Preparing Your Things for Storage: Your Questions Answered

Which packing materials should I get before items go into storage?

Buy strong boxes in two or three sizes, so they stack neatly and do not crush. Small boxes suit books and heavy items, and larger ones suit bedding and cushions. You will also need packing paper, good tape and a thick marker pen. Mattress and sofa covers keep dust off soft furniture. We can supply boxes and wrapping, or pack everything for you.

How do I get a fridge, freezer or washing machine ready for storage?

Defrost the fridge and freezer a day ahead and wipe them dry inside. Leave the doors slightly open in storage, so no mould or bad smell builds up. Drain the washing machine and dry the drum and drawer. If you still have the transit bolts, fit them to hold the drum steady. Tell us about large appliances when you book, so we bring the right help.

Can I store my things while I wait for a move abroad or into Europe?

Yes. Many people store with us before an international or European removal. It helps when a lease abroad starts later than your UK move-out date. We keep your things safe near our Wallington base, then load them for the trip when you are ready. Storage and transport by one team means fewer hand-overs.

Can office equipment be stored during a business relocation?

Yes. We store desks, chairs, filing cabinets and boxed files while your new office is fitted out. We label and list each item so it comes back to the right floor and room. Back up your data before computers are packed. Delivery can be timed to suit the day your new office opens.

How do I organise my boxes in storage so I can find things later?

Label every box on two sides with its room and main contents. Keep a simple list, or take photos, as you pack. Put items you may need soon near the front. Stack heavy boxes at the bottom and leave a small path if you plan to visit. A little order now saves a lot of searching later.

How to Prepare Your Things for Storage

A little preparation before your things go into storage helps them come out in the same condition. Clean and dry everything first. Damp items can cause mould, so let fridges, freezers and washing machines dry out with the doors open. Wipe down furniture and empty all drawers.

Pack boxes fully, so they do not crush when stacked, and put heavy items in smaller boxes. Wrap mirrors, pictures and glass with care, and mark those boxes as fragile. Take apart beds and tables where you can, and keep the fixings in a labelled bag. Finally, make a list of what is in each box. This makes it quick to find an item later, and our team can use the list to place the things you may need first near the front.

I had an amazing experience with Elite Moving. They really saved my life. I had an emergency and needed to move within the week without ToR and Vijithan worked late the night that I got in touch to get it all sorted out, and remained in contact the entire time. The move itself went smoothly, and all my goods arrived 2 days after in tact. Definitely recommend!

Incredible service. I moved from Cambridge to London for the first time as a student. I had many unexpected circumstances come up in my moving process, which meant I had to change collection and delivery details twice on very short notice (2 days before the move). On both occasions, Vijithan was quick to respond via email and very accommodating, even willing to beat a competitor’s price when I considered storage services. Communication was fast and clear, with the driver providing ETAs for collection and delivery 1.5 hours in advance. Well worth the money; I would highly recommend their services, as they saved me a lot of stress and headache.

Moving made Elite-ly Easy
I had a very great experience using Elite Moving headed by Viji and Ranjan. We have already moved 4x and so far moving with them has been the best to date. Ranjan had 2 addditional men helping out to move our 1br basement flat from Lee to Bromley. They are experienced movers and no damage was done to our 65in tv, sofa and fridge. They know which items to go inside the van first showing how experienced they are. They have brought blankets with them to ensure no damage is done in taking out the boxes via our flat’s windows and wraps to protect the chest of drawers and fridge. They had strings on the van’s walls so critical items dont move or get damaged. They have been really patient and had even helped me assemble and setup the living room in my new flat. They would’ve helped me assemble the bed but I couldn’t find the screws.

In terms of payment, they prefer cash but the deposit I paid via bank transfer. This was not an issue for me.

Overall, the moving experience was great and will get them when we move again.
