ANTIQUES STORAGE


MOVING ANTIQUES TO STORAGE SAFELY
To ensure your antiques arrive safely into storage, find a facility with a successful track record in handling antiques, which also offers moving services. The mover should utilize special crating, packaging, and padding methods in trucks. For example, anchoring crates will prevent motion. Air controlled hydraulics are important to ensure a smooth ride for your possessions.

STORAGE ENVIRONMENT
Be sure to ask about environmental conditions, and tell the facility that you are storing antiques. Do not assume there is climate control in all their vicinities. Unless this feature is explicitly mentioned, the facility may not offer this service. Climate and humidity control may cost extra.

INSURING YOUR ANTIQUES FOR MOVING AND STORAGE
Inform the insurance company about your objects of value, before purchasing coverage. Insurers may insist on a formal valuation of the antique by an accredited appraisal expert.

Do not rely on the mover’s free insurance because it is based on weight. Ask about a better insurance plan and consider third party insurance.

You may need to provide the storage facility with proof of insurance, before they will agree to store valuable objects.



There can be many reasons private people and businesses need to store goods away to be used at a later time. Sometimes when moving your household goods may need to be stored temporarily. This may be due to timing and not having located a permanent home in your new city and you may need to store your belongings for a few weeks as you find a new home. You may decide to do some remodeling of your new home or build an entirely new home and you will need to have your furnishings out of the way while this is going on and storage is an obvious choice. You may just need to store items you do not or cannot have in your home due to space constraints, and storage can is an option in situations like this.

Storing with your moving company

An advantage of storing with your moving company is that the company will then deliver your furniture and other possessions when you are ready for them. You will not have to be present at the pick-up at the storage facility if you are moving with us as well.

Storage is for overnight only

If the storage is for overnight only, we will usually allow for storage within our truck itself, which is locked and parked in our safe and guarded depot, providing we have the availability. There is an extra charge for this service, and it varies according to the size of the truck. Please check with your relocation consultant in order to determine if this is option is available at the time of your move, and what the size of your shipment will cost for overnight storage.

To store or not to store

At the time when you are making a decision on whether to store or not to store your goods, think about the other options that may be available to you. Do you really need all the items you are planning to put in to storage? Can you get rid of any without any regrets? Remember if you are moving, that everything you get rid of now is something you wont have to pay to have moved. On the other hand you may need it someday! Ask yourself some questions before deciding to store particular items or not.
