Non-Temporary Storage
Long-Term Storage Options for Government and Military
Military life can lead to some demanding lifestyle changes. Those who live in on base housing or who are shipped out overseas are eligible for Non-Temporary Storage. At Nilson Van & Storage, we provide Non-Temporary Service and are proud to offer our services to those serving our country.
What is Non-Temporary Storage?
If your items don’t all fit in your housing on base, then you will either have to get rid of them or find a place to keep them. That’s where we come in – we offer services to move and store your items in a location where they will be protected and dry. These services are typically used by an authorized individual in specific military circumstances, such as:
- Long-term training
- Arduous duty
- Overseas duty
- Restricted assignments
- Small base housing
The difference between Storage in Transit and Non-Temporary Storage boils down to the length of time you need your items to remain in storage. If you plan to store items for more than 6 months, then we recommend you consider Non-Temporary Storage.
Often, military personnel who are hoping to apply for Non-Temporary Storage will need to do so within 30 days of their housing lease. If leave is given, military personnel can benefit from these services at no cost to themselves.
Tips for Non-Temporary Storage
Pack your items carefully. Once things are placed into Non-Temporary Storage, you will not see them again for many months and possibly years. There are a list of items that cannot be placed into Non-Temporary Storage, which mostly deals with perishable items and food. Be sure to check with us to understand weight limits and item restrictions.
