Handy tips for a smooth moving day

Embarking on a move can be a challenge, especially if you’re in-between Wellington flats. Utilising free truck hire from StoreStuff for your move-in significantly simplifies the process. As one of our customers said, with some planning and organisation, your moving experience can be “less stressful and pretty much a delight just because of how easy it was”. Here are some great tips to maximise the efficiency of your move to our storage facility:

Early Planning: Start your moving preparations in advance. Create a quick plan outlining your moving timeline and packing schedule. This early organisation helps both you and us, as we can ensure everything proceeds smoothly. This is especially important on our facility’s busiest day, Saturdays.

Item Organisation: Organising and label your boxes, and keep a rough track of what will be stored at our storage unit. Not only is this handy for quick loading and unloading, it also allows for easy placement and retrieval of items within the storage unit. What if you place an important box at the back of your unit? 

Furniture Disassembly: Disassemble large furniture pieces to ease transport and make the best use of space in the move-in truck. This also allows for more efficient use of space within your storage unit, helping you store more items while maintaining easy access.

Plan Truck Time-slot: Assess the volume of items you need to move and consider whether the standard 4-hour time-slot will suffice. If you think you may need more time, let us know, and we can arrange another slot or provide a key return box for after-hours. Book your rental truck early to secure the appropriate size for your needs. A customer of ours recommends to “check first for availability and book in as it is very popular”, especially on Saturdays.

Strategic Packing: Efficiently utilise the space in your rental truck. Begin with your largest and heaviest items, packing them closely together. Protect your belongings with our provided furniture blankets and secure them with rope against the hooks on the inside of the truck. This minimises movement and potential damage during transit.

Reliable Assistance: Utilise any provided loading tools like moving trolleys or dollies. You are welcome to borrow one from our storage facility, just let us know. These aids make it easier and safer to load and unload bulky items. Don’t hesitate to ask family and friends for help. Extra hands not only speed the moving process but also add an element of fun to it. Their assistance will accelerate the moving process, reduce the risk of injury or damage, and make loading StoreStuff’s rental truck more efficient and enjoyable. 

Safe Driving: Although our truck is automatic, easy to drive, and has a reversing camera, we want you to be comfortable. Take it for test-run around our enormous loading bay.

Safe Parking: Ensure you have a legal and safe parking spot for the truck at your Wellington address. This helps comply with local parking regulations, avoiding any last-minute logistical challenges. 

By following these tips and taking advantage of StoreStuff Self Storage’s complimentary move-in truck, you can enjoy a well-organised, safe, and efficient move into your storage unit. This integrated approach ensures every aspect of your move, from packing at your original location to storing items in your unit, is managed effectively
