Rent temporary storage for your belongings

Temporary storage bridges the time when your belongings have nowhere to go: you have to leave your old home before the new one is ready, or the rooms have to be empty for a renovation. Your belongings then stay in your own container in our climate-controlled storage. You rent per month and decide yourself how much you hand over. Request your price: on business days you get a response within an hour.

Per month: one month minimum, cancellable monthly after that
One container, from start to finish: what goes in is not transferred along the way
Climate-controlled and secured: dry and frost-free, with BORG 3, 4K AI cameras and alarm

When it helps

When is temporary storage useful?

A move or renovation rarely runs exactly to plan. With temporary storage, not everything has to come together on the same day.

Between two homes: you have to leave your old home, but cannot move into the new one yet
Completion is delayed: your belongings stay put until your new home is ready
Renovation: the rooms are empty, so the builder can reach everything
Moving in stages: what you do not use daily goes first, the rest follows on moving day
Too much for now: for example when two households come together in one home

Three ways to store your belongings temporarily

The difference is who loads and who drives. In every case your belongings stay in a container of your own.

We do everything

Moving with storage

Our movers load your belongings at your home straight into your own container. We seal it in your presence and keep it until your new address is ready. There we carry everything inside.

Nothing is transferred along the way
Move and storage in one quote
One account manager, from the survey until after the last box

Fits when you are in the middle of a move and do not want to arrange transport yourself.

You load, we drive

Mobile storage

We place a lockable, watertight container at your door and you load it at your own pace. After that we drive it sealed to our storage, or it stays with you for as long as you need it.

No trips to a storage location
Loading without time pressure
By default within about 30 km of our branches

Fits when you want to load yourself, but leave the transport to us.

You do it yourself

Automated self storage

You rent your own container in our storage in Katwijk and bring your belongings yourself. You book a moment through the app, the crane brings your container to a covered loading bay and you park right beside it.

You decide when you come
On business days until 19:00, at weekends until 17:00
No corridors or lifts

Fits when you want regular access to your belongings.

How it works

From request to your belongings back home

1

You request a price

Tell us what needs to be stored and for roughly how long. On business days you get a response within an hour. We advise which size and which way suits your situation.

2

Your belongings go into the container

At your home or at our loading bay. If our movers load, your account manager surveys your belongings beforehand. If we drive the container to storage, we first seal it in your presence.

3

Storage per month

The container stays in our climate-controlled facility, where only the computer-operated crane can reach it. If you need something in the meantime, that is possible at a pre-booked moment.

4

Back on the day you choose

You cancel per month. We deliver the container to the address you choose, or you collect your belongings yourself.

Sizes

Four container sizes, from a few boxes to the contents of a whole home

Storage is measured in cubic metres: you stack right to the top. If you are hesitating between two sizes, we check with you in the request which size matches what you want to store.

Costs

What does temporary storage cost?

That depends on the size, the duration and who does the work. Your price consists of at most three parts; your quote only lists the lines you actually use.

1 · The storage

Monthly rent per container

The rent depends on the size. You pay for at least one month and cancel monthly after that.

2 · The transport

Delivery and collection

If we place the container at your address, you pay a fixed amount for delivery and collection together, depending on the distance to the branch. If you bring your belongings yourself, this does not apply.

3 · The moving work

Only if our movers load

A fixed start rate plus an hourly rate for the truck and the movers. The account manager surveys your belongings; after that the rate is stated in your quote.

Storage is not insured by default. You can optionally take out storage insurance with us, or arrange it through your own home contents policy.

1 month
Minimum rental period

Storing for a few weeks is possible too; you then pay for one month. After that the rent continues per month.

Per month
Cancel when you are done

You do not need to know in advance how long you need to bridge. If the completion or the renovation is delayed, the storage simply continues.

Urgent
Short notice too

Our schedule runs eight weeks ahead, so feel free to request your price early. If you are closer to the date, thanks to our scale there is often still room at short notice.

Ask your question in the request

If you are in the middle of a move, moving with storage is the least work: our movers load everything and deliver it to your new address later. If you want to load yourself but not drive, we place a container at your door. If you would rather bring your belongings yourself and want regular access, automated self storage in Katwijk fits.
