On the day you’re set to move, the moving company that you will be storing your items with will send over a team of movers to take your packed boxes and other furnishings and load them into a truck. If you’ve opted in for their packing service, they would have sent a separate team a few days earlier to help pack your items neatly. Once everything is loaded, the truck will take your belongings to the warehouse. Ideally, this storage is secure and climate controlled with 24/7 surveillance to protect your items. If you need to get to your stored items for any reason, remember to call the company in advance. They will charge a daily fee for this. When you’re finally moving into your new home, the moving company will transport your belongings to the house and unload them in their proper room. You will ensure everything is in good condition by taking a walkthrough and confirming everything with the team leader.

The cost of incorporating warehouse storage into a move is typically influenced by the volume and nature of the items to be stored. Unlike self-storage units that often charge by size, warehouse storage usually considers other parameters. Generally, the price can range between $50 to $300 per month. This can vary, and will depend on the size and weight of the items being stored.

Make sure to research whether a moving company provides warehouse storage, as some do not. This Forbes article agrees, “Not every local moving company offers all of these services. Before hiring a mover, ask what services they offer to determine if they’re right for your move.” Selecting the right moving storage provider is a combination of research and trusted recommendations. Important criteria include Google Reviews from past customers, the diversity of services offered, a personal visit to the storage facility, ratings from the Better Business Bureau, and a proven track record highlighted by years of experience. Accreditations, testimonials, and affiliations with renowned organizations can also guide a customer’s decision-making.

The precision of a moving storage procedure speaks to its efficiency. Generally, the process starts with a meticulous assessment of items to be moved. Remember to do your best to decluter before moving, ensuring you’re only storing items you plan to keep. Moving.com recommends “Sorting your belongings into toss, recycle or donate categories. It’s an undertaking, but it will make your move easier.” Then, on moving day, movers will carefully load your belongings onto a moving truck, transport your items to the warehouse, and culminate with the final destination delivery and unloading at a future date when you’re ready. If you opt-in for packing services, a team will arrive a few days before your move to securely pack your items.

Our seasoned experience, coupled with our professionalism, ensures that every item, no matter its size or value, receives individual attention and unparalleled care. “Our team ensures every move is handled with care and precision, backed by our A+ Rating with the BBB and 25 years of experience,” says our President, Joseph Pollio.
In warehouse storage, organization is paramount. According to Move.org, “A good mover will have a large warehouse capable of storing all of your belongings. Your items will be placed in wooden vaults. This method ensures the safety of the items while maximizing storage efficiency. Depending on the moving company, items are sometimes placed on pallets before being secured in wooden vaults. Larger, more cumbersome items might be individually stored on pallets or in specific warehouse sections, always sheltered with mover blankets or shrink-wrapped for additional protection.
Cousins USA Moving & Storage embodies this organizational rigor in its storage practices. Each item, whether nestled in a vault or placed on a pallet, is given dedicated space in our temperature-controlled, 24/7 monitored warehouse. Our meticulous methods not only protect but also ensure easy accessibility when items are to be retrieved or moved. “Our team ensures every move is handled with care and precision, backed by our A+ Rating with the BBB and 25 years of experience,” says our President, Joseph Pollio.
Safety in storage is key for making sure your items arrive in your new home in good condition. Because of the hot temperatures in Florida, a climate-controlled warehouse is crucial to protect your items. Moving.com advises, “If you are storing your items somewhere that is already prone to high heat and humidity, then it’s best to mitigate those factors if you can.” Other aspects include round-the-clock surveillance, pest control measures, and protection from environmental factors like flood and rain. On-site security personnel play a pivotal role in deterring any unauthorized access or potential mishaps.
At Cousins USA Moving & Storage, we prioritize each of these safety facets. Our Fort Lauderdale warehouse has been designed to offer state-of-the-art climate control, with a relentless surveillance system in place. Every item, from delicate fabrics to valuable electronics, is safeguarded against potential risks, be it pests, climate extremities, or unauthorized access. “Your peace of mind is our top priority, and we take every measure to ensure your belongings are safe and secure,” says our President, Joseph Pollio.

The synchronization of pickup and delivery in warehouse moving storage is important. The initial step is scheduling, followed by packing and preparation. This will either be handled by you or, if you opt-in for packing services from your moving company, by a team of expert packers. Move.org states, “While packing your home may take you several days, a professional packing service may be able to get it done in a matter of hours.” On the agreed-upon date, movers will come and load your items into the padded moving truck and transport them to the warehouse. Then, once you’re ready to move your items to your new home, the movers will load items at warehouse and arrive with the moving truck and unload your items into their proper rooms.
Cousins USA Moving & Storage approaches this with professionalism and care. Every phase, from initial scheduling to the final unpacking, is handled with precision. With optional packing and unpacking services, we offer our customers a comprehensive, hassle-free moving experience .”We ensure a smooth process with free estimates and same-day service for local moves,” says our President, Joseph Pollio.
According to Forbes, “If there’s a gap between your move-out and move-in dates, many companies offer short-term or long-term storage solutions.” Understanding the terms of storage is paramount to avoid any misunderstandings. This typically encompasses the storage duration, fee structure, payment options, insurance clauses, access rights, and provisions related to prohibited goods or termination clauses. For more information on the specifics of these terms and conditions, it is best to speak to your potential moving company or assigned moving specialist.
With Cousins USA Moving & Storage, clarity is our hallmark. We ensure our customers are well-versed with each term and condition. By fostering transparent communication, we ensure that every customer feels confident and secure in entrusting their valuable belongings to our care and that there are no surprises throughout the process. “Transparency is key to building trust with our customers, and we make sure they understand every aspect of their storage terms,” says our President, Joseph Pollio.
Protecting items from potential damage or loss is the cornerstone of a reliable moving storage service. While government regulations stipulate Limited Liability Coverage at 60 cents per pound per item, many companies offer additional protective measures like Full Value Protection. This includes full reimbursement, replacement, or repair of damaged items. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration states, “This is the more comprehensive, but also more expensive, option for protecting your belongings.” You can also declare Items of Extraordinary Value, which are defined as items valued at over $100 per pound per article.
At Cousins USA Moving & Storage, we know the importance of safeguarding our customers’ belongings. By strictly adhering to governmental regulations and offering coverage options, we provide our customers with the assurance that their items are protected, be it during transit or while in storage. Be sure to speak with your moving specialist about upgrading to Full Value Protection. “We offer Full Value Protection and adhere to strict regulations, reflected in our 90% repeat customer rate,” says our President, Joseph Pollio.
