—

Compare the whole cost of a unit, not the headline price.

—

Watch for insurance you are forced to buy on top of the rent.

—

Think about how often you will actually need to visit, and how easy access is.

—

Be wary of free periods that are tied to a minimum stay and a particular unit size.

—

We usually have used boxes available — ask.

—

Sticking to one box size makes everything stack better.

—

Buy bubble wrap off the roll rather than in small packs.

—

Put heavy items at the bottom of each box.

—

Fill boxes completely so they do not crush when stacked.

—

Use a good vinyl packing tape.

—

Label everything, on more than one side.

—

Pack plates on their side, not flat.

—

Wrap the limbs of figurines and ornaments individually.

—

Free-standing shelves inside the container add usable capacity.

—

Distribute weight evenly across the floor.

—

Heavy low, light high, with the heaviest items near the door and along the sides.

—

Put blankets over furniture to protect it.

—

Use drawers to hold soft items.

—

Keep a clear walkway so you can reach things later.

—

Wear suitable footwear, keep trip hazards clear, and keep children and animals away from the loading area.

—

Do not overload your vehicle.

—

Stack roof racks sensibly and secure the load.

—

Ask us for a removals quote if you would rather not do the driving.
