Storage in Renfrew — Short & Long Term
Storage is in our name for a reason. We hold belongings for Renfrew families between closing dates, during renovations, through a downsizing, and for as long as an estate takes to settle — and because we do the moving too, your things are loaded once by us, stored, and delivered when you are ready. No second crew, no double handling.

The closing-date gap
This is the most common reason people call us about storage, and the most stressful. Your sale closes on the 15th and your purchase completes on the 30th, and for two weeks your entire household has nowhere to be.
The expensive way to solve that is two moves — one into storage, one out — usually with two different companies and two invoices. We do it as one job: load your home once, hold everything securely for as long as the gap runs, and deliver on the day you get keys. You pay for one move and the storage in between.
Downsizing without deciding everything at once
When someone moves from a family home into an apartment or a suite at a retirement residence, the hardest part is rarely the lifting — it is being asked to decide, in one week, what to keep from forty years.
Storage takes that pressure off. Move what fits now, store what you are not ready to part with, and make the rest of the decisions at a human pace. Families settling an estate use it the same way, particularly when relatives are spread out and cannot get to Renfrew at the same time.
Renovations and seasonal storage
Floors going in, a kitchen coming out, or a basement being finished — furniture has to live somewhere that is not the middle of the room under a dust sheet. We take it out, store it, and bring it back when the trades are done.
The same goes for the seasonal shuffle a lot of Valley households know well: cottage furniture, seasonal gear, and the contents of a workshop that has to be cleared for a few months.
One company for the whole chain
The advantage of storing with your mover is that nothing gets handled more than it needs to be. Every extra load and unload is another opportunity for something to be scratched, and another crew who did not wrap it in the first place.
If you are also clearing a property, our estate and senior clearing service and our removal and cleanup work run alongside storage, so keeping some things and disposing of others does not mean coordinating three companies.

Storage in Renfrew — FAQs
Do you offer storage in Renfrew for between closing dates?
Yes, and it is what most of our storage is used for. We load your home once, store everything securely for as long as the gap lasts, and deliver on your possession day — one move rather than two.
How long can I store things for?
Anywhere from a few days to as long as you need. Short-term gaps between closings and long-term storage during an estate settlement are both normal for us.
Is it cheaper to store with my movers than to rent a unit?
Usually, once you count the handling. A self-storage unit still needs someone to load your things in and back out again — that is two extra moves you are paying for. Storing with the company that moved you keeps it to one.
Can I store just part of my home?
Yes. Partial storage is very common during downsizing — take what fits into the new place now, store the rest while you decide, and we will deliver or help you clear it later.
