Setting Up a Reservation with Big Box Storage: What You Need to Know

Moving, renovating, or relocating for a new job can feel overwhelming. Stress often takes over, leaving you scrambling to figure out logistics. At Big Box Storage, we aim to replace that stress with relief. Our goal is to make portable storage as easy and hassle-free as possible, and we’ve compiled everything you need to know before making a reservation into this guide.

1. How Much Do You Need to Store?

Our portable storage containers are all identical in size: 8′ deep, 5′ wide, and 7′ tall. Each Big Box typically holds about a room to a room and a half of household items.

Not sure how much space you’ll need? Use our Storage Space Estimator on our website. It’s a simple tool that lets you list the items you plan to store, helping you calculate how many boxes you’ll need. Plus, with Big Box Storage, you only pay for what you use! If you order three boxes but only need two, you won’t be charged for the third.

2. What’s Your Timeline?

Think about how long you’ll need to rent a Big Box. Different promotions may apply depending on your rental duration, so having an estimate can help you get the best rate.

• Month-to-Month Flexibility: Not sure how long you’ll need storage? Our month-to-month option offers maximum flexibility.
• Delivery Date: Decide when you’d like your Big Box delivered. Remember, you’ll need to be present during delivery to show the driver exactly where to place the container.

3. What’s Your Address?

It may seem obvious, but we can’t schedule your reservation without the correct delivery address. Many customers aren’t certain of their new address during the planning phase, so jot it down once you have it. You’ll save yourself time and hassle later when updating other companies, too.

4. What Packing Supplies Will You Need?

Having the right supplies makes packing a breeze. Consider how many cardboard boxes, rolls of packing tape, or utility cords you’ll need to secure your items. At Big Box Storage, we’ve got everything you need:

• Padlocks for securing your container
• Packing tape
• Bubble wrap
• Tie-down cords

Just ask our friendly team for details, and we’ll make sure you’re fully equipped for a smooth packing experience.
