Frequently Asked Questions
How many containers will I need?
It is always difficult to calculate exactly how many containers you will need, but as a general rule each container is roughly equivalent to the loading space of a typical transit van.
It is always a good idea to spend a few minutes calculating the volume of the goods you wish to place into storage using our Space Estimator.
There are many ways in which you can maximise the use of space inside of your container:
- Always dismantle flat-packed furniture - this will dramatically decrease the amount of space you will require
- Load your larger items into the container first, you can then find space for boxes of smaller items
- Once you have loaded an empty wardrobe into the container, make use of the space inside it with boxes of small items
- Always pack smaller items in boxes
- Try to use similar sized boxes, as these will stack together much better
- Always load boxes to capacity
