There are a lot of reasons why someone might need to find storage for sixty days or more in large city like Houston. One reason could be an overseas corporate assignment, or selling a home before finding another. Under such circumstances, keeping property secure would be a priority. In the past, one might have searched for a lot with a row of garage type structures with keys to house belongings in. Today, there are improved options that work much better, are more secure, dry and can even save money on transportation costs.
Today’s options include mobile lockers and long-term vaults. The smaller lockers can be loaded at home, and brought to the storage facility by either the homeowner or the business. The larger palletized vaults that can hold up to 2,000 pounds each are better handled by the movers. Best of all, these palletized crates all look the same, their discreet looks adding to the security of high-end items.
To help with this process, begin by considering the square footage required to hold the household items that will need to be stored. Valuable items should be in a building that has personnel on location twenty-four hours a day. It’s good to look for a business that is properly credentialed and bonded—including its employees, along with one that has been in existence for years or decades. In Houston, a business where one can find good storage options would be JT Melia. The security personnel are included at no additional cost, and the JT Melia Company has excellent containers that have been keeping household goods dry and secure since the 1980’s.
