Moving and Need Storage in Brisbane? Here’s What to Do

📦 Moving House but Can’t Take It All? Here’s How to Organise Storage in Brisbane

Whether you’re downsizing, moving between leases, or just have more furniture than space — storage can be a lifesaver during your move.

At Get It Cheaper, we help you find Brisbane removalists who offer storage options, so you don’t need to hire one company for transport and another for holding your stuff.

🔐 When to Use Storage During a Move

You might need storage if:

  • 🕐 Your new place isn’t ready yet

  • 🏡 You’re downsizing but not ready to sell or donate items

  • ✈️ You’re moving interstate or overseas and need time in between

  • 🔁 Your settlement or lease dates don’t line up

  • 🧹 You want to stage your home for sale and declutter first

Rather than juggling two services, some Brisbane movers offer integrated storage solutions — and you can compare those options here:

📊 What Storage Options Are Available?

Most removalists offer one of the following:

Type Description
Short-Term Storage 1–14 days, often at their depot while you wait for move-in
Long-Term Storage 1+ month, suitable for downsizing or overseas moves
Mobile Storage Storage pods dropped off and picked up later
Self-Storage Partnerships Movers deliver to a partnered storage facility

Make sure to ask whether pickup and delivery to storage is included in your quote.

🧠 Questions to Ask Before Booking

If you need storage as part of your Brisbane move, ask your mover:

  • Is the storage climate-controlled and secure?

  • Are my items stored individually or with other customers’ goods?

  • Can I access the storage unit if needed during the holding period?

  • Are packing blankets and protection included while in storage?

  • How much notice is needed to retrieve items?

🧼 Need Time to Clean Before Putting Stuff in Storage?

If you're moving out of a rental, storage buys you time to do a proper bond clean before handover — or outsource it entirely.

This is especially useful if you're clearing out rooms but not moving in one go.
