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 Archerfield 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 Archerfield.  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.

Moving is a sucky business but Eileen, Marlon and Luis from Brisbane Removalists made the whole thing suck far less than it could have. Nothing was too much trouble, they packed the truck like tetris and they were gentle and thoughtful with everything. I heartily recommend for your next move.
Response from the owner: Thank you, Kathy, we really appreciate your feedback and for taking the time to do this. Sucky is a great way of explaining moving. So glad we made it less sucky! The teams are well trained to do moves so it does make the process easier and allows you to feel confident that your precious items arrive in one piece. We wish you all the very best in your new home Kathy. Hopefully the warm weather will return soon. Eileen
Erick and Elvis helped us with moving from an apartment to a house and they were both great. They took care of our stuff, were friendly, and personable. They both deserve recognition for the hard work that they do and would use them again in the future if needed. :)Thanks!

I look forward to sorting the next part of your move with you Epi. Take care - see you for part 2 soon. Eileen
Prior to booking with Brisbane Removalists, I had gotten quotes from a number of different companies, and went with them as they were the only company that didn't spam me with multiple phone calls, texts and emails every day.This being our first larger move, I was fairly stressed about it and was expecting many things to go wrong, but it was smooth and easy throughout the process. Eileen was super responsive and friendly in the booking process. We had a last-minute change in schedule with under 24h until the move needed to commence, but Eileen was able to accommodate us for the next day, without any dramas.Our movers were Dairo and Camilo. They showed up with big smiles and got to work quickly. I was very impressed with how strong and careful they were. We had an apartment-to-apartment move, and there was no damage to any of our walls or lifts, nor to any of our belongings. I could barely hear any noise as they were working, which is a testament to how gentle they were. We had some heavy and delicate items (piano, artworks), and there was no damage, not even on the plastic wrapping.Overall I was very impressed by the level of service and care and hope to use them again for my next move!
Response from the owner: What a super review you have given us. Thank you, Delia. This is wonderful to hear. I am thrilled me made your move a stress-free and a successful one. Large moves are stressful, but we have true superheroes on our staff that know exactly what they are doing and how to handle goods properly and always come with a smile. I will pass this on to Dairo and Camilo. They will be very happy to see their names in lights! We wish you all the very best in your new home Delia. I am sure the boxes will soon disappear, and you will be able to put your feet up and enjoy your new surroundings. Eileen and the team.
Best guys, super fast, extremely careful and hardworking. Would highly recommend. AAA+++
Response from the owner: Good morning, Karla! always wonderful to start my day off with a wonderful review! I will definitely let Sebastian and Jonathan know that they were superheroes! Thanks for being loyal to our company...should I say Auf wiedersehen? Hopefully we will see you again soon. Eileen and the team. :)
From our initial inquiry, Eileen was very transparent and detailed which made us feel reassured about our move. We also had a last minute booking which they were able to cater for. We were stressed about our TV with a thin panel but the team were able to use padding, blankets and their experience to move it without any problems. The movers, Nathan and Liuz, were very efficient and safe with good manual handling practices. We highly recommend these two lads! They are machines! They were quick, organised and attentive. They were also ready and willing to listen to our needs and requests. This was something we and others really appreciate! You’ve got a great combo with this team. Thank you, Brisbane Removalists!
Response from the owner: What a lovely review Savannah. Nathan and Liuz are very much superheroes. We would be lost without them and all our super teams. I want to thank you for taking the time to write this and to support the effort they made to make your move so easy. I am sure they had a lot of fun on the day. We wish you a happy landing in your new home and all the very best. I hope the boxes disappear quickly so you can enjoy it even more. Eileen and the team
Very polite, punctual and friendly.
Response from the owner: Thanks Jonathan, lovely to hear this. I will let Erick and Daniel know that you gave them 5 stars. They will be thrilled. Enjoy your new home. I hope you settle well. Eileen and the team.
Fantastic job guys, I would highly recommend Brisbane Removalist. Once again a fantastic team definitely the best removalist I have ever used.
Response from the owner: Hi Kevin, thank you for taking the time to review us. I will pass on your thanks to Dairo, Diego and David. They are superheroes and have a great work ethic. Glad we could help make your move a little easier. Container moves certainly remove the stress of double settlements and such like. We will see you again soon for the container drop off. Take care, Eileen, Thomas and the team.
I called them at 10am today, asking if I could relocate my business. The truck arrived at 3, and 5 hours later we had the entire business in a new location. Super helpful guys, and great customer service - booking was also easy.
Response from the owner: Thanks, Steve for the lovely review. So glad we could help out last minute. You also made it very uncomplicated. We wish you luck with your business expansion! Maybe we can move you next time when you are in need of an even bigger office. :) Eileen and the team.
The team was puntual, professional and really helpful!Eileen also provides an excellent customer service and was patient with all our questions. We would definitely recommend!
Response from the owner: Hi Maria, thank you for the lovely review. So happy your move went smoothly. We love to know that we have made a difference in what usually is a stressful day. I enjoyed chatting with you on the phone. I so enjoy fun clients like you. Makes my day! Enjoy your new home, Maria.
We recently moved some items out of storage with Brisbane Removalists and I can’t recommend them enough. The two guys arrived early. They were very pleasant and accommodating and showed much care with our furniture and our walls. The price was reasonable and communication was clear from time of booking to completion of the move. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for the review, Jan. Glad this went more smoothly than your last experience. Hopefully we have restored your faith in removalist companies. It is a mine field to find the right company. Word of mouth and google reviews are often the most reliable means of getting the right company, which is why we really appreciate you having taken the time to let others know. We do not advertise and rely purely on reviews and word of mouth. I will let Erick and Nicolas know that they were superstars today! We wish you all the very best Jan. Happy landing. :) Eileen Thomas and the team
Fantastic service. We had a dual settlement which was stressful enough. The guys they sent out to us were very professional, extremely hard working and very careful with our belongings. I will be using them from now on and I suggest you do as well if you want a stress free and professional job. 10 out of 10.
Response from the owner: Hi Bryce, thank you for the lovely review. Despite it being a very stressful day for you with double settlement, you remained so cheerful and positive. I am sure the team had a great fun with you all day. I will let Luiz, and both Camilos know that you have given them a 5-star review. You were wonderful to deal with from A to Z and we look forward to hearing from you again with your next family move. Good luck with your next building project! Eileen, Thomas and the team. (and Dobby the office cat!)
Eileen and the boys made this move as easy as possible. Such a great team, smiling, hard working and organised. True professionals in every way. Thank you so much.
Response from the owner: Hi Rachel, so happy that your container moves went so well for you and super happy that we were able to fit everything in the one container for you, rather than two. I am glad we opted for one with back up rather than bringing out two from the start. Thank you for taking the time to thank our superheroes - they do a stellar job. I will let David, Julian, Javier, Nicolas and Andres know. We wish you all the best in your new home and a wonderful rest of the year. Eileen, Thomas and the team. :)
We have used Brisbane Removalists twice for two removals from offices in the Brisbane CBD and, each time, they have been so easy to deal with. They are available quickly, extremely polite and professional, the removalists are super stars and the invoicing and payment is very easy. We will continue to use them for all future moves. Thank you!
Response from the owner: Hi Sharnie, thank you so much for such a lovely and kind review. This made my day! I will let Erick and Nicolas know that you were so happy with them. YES, they are superstars! We are fortunate to have great teams and are very lucky in this respect as we would not be successful without them and their wonderful work ethic. I am so glad that we have made your moves seamless. I look forward to working with you in the future Sharnie. Eileen, Thomas and the team.
The guys we had were amazing they worked extremely hard, were polite, and made sure everything was in the correct place before they left. We will definitely recommend and use them again!
Response from the owner: Hi Jordy, thank you for your lovely review and taking the time to thank the team. I will let Vanderson, Fredy and Santiago know. We love to hear that you appreciate their work but also their attitude and work ethic as we do. They are fantastic and we love having them on the team. :)
I've used this company to move twice now, and both times they did great! My first time was two years ago, and the guys did such a great job that I didn't have to think twice about coming back. The second time around was just as fantastic. Friendly and efficient service all around.
Response from the owner: Thank you Vassili, for taking the time to write us a review. We love return customers and are very happy to hear that the service we offer is consistent. I thoroughly enjoyed catching up with you. You also make our job easy. You have such a great personality and attitude. I am sure Andre and Luis had a lot of laughs. Hope to see you again in the future. Enjoy your new home! Eileen
They moved us from Kenmore to Manly, they guys were on time, courteous and did everything in a timely manner.
Response from the owner: Hey Graeme, thank you for the review. Happy that it all went to plan and that you appreciated our services. I hope you settle well into your beautiful new home in Manly. :) Enjoy the view!
