Moving & Storage Tips
Moving Checklist
- Take inventory of your home. For insurance purposes, take a video with closeups of serial numbers, brand names or other identifying marks. Keep this video in your safe deposit box.
- Clean out all storage areas. Decide what goes with you, what to sell and what to give away. Donate items or have a yard sale.
- Call Mobile Mini to schedule delivery of your storage container at 1-800-950-6464. We have hand carts, packing supplies and boxes that we will deliver to you with the container!
- Start a file for all important moving-related documents. Many moving expenses are tax deductible, so keep your receipts. Call the IRS for Publication 521: "Tax Information On Moving Expenses."
- Make travel plans if needed - hotel, rental car or airline reservations.
Packing Guidelines
- Packing and loading of a Mobile Mini storage container is done in the same way you would pack for a moving van or rental truck move. Properly pack and secure your belongings because your storage container will be transported by truck to a Mobile Mini self-service storage facility location, and then it will be unloaded and moved by forklift.
- Label ALL boxes. Label your boxes by room and mark appropriate boxes fragile
- Packing boxes. Where needed, use mothballs and other pest control products. Do not overpack or underpack boxes. Seal boxes with packing tape and do not pack fragile and heavy items in the same box.
Let's Get Packing
- Start with the essentials: sturdy boxes, newsprint for wrapping, tape, scissors, felt tip markers for numbering and labeling. List contents of each box. Mark on each box where it belongs.
- Mobile Mini will deliver boxes and packing supplies, with your storage unit, right to your door.
- When packing your storage container, please refer to the container packing directions supplied. Be sure to use an inventory list with a general packing location of items inside each container.
Moving Day!
- Keep a floorplan handy for a quick reference.
- Plug in large appliances and electronics right away.
- Before you snack, clean each room and wipe out drawers.
- Unpack your bedding and make up beds as they arrive. Setup with survival kit.
