Moving is always more work than you expect it to be. Sure, you’ve totally gotten rid of a bunch of stuff over the past few years. And since your last move there were all those garage sales, right? Unlikely. If you’re moving in NYC and you want it to go smoothly, consider a portable storage unit. These handy containers can sit on the street in a convenient spot, where you can fill them up with all your stuff and then wait for it all to arrive on the other end. You have more stuff than you think you do – better figure out how you’ll move it all.
Portable Storage Units vs. Rental Trucks
Most people who move within NYC tend to think of rental trucks first. You rent a truck, you fill it up, you unload it at your new place. Maybe you have to do a couple of trips to get everything, but you’ll save money doing all the work yourself, right? It turns out that the savings are pretty minimal, and the hassle is greatly increased, when you rent a truck yourself. Portable storage units in NYC are not expensive, and once you add up the gas, mileage, and daily extras you’ll need, like insurance, to cover the truck you want to rent, the portable storage units start looking like a deal.
And who wants to drive a big truck, full of your possessions, from one side of the city to another? Driving in NYC is a big enough headache, but driving a big truck can be extra stressful, especially knowing that it’s not your truck but it is full of all your favorite things.
Convenience and More Convenience
The number one reason why people in NYC are starting to consider portable storage units instead of rental trucks is the convenience of it all. You can organize the portable storage unit to be delivered days or even a week in advance of your move. Then as you pack up boxes and realize how much furniture you really own, you can pack it all into the container where it will be secure and waiting for you. When everything is packed up and you’re ready to go, the truck will come to pick up your portable storage container, and it’ll be sitting out front of your new place later that day.
Then you can take your time, moving everything into the new home. Moving is stressful enough, why not let the heavy work be done by a company that provides portable storage units?
