Need Storage Between Moves in Brisbane? Here’s What to Do

📦 Got a Gap Between Homes? Here’s the Smart Way to Store Your Stuff

Moving out this week, but can’t move into your new place until next week? You’re not alone. Brisbane renters, downsizers, and home sellers often need short-term storage between moves — and you can bundle it with your removalist booking.

At Get It Cheaper, we help you compare removalists who offer secure storage options, so you don’t have to juggle multiple companies just to bridge the gap.


🧠 When Might You Need Storage?

  • 🗓️ Settlement dates don’t align

  • 🔁 Lease ends before your new one starts

  • 📦 You’re downsizing but not ready to sell everything

  • 🛠️ Renovations or construction delays

  • ✈️ Moving interstate and need a temporary holdover

Rather than cluttering a mate’s garage or hiring a separate storage unit, book movers who handle both storage and transport in one go.

🔐 What Kind of Storage Do Movers Offer?

Storage Type Best For
Short-term (1–14 days) Gaps between leases
Long-term (1+ month) Downsizing or staging homes
Mobile storage Pods delivered to your door
Depot-based storage Secure, professional warehouse facilities

Most removalists offer secure, climate-controlled depots, and will wrap and store items for you — no double-handling required.


💡 Tips for Moving Into Storage

  • Use clear labels (especially if not unpacking right away)

  • Pack essentials separately — don’t store things you’ll need tomorrow

  • Wrap fragile items securely, even in storage

  • Ask for insurance coverage during storage

  • Book access times in advance if using depot storage


🧼 Don’t Forget to Clean Your Old Place Before It Sits Empty

If you’re moving out of a rental or selling, you’ll still need to leave the place clean — even if you don’t move in right away.

👉 Book a Brisbane bond cleaner
Bundle your clean and move for a smoother transition.
