Moving
Do you have any tips for my move?
A move needs to be well planned.
Therefore, we recommend the following:
Packing
- Pack only things you still need, and use the move to get rid of excess items.
- Start packing in good time.
- Make a list of all of your moving items.
- Measure items that cannot be disassembled and include this information in the list.
- Label the moving boxes by room and contents.
- Do not pack too much in a single cardboard box to keep the weight acceptable and to facilitate transportation.
- Use appropriate packing material (such as bubble wrap, packing paper, towels, socks, tea towels and bedding) as stuffing material (see question: Which packing material does MyPlace – SelfStorage offer?).
Before storage
- Contact the team at the respective location to discuss availability and the ideal storage room size. Of course, you can take a close look at our units during an on-site visit.
- Arrange the start of your rental period according to your individual requirements.
- Disassemble large furniture to save space and facilitate transportation.
Storage
- Place tables and couches vertically whenever possible to take advantage of the full height of your storage room, saving floor space and money.
