What is DIY Curb-to-Curb Moving?

Ever heard the phrase, “If you want it done right, do it yourself”? While that might not apply to everything (like fixing a car engine or assembling IKEA furniture), when it comes to moving or storage, some of us prefer to handle our belongings ourselves. If that’s you, Big Box Storage has the perfect solution: DIY curb-to-curb moving!

How Does It Work?

It’s simple! Here’s how DIY curb-to-curb moving with Big Box Storage works:

1. We deliver a portable storage container (8′ x 5′ x 7′ Big Box) right to your doorstep.
2. You load your belongings into the container at your own pace.
3. Once packed, we pick it up and deliver it to your new local address, where you can unload it.

This process eliminates the need to rent, drive, and unload a moving truck, making it the stress-free, no-hassle way to move!

What’s the Best Way to Load the Big Box?

Efficient packing is key to keeping your items safe during transport. For detailed tips, check out our blog on Storage Unit Packing Tips, but here’s a quick summary:

• Heavy items go first: Place them on the bottom to create a stable base.
• Wrap fragile items: Use bubble wrap or blankets for protection, and secure them tightly.
• Keep it balanced: Avoid stacking boxes unevenly to prevent shifting during transit.
• Use tie-down hooks: Secure your load using the hooks built into the interior walls of the Big Box.

Need packing supplies? We’ve got you covered! Big Box Storage offers a range of materials like boxes, tape, and bubble wrap to make the process even easier.

What If I Don’t Want to Load It Myself?

Not a fan of heavy lifting? No problem! We can connect you with licensed, bonded, and insured professional movers who will handle the loading and unloading for you. These trusted movers come highly recommended (just check out their Yelp reviews!). Contact our friendly customer service team for referrals.

What Happens if I’m Not Ready to Unload Right Away?

Moving schedules don’t always go as planned, and that’s okay. If you’re not ready to unload your Big Box at your new location, you can store it at our secure facility until you’re ready. Access is available seven days a week, making it easy to retrieve your items when needed.
