How Mobile Storage Can Improve Your Winter Move

Published: December 17, 2021

So, you’re moving this winter. 

While it may seem like a pain to lug boxes in cold weather, winter is actually a decent time to relocate. It’s not a popular moving season, so you may come across shorter wait times and even moving specials at apartment complexes and moving supply centers. Plus, you are probably less likely to break a sweat moving your items because of the cold temperatures!

As with any time of year, winter is also a great time to use a mobile storage (also known as portable storage) container to help reduce moving stress, save time, and keep more money in your pockets.

Here are five ways a mobile storage unit can improve your winter move.

Get Delivery to Your Door

When you rent a mobile storage unit, you get a container large enough to accommodate all your belongings delivered straight to your door. No having to go out in the cold to rent a moving truck or taking several trips back and forth to the new place in your car. You’re in even more luck if the mobile storage business you use has a sophisticated delivery system like UNITS of Baltimore that allows them to deliver your storage container in the tightest of spaces, so it’s  convenient for you to load your belongings. This means you can place your unit as close to your door as possible and spend less time in the cold transporting items.

Load on Your Schedule

Avoid the stress of living amid boxes leading up to moving day. At UNITS, you can get your mobile container delivered up to a month before your move at no additional charge! That way you can take your time packing up your possessions while clearing out space in your old home.

Get Delivery to Your New Home

When it’s time to transport your items to your new address, your mobile storage unit company can pick up the container from your old home and transport it to the new one for you! All you have to do is schedule the delivery time!

Save Money Over Hiring Movers

Renting a mobile storage unit is often hundreds of dollars less expensive than hiring movers, who often charge by the hour. Plus, it saves you time and money on things like gas mileage, hidden fees, and inconveniences of renting a moving truck.  Take a look at the comparisons.

As described in the sections above, you’ll spend less time in the cold when you sign-up for a mobile storage unit. You won’t have to worry about making several runs to your car because your unit will be delivered close to your front door. You won’t have to take several trips to your new home or to a moving truck facility. You’ll get door to door moving service which frees you from bracing the cold weather for long periods of time.
