Storage for Duncan movesA gap between dates.
A plan for the belongings.
A Cowichan Valley move may need to leave the old home before a renovation finishes or the next possession date arrives. Plan collection from the Duncan-area address, storage in Nanaimo and later delivery around the actual inventory and timing.
Collection from your address · Two Nanaimo facilities · Later delivery arranged
Choose storage for your move.
Dates, belongings and access.
Tell us why you need storage, how long goods may stay and whether you need anything before final delivery.
Possession dates that do not overlap
Give both deadlines and identify belongings needed immediately. Discuss the storage stage, transport to Nanaimo and the return delivery as separate parts of the written moving plan.
A renovation or temporary room clearance
List the rooms or furniture leaving the work area and the expected period. Identify any tools, furnishings or other goods you may need sooner so access can be reviewed before collection.
Downsizing from a larger Valley property
Separate items for the next home, family, removal and storage. Include outbuilding contents and choose a contact who keeps the inventory and later release instructions consistent.
Duncan collection.
Storage at our Nanaimo facilities.
Our storage facilities are in Nanaimo. Duncan and nearby-community service is the agreed collection or delivery arrangement, built around the exact access at your Valley property and next destination.
-
Outbuildings in the stored inventory
List garage, shed or workshop contents separately where useful. Describe unusual or larger items so acceptance and preparation can be reviewed.
-
A residence with fixed access hours
Confirm the loading point, elevator and responsible building contact. Keep overnight essentials and documents outside the goods entering storage.
-
Items for early release
Tell the office what might be needed before final delivery. Labels and inventory notes should fit the agreed retrieval arrangement and required notice.
-
Delivery to the next Valley home
Give the full receiving address and access when known. If dates or the destination change, update the office so the handling, timing and charges can be reviewed.
Prepare the storage inventory.
Arrange access and return delivery.
The physical storage operation is in Nanaimo, with more than 8,000 sq. ft. combined across two warehouse and storage facilities. Explain the inventory, expected duration and items you might need before final delivery. Availability, goods acceptance and retrieval arrangements are reviewed with the office.
What belongs in the estimate?
The estimate should distinguish collection, any packing, storage duration, access or retrieval, and later delivery. The office confirms the applicable Nanaimo facility and receiving arrangement before goods arrive. Discuss extensions and partial collection before booking.
-
Separate the destinations
Decide which goods go directly to the new home and which enter storage. Keep essentials, medication and important documents with you; identify anything with a different family or removal destination.
-
Number boxes and flag early-access items
Number cartons and keep a matching room-and-contents list. Flag goods you may need before final delivery and discuss their access before loading; retrieval times, notice and handling charges are agreed with the office.
-
Arrange delivery when the space is ready
Send the return-delivery address, ready date, receiving contact and access details when known. Tell the office promptly about possession or renovation delays so the storage period, charges and delivery appointment can be reviewed together.
