Furniture Storage Altrincham

Moving Homes? Clearing Space? Furniture Storage Is the Answer! 

There are so many reasons why our customers choose to keep their furniture in our self-storage in Altrincham; for example: 

• Decluttering and clearing space. If you feel as though you’re fighting to move around your house, it may be time to move some things into furniture storage. Whether it’s an armchair that’s used for piling up clothes or a spare bed that’s not getting used at the moment, this is the perfect place to store your belongings. 
• Moving home. This is one of the most common reasons customers in Altrincham use our storage units. Whether you want to put a few items in storage whilst you get your home ‘show-house’ ready ahead of sale, or you need somewhere short-term if the sale has been delayed, this is a great option. 
• New arrivals and life events. A baby is an exciting addition to any family, but finding the space to fit a nursery can be a stressful part of the journey. Furniture storage is the best place to keep items while you clear a room for new arrivals. Suppose you have a family member moving back home, elderly parents moving in, or you’re considering renting out a bedroom. In these cases, you’re going to need some extra space – and storage for your spare furniture, appliances and household goods will have you find the space you need.  

Packing and Preparing Your Furniture for Storage 

Before you load up your car or van with furniture, it’s important to pack and prepare your items properly to avoid damage or lost items. Firstly, if you’re disassembling furniture, make sure to keep screws, instructions, and other bits and pieces altogether to ensure you don’t lose any important parts when reassembling again. 

Once this is done, carefully wrap fragile items in bubble wrap or packing paper and place them in sturdy boxes. Don’t forget; we have a Box Shop available at our Altrincham store where you can pick up all the packing materials you need to keep your things protected. Our boxes are double-skinned with the same footprint – they make packing and stacking inside your storage unit much more efficient. Label the boxes with a summary of what’s inside and complete an inventory as you pack. 

When you arrive at your storage unit, don’t just dump your furniture and run! Spend a bit of time planning how you’ll position your items. Think about how often you plan to visit your storage unit and what items you might need ready access to. We suggest you put a copy of your inventory in one of your accessible boxes, so you can refer to it easily and update it if you make changes to what you are storing in your unit. It will also help you stay on top of things so that you can ensure you have the correct cover in place to protect your goods – just in case.
