The highest quality, most competitive short term storage.
Are you having some decorating done in your home or office that would be much more efficient if the room was empty? Is the purchase of your new house dragging on and your buyer keen to get in? Short term storage at TFM is the obvious choice. We can collect small amounts or entire homes, hold them for a few weeks (or even days), and then redeliver when everything is complete.
Moving house is stressful enough without your buyer threatening to pull out.
Moving house can be stressful, and chains do not always match up perfectly. For many reasons the purchase of your new home can end up being delayed for a few weeks – meanwhile the people buying your house are pressing forward, their mortgage may be running out, or their children starting at a new school.
In this situation, the last thing you want to hear is “they are considering pulling out of the purchase”, but unfortunately it happens.
Our short term storage is the answer. We will collect all of your goods and load them into containers at your address, these will be sealed with a numbered customs seal and held safely. You can find temporary accommodation or stay with family and your buyer is kept happy. Whenever your new house is ready we will return your containers to you and unload your belongings into your new house.
Best of all: it doesn’t cost much more than a ‘normal’ removal; we are still only handling the furniture twice so the labour costs remain low.
The same service on a smaller scale
What if you don’t need your whole home stored? Perhaps you are having a new kitchen fitted, or carpets laid in the lounge. Obviously this is far easier and less risky if the rooms are empty, so why not have us come and collect all the items from the room in question?
We will store your items and return them when the work is complete, and you will have total peace of mind that your items won’t be damaged and the work will be completed quicker without them in the way.
Cheaper than self storage
A lot of people in this situation think self storage is the best option for them, but unless you require regular access to your goods it never is.
- Self storage is far more expensive because you pay for a whole large room, or book a room that is too small and end up with two rooms.
- Self storage companies will very often hike the price up mid storage term.
- They include no insurance or wrapping and packing materials, TFM do.
- All your goods are handled four times… loading at your house, unloading at the unit, loading at the unit and unloading at your house. Twice as many as TFM.
