A Guide from the Movers at Tippet Richardson

Are you in the middle of a move and wondering where to store your household goods? If you want to be sure that your valuable items are in the right hands, consider a professional storage solution. Unlike self-storage, professional storage provides the perfect home for your carefully packed personal belongings and furniture.

If you are looking for a dependable and experienced moving and storage company to leave your goods with, look no further than Tippet Richardson. Whether you require long or short-term storage, we are happy to accommodate your needs in our bonded, high-tech and professionally operated warehouses.

4 Benefits of Professional Storage Solutions

Professional storage and self-storage are your two options when it comes to finding a temporary home for your excess belongings. Here are a few reasons why choosing professional storage is the right choice when it’s time to move your household goods out:

  • Keep Your Goods Secure:

    Unlike self-storage, our storage facilities are monitored 24-hours a day by a state-of-the-art electronic security system. As an added layer of protection, we carefully monitor individual access to the warehouse. We take pride in providing only the highest standards for our clients and the storage of their household goods.

  • Store Your Items Safely:

    We take exceptional care of your personal property. Your goods are properly stacked and safely packed into storage pallets. Additionally, your furniture is protected with heavy duty moving blankets. From the moment your items are removed from your home, they are pad-wrapped and remain in this state until they are delivered to your new address.

  • A Controlled Atmosphere:

    All of our climate-controlled storage facilities are equipped with up-to-date sprinkler systems. Items like paintings or fine wood furniture are affected by extreme changes in temperature or humidity and should, therefore, be maintained at proper temperature conditions. Clients also benefit from our clean and well-organized warehouse facilities.

  • Cost Effective Alternative:

    Using a traditional moving company to store your household goods is likely to cost you the equivalent or even less than the price of storing your items in a self-storage container. Therefore, it’s not difficult to see why you should entrust the storage of your household goods to the professionals.
