About Moving & Storage in South Australia
Moving and storage services cover storage facilities for short or long-term needs, pack-and-store services, mobile storage (containers brought to you), and combined moving-plus-storage solutions. Distinct from straight removalists in that the primary focus is the storage component.
Common moving & storage jobs:
- Self-storage unit rental (climate-controlled or standard)
- Mobile storage container (delivered to your home, picked up when packed)
- Pack-store-deliver service (full handling)
- Document and archive storage (business)
- Vehicle storage (cars, caravans, boats)
- Wine storage (climate-controlled)
- Furniture storage during renovation
- International relocation storage
- Estate downsizing assistance
- Short-term storage during property sale-and-purchase
What it usually costs: Self-storage unit (small, 1.5x1.5m) $25–$50 per week. Medium unit (3x3m) $60–$120 per week. Large unit (6x3m, fits a 3-bed home) $150–$280 per week. Climate-controlled adds 30–60% premium. Mobile storage container rental $200–$400 per month, plus delivery/pickup. Insurance for stored items typically extra.
Hiring tips: Check insurance coverage on your home contents policy — many policies don't cover items in self-storage. Get separate storage insurance through the facility or your own insurer for valuable items. For wine, photos, electronics, and artwork — climate-controlled storage is worth the premium. Ask about access hours — some facilities have 24/7 access, others are restricted. For mobile storage containers, check whether your driveway can accommodate delivery. For long-term storage, look for facilities offering month-to-month rather than locked-in contracts.
