of removalist guys can attack your self-storage and wrap it up into boxes much quicker than you or I can. The self-storage process suddenly becomes much easier when you don’t have to pack things up.

And when all’s said and done, the removalists can also stack up your self-storage into the storage unit. Basically, they take all the hard steps out of self-storage, by getting them done for you. And you don’t always have to pay through the nose.

Location Considerations for Storage Units

Making the move into a storage unit doesn’t have to be as arduous as moving house. Why should it be, when you’re moving less stuff into a smaller, and frankly less decorative, space. Rather than having to fuss with the positions of the furniture, and unpacking the boxes, you simply have to load your stuff, potentially hire a removalist, and pack it efficiently in your storage unit. What could be simpler?

Storage rental is most successful when you use a storage facility located conveniently. Which is why Access Self Storage is the best storage solution for Melbourne suburbs such as South Yarra, St Kilda, Middle Park, the Docklands, and other suburbs near to South Melbourne.

Having a conveniently located storage unit has a number of benefits. Firstly, it will make the moving process much easier. You’ll either save money on the removalist, or you could forgo hiring one altogether and just transport it to the storage facility yourself.

A closely located storage unit will also make it much more convenient to retrieve your stored items whenever needed. A ten-minute drive to South Melbourne is much more achievable than a half hour trip to a storage facility at Chadstone, just to retrieve a photo album your aunt mentioned she wanted to borrow.

Considering a closely located storage facility should be a top priority when assessing storage rental, not only because it will save you money, but also because it will make for a far more satisfying storage experience.
