furniture storage - container storage

Furniture storage for short or long term

ARE YOU IN NEED OF SHORT OR LONG-TERM FURNITURE STORAGE IN BRISBANE?

There are many reasons for needing short or long-term storage and this can be costly! Brisbane Removalists have a cost-effective solution for your interim storage that avoids double-handling and simplifies the entire process.

Our 20-foot storage containers are suitable to house a standard 3-bedroom home overnight, for a week, month or longer. Our storage facility in Nudgee is fully insured and flood risk-free. Insurance is included in our weekly fee, making container moves very flexible and a cheaper option than traditional storage facilities.

RENOVATING IN BRISBANE AND NEED SHORT TERM STORAGE?

Short term furniture storage

Are you renovating, needing your floors repolished, new flooring or carpet laid? Brisbane Removalists can help with the short-term storage needed. We arrive at your house with a container, load your furniture directly, and store it for the time needed. We simply bring the container back for a quick unload when your floors/renovations are done.

No need to ring around third-party storage facilities to get the best deal and waste even more time. You have probably already spent enough time looking for a reliable removalist company! We can be your one-stop shop and have this done in half the time it takes when using a traditional facility.

WHY IS CONTAINER STORAGE COST EFFECTIVE?

Often cheaper and time efficient

Container uplift and storage are cheaper than traditional storage because there is no double handling for one. We uplift directly into the container and store it ready for delivery when needed by our experienced movers. This is a simple, efficient and time-saving option.

With traditional storage facilities, we have to uplift your items into a truck and then unload them into the storage facility. We must then return to the facility to uplift and unload a second time on delivery.  This not only costs more because of the double handling but also because you will have to pay insurance on top.

Sometimes there are even extra fees added such as fumigation.  Some facilities have limited flexibility with minimum storage restrictions. This may mean you have to pay for a month when you only need a week.

WHY CHOOSE CONTAINER STORAGE OVER TRADITIONAL STORAGE?

Container storage is perfect for the following situations.

Double-settlement overlaps

Is double settlement too risky and stressful? Container moves allow you to uplift the day before settlement without the stress of having to be out on time. They also give you time to clean without any pressure and to check you have not forgotten anything.

We can then deliver your goods in the container already packed the day before, without the double handling. You do not have the stress of meeting two deadlines on one day, or worry if the settlement falls through or is delayed and the “then what?” scenario. 

Settlement can sometimes be delayed.  This means you are on the clock with a truck full of goods, nowhere to go with the boys twiddling their thumbs. Securing early entry through your lawyer is a way around this and can take the stress off the table.

On the rare occasion, settlement does not happen at all. If this is the case, you will need a Plan B. It is, however, difficult to secure last minute storage.

Many take the risk without overnight storage, and it works fine most of the time. Container moves do allow for breathing space when moving and reduce the stress of an already stressful day.

If you have more than a 3-bedroom house to move, then 2 containers are necessary. It may then be preferable to upload directly into our largest truck (65m3).  You could pay for it to be stored overnight and off the road until settlement the next day. Talking to us, allows us to provide you with the most cost-effective and stress-free move.

SOLD YOUR HOME, BUT HAVE NOWHERE TO GO?

Container storage can be the answer

Selling your home is already an ordeal, but finding your new dream home simultaneously is a nightmare. Uplifting directly into storage containers, can take that time pressure off you and allow you to find the right property in peace.

Imagine this. Our experienced movers load the container directly with your possessions and take it to our storage facility in Nudgee.  Your goods will be safely stored and fully insured.

Once you are ready, we will upload the container, and unload your goods into your true dream home. Not one bought under the duress of time constraints. This is a great way to save time and money from double handling your goods, all the while time to really find what you want.

TROUBLE FINDING AN APARTMENT?

Short term furniture storage could relieve the stress

A lot of you are struggling trying to find a suitable apartment. You may have been subject to a rent rise you can’t afford, or your landlord has decided to sell. You may be relocating to Brisbane or have a new job and need to move closer. The problem is getting an apartment with the numbers of people looking. Same stress of having to be out of one and not having found the next. Container storage can also a great alternative here.

Other reasons container storage can help

Shared accommodation and excess furniture

Shared accommodation is becoming more frequent with the current housing crisis. Sharing a home can often mean duplicated furniture and appliances that can easily be stored safely until circumstances change or you make other arrangements for them.

Short or long term holiday storage when going overseas

Going overseas for an extended period of time can often mean you need a storage solution until you come back. Knowing your possessions are safe and dry is the peace of mind we offer. Again, direct uplift and drop off without transhipping saves time and money.

Whatever your storage requirements, we are here to help find a solution for you – it’s what we do best.

FURNITURE STORAGE ISN'T ALL WE CAN OFFER YOU

Brisbane Removalists, your one-stop place to go for all your removalists needs & more

For more than a decade now, Brisbane Removalists, experts in moving homes, have offered a wide variety of services. These services which include furniture storage, have helped out many clients and just some of these clients wanted to have their say. You can read what they said on our Reviews page.

Below, is a list of many of our services we offer to help you with your moving, packing, cleaning and storage needs.

Sometimes it is worth to just donate it

Although we always do our best to minimise storage expenses, it all comes down to the amount of space required to store your furniture. You need to decide whether all your belongings are worth the investment.

Consider donating some items rather than paying to store them. Brisbane Removalists can help out with this. Below are some contact links to a couple of registered charities for you.

This is the second time we’ve used Brisbane Removalists, and once again, they didn’t disappoint! Both times, the team arrived on time and ready to get to work.

I thought the Brisbane Removalists did a great move . The company keeps in touch, first move in a long time I didn't have to chase the movers .
The removalists that did the move were, on time, moved quickly and carefully. No breaks or losses , and where finished a lot sooner than I thought it would have taken.
Response from the owner:Good afternoon, Greg, thanks for the lovely review. Glad your small move went perfectly. Always tricky with risky objects but our superheroes did the job! Thanks for taking the time to review us. Eileen and the team.
Really great company so wasn’t work with!
Response from the owner:Hi James, I hope that this meant... so was worth it ... :) Glad you were happy with our services. I hope that you settle well in your new home. Eileen and the team.
Jeff and Diego helped us today and from the start they were such a fun and positive duo. Highly recommend! Their efficiency and care was incredible. Thanks team!
Response from the owner:Hi Hanna, thank you for the wonderful review. Most people would not have the energy to do this on move day. I will absolutely let Jeff and Diego know that they were once again true superheroes. We wish you all the very best in your new home. I hope the box contents find their way back into cupboards soon rather than later. Happy landing. :) Eileen and the team.
Jeff and Julian worked so hard getting all my gear moved. Thanks so much for all of your help!! Efficient and diligent.
Response from the owner:Hi Angela, thank you so much for you lovely review. Very happy to hear this. I will let Jeff and Julian know. I hope you enjoy your new home. Gald it all went well. You now have the weekend to get rid of all those scary boxes! I hope the team drew smiley faces on them for you! Eileen
Eric and Nicholas were absolutley amazing for my move I thuink I ordered a Truck slightly small but they got everything in professinally except the bike which Nicolas road over to the new house as I didnt really know the directions. This blew my mind. Incredible guys to be around for a few hours. Thanks Boys
Response from the owner:Hi Travis, thank you for your wonderful review. I will let Erick and Nicholas know that you appreciated their efforts. They are true superheroes without the capes. That is awesome that Nicolas rode your bike over! Maybe I need to buy them capes! :) Enjoy your new home Travis and thank you for taking the time to write this. Eileen and the team
Thank you so much. The boys were amazing. We were very happy with the way they handled our furniture and also their happy disposition. Thanks again.
Response from the owner:Hi Kari- Ann, thank you so much for the lovely review. I will let Vanderson and Thomas know that they did a great job. :) Thanks for using us for a second time. We love return customers. We wish you all the very best in your new home. Happy landing. Eileen and the office team.
Nicolas and Andrea were fantastic. Efficient and careful. No hassles or stress at all throughout the whole process. Both were very calm and considerate of our time too. Having everything in a shipping container with the option for overnight storage made our tricky settlement time frame simple and flexible. Would highly recommend
Response from the owner:Good morning Francarlo, lovely to start our day with a great review. :) Thank you! So happy we could help take the stress away from double settlement. It is the best way to go to overnight store or even for the week just to be able to clean and not have the pressure of moving out, settling and unloading on the same day. This safeguards you too if settlement does not go through as expected. I will let Nicolas and Andres know that you gave them 5 stars. Thank you for taking the time to review us and appreciate the team. Eileen, Thomas and Antje.
Fantastic job. On time and nothing was too much trouble. I would highly recommend.
Response from the owner:Thanks Doug, just what we love to hear. I will let Jeff and Jaime know. We wish you all the very best in your new apartment. I hope it has a good view! Eileen and the team
Antje and her team went over and above with my last-minute booking and unusual situation. Their service was excellent and friendly. An all-round terrific experience. Highly recommend.
Response from the owner:Hi Heidi, so happy to hear this. I am glad that we were able to sort your move out for you last minute. I hope that you settle well into your new home. I will let Antje, and the superheroes, Vanderson and Jefferson know how happy you were. Happy landing! Eileen
I highly recommend Brisbane Removalists. Their teams are awesome and amazing. They completed impossible tasks within short time to empty the whole house stuff including few sheds for my dad. It was a very tough job and it’s not only indoor furniture removal but also all other heavy metal machines and tools. Assisted with throwing all unwanted rubbish to skip. Those superheroes worked long hours and were still very energetic with patience full of smiles. In addition to above, the company has fast communication, quick response, and flexible adjustment to provide and adopt customer’s needs. I would give this company 6 stars out of 5. Overflow.
Response from the owner:Xie xie nin, Jane. I am so glad we could help. You were an amazing customer and one I will always remember. Despite the big job you were always so upbeat and positive and full of energy. We loved working alongside you. It was a mammoth task, but we all got there in the end. You were a superheroine too. I am sure you are thrilled this is all over. Take care and we will see you again soon when we deliver your containers! Hope you had a relaxing weekend after all that. Eileen and all the teams that did this job.
Fast, efficient, polite and friendly tram. Price and timing as quoted. Very happy with my second go with these guys, recommend.
Response from the owner:Good morning, Glen! Thank you for the lovely review. You are our 700th review. Reason for us to celebrate. Thank you very much for taking the time to recommend us. We really appreciate this and love having return customers. Enjoy your new home and maybe we will see you again one day down the track. Enjoy the weekend despite the rain - no excuse not to spend the day inside unpacking! Cheers from the BR team. I will let Ignacio know. Eileen
Excellent service, great to work with Brisbane Removalists, highly recommend them
Response from the owner:Hi Valentin, thank you for your lovely review. Glad we could help out and make your move a stress-free one. I so enjoyed chatting with you. I really hope you settle well and enjoy your new home. I will let both Camilos know you gave them 5 stars. Eileen
Very professional and polite. On time and great communication with regard to the process. Highly recommended.
Response from the owner:Thank you, for the lovely recommendation. I am glad we could sort your container move. I am sure this took a lot of stress off you with no double handling needed. I will let the teams know that you have given them a 5 start rating. Enjoy your new home. It is a great place to live. Happy unpacking. :) Eileen
