Some of us may occasionally need to put our valuable possessions into short- or even long-term storage. You may be about to move your house and having to rent some temporary accommodation, or perhaps you have been fortunate enough to gain a six month contract for employment overseas.
Whatever the circumstances, one thing is exactly the same: you want to make sure that your belongings are safely looked after so that they will still be there, in perfect order, once you come back.
Generally speaking, there will probably be several moving companies in your local area that offer storage facilities. What precisely should you look for to ensure that everything will go smoothly?
One helpful piece of advice is to check out the storage premises prior to making any commitment to use them. This might seem like an obvious piece of advice, but you would be amazed how many people simply sign up to use a storage facility at a moving company just because the company is well known. You need to make sure that the facilities are well maintained and that they offer the kind of service and security that you want. There have been times when established firms have been found to be using old and worn out equipment and that their security arrangements have not been upgraded for many years.
