My Move Has Been Unexpectedly Delayed. What Do I Do with All of My Stuff?

What if delays happen in residential moves? What do you with your belongings? If you can’t keep them in your current space and you can’t move them to your new place yet, you have a real problem on your hands.

When you are planning a residential move, things don’t always go as planned. Sometimes there are unexpected delays that can pose a big problem. Most notably, what do you do with your things when you have delays in your move? Fortunately, you do have options.

Storing Your Possession during Residential Moves

If you have an unexpected delay when you are in the middle of a residential move, most likely you are going to need to find some place to store your belongings. The easiest thing to do is to store your belongings with the company you have hired to help you move since many moving companies offer short-term storage.

You want to look for a moving company that helps pack your things for storage. They should take an inventory of your items so they know exactly how many boxes and other items are being stored. They should also offer you access to your belongings in case you need them during the moving delay.

Where Your Things Are Stored

Whether you choose to rent your own storage unit or have your moving company store your belongings, you want to make sure your belongings are stored in a secure environment. Ideally, the storage facility should be climate controlled and should also be monitored for security so that you know that your items are being well cared for.

Moving can be very stressful and time-consuming. The process doesn’t always go as smoothly as you would like. Sometimes unexpected delays happen and they can leave you in a real bind. But when you work with the right professional moving company, you can have the convenience and peace of mind you need to store your items if the moving process experiences an interruption.
