Moving Questions - Storage

Question to Movex

from Christine M in CO - Tuesday, March 09, 2010
Does your company have the trailer storage option as we don't have a drop-off location/home at present and will need a secure place to keep our belongings (rather than rent a storage unit).

Movex Response

Christine,

We highly recommend NOT leaving your furniture in a trailer for an extended time. There are freight companies that provide that kind of service, but our experience is that the elements really take a toll on your furniture if it sits in a hot/cold truck for an extended period of time. Your best bet really is to get a storage facility. In the long run, it will be cheaper and safer.

do you provide storage?

Movex Response

Yes, we have a nationwide network of storage facilities that can help you. Just let your rep know when booking your order that you need to go to storage and they will help you find the right facility.

from Chaelie C in FL - Tuesday, September 08, 2009
WE are currently being informed our jobs ae at risk. How long can we keep the box to move & what would be the monthly fee to rent until we are ready to haul. We are trying for a northern part of Fl.

Movex Response

Chaelie,

We do not bring boxes, we only use moving trucks for our service and cannot leave your goods on them for long periods of time. I would suggest putting your furniture in a ministorage while you are making arrangements.

Question to Movex

from S G in SC - Sunday, September 06, 2009
Do you provide storage if I am not ready for my household goods. I need approximately 6 months or more. How much is it if you do pprovide storage options?

Movex Response

We do not provide long term storage. We also highly discourage you from leaving your goods on a truck for an extended period of time due to potential damage from heat or cold.

Your best option (and cheapest) would be to deliver to a self-service storage facility at youur destination.

from steven L in NY - Monday, July 06, 2009
im moving from ny to fl but where i live their is a bunch of apartments close together. other moving companys just drop off trailer and storage boxes. is there any other way i have a one bedroom of stuff not really much .

Movex Response

Steve,

Movex actually will wait while you load and then leave when you are finished. Other self-service companies and PODS leave the units for days at a time. Not only is this inconvenient, it is not secure and someone could come and steal your stuff at night.

FIRST, ADAM FLEISHER WAS FANTASTIC FOR HIS IMMEDIATE RESPONSE. MY QUESTION - WE ANTICIPATE HAVING TO STORE THESE PODS/TRAILERS FOR A MONTH AFTER WE GET MOVED TO S.D. - DO YOU PROVIDE THAT SERVICE?

Movex Response

Tobey,

Thanks. I will make sure Adam sees this on the website.

For your question, not really...At the bottom of the page you will see a list of links to different topics. Storage is one of those topics and I believe your question will be answered best there.

from judy W in NY - Friday, June 26, 2009
do you have storage facilities. we will have to store our belongings for approx. 2 months.

Movex Response

Judy,

We can deliver you to a storage facility, but we do not actually have storage facilities. We recommend delivering to a storage facility. Some companies offer you storage on the truck, but we advise against this. In the summertime, leaving your furniture on a truck for a month is the equivalent of cooking it in an oven.

from Lisa Y in ME - Thursday, June 18, 2009
The items I wish to move are currently in a storage facility. Your information states that you will move from residence to residence, but will you move from a storage facilty in NJ to a residence in ME?

Movex Response

Lisa,

Yes we will. Most storage facilities have room for moving vans to park. Make sure that you let your facility manager know that you are leaving so they can reserve a parking place for us.

Question to Movex

from MAr L in CA - Tuesday, June 16, 2009
Do you provide a storage service as well? Our home will not close in time for us to make one move straight to the home, so will need a company that can store for a couple of weeks.

Movex Response

Mar,

While it is possible to delay your shipment by a couple of days, we do not have the ablity to hold your shipment for long periods of time. We suggest renting a storage facility at destination and delivering your furniture there. With the summer heat, it is not a good idea to leave your stuff in a truck baking at 100 degrees for weeks at a time.
