When you need it

When Storage Between Moves Makes Sense

Not every move happens in one day. Storage is helpful when pickup and delivery cannot happen on the same day, or when you need part of your home, apartment, or office cleared before everything is delivered.

Your Lease Ends First

Your lease may end before your new home is ready. We pick everything up on move-out day and hold it until you can move in.

A Delayed Closing

When a real estate closing slips, your belongings stay protected with us until the new date is set.

Home Renovations

Keep furniture and household items out of the way while floors, painting, remodeling, repairs, or staging work are completed.

Downsizing

Moving somewhere smaller? Storage gives you time to decide what stays, what goes, and what gets donated.

Temporary Housing

For a short work assignment or a stay in temporary housing, keep your furniture and boxes protected until you return.

Long-Distance Delivery Dates

When pickup and delivery cannot happen together, storage bridges the gap in a long-distance move with multiple delivery dates.

Three simple steps

    Deliver When You’re Ready

    When your home, apartment, or office is ready, we coordinate delivery, unload your belongings, and place furniture and boxes in the rooms where they belong.

Exceptional; we had to reschedule three times because our condo was undergoing various renovations. They were very flexible and coperative. Then the actual day came and Max and his crew were super wrappind, loading, unloading and placing every piece exactly where we wanted. We could not have been more pleased!

I had an outstanding experience with Raimond's Movers, from beginning to end. My initial call with Karina helped me understand all I needed to know, and the communication with her leading up to the move was excellent. Communication with Max during the day of the move was also excellent, and he and his partner worked fast and efficiently. Pricing was very reasonable, and the actual cost was right on target with their quote (no hidden fees).

Prompt, professional, and courteous, sum up my experience. I would use them again, and strongly recommend them. Much thanks to Team Raimond!

Yes. Raimond’s Movers can help coordinate short-term storage during your move when your pickup and delivery dates do not line up.

Yes. Our storage is clean, climate-controlled, and monitored 24/7, and belongings are kept in personal vaults or containers.

Most moving storage runs from about one week to three months, with the option to extend if your plans change. For open-ended storage with no move in progress, a self-storage facility is usually the better fit.

Yes. You can access your belongings if needed. Let your move coordinator know what you need so it can be arranged.

Yes. Our team can help pack, wrap, transport, and coordinate storage for furniture, boxes, and household items until you are ready for delivery.

Yes. We can help wrap, protect, label, and organize items before storage so the final delivery process is easier and more efficient.

The cost of storage during a move depends on several factors: how many items need to be moved and stored, how much packing or wrapping is required, how long storage is needed, and when final delivery should be scheduled. A small apartment move with a short storage gap will usually be priced differently than a full-house move, renovation storage, or long-distance move with multiple delivery dates.

The best way to get an accurate price is to request a moving and storage quote. Raimond’s Movers can review your inventory, pickup address, delivery address, storage timing, and any packing needs to create a plan that fits your move.

Yes. You do not always need to store everything. Many customers choose to store only certain items, such as extra furniture, seasonal items, boxes, office equipment, or belongings that will not be needed right away. This can be especially helpful during downsizing, staging, renovations, temporary housing, or when you are still deciding where everything should go in your new space.

Our movers can help separate the items going to storage from the items going directly to your new home, apartment, or office. Proper labeling and organization make it easier to manage both immediate delivery and final delivery from storage later.

Furniture, fragile items, electronics, mirrors, artwork, lamps, and boxed household goods should be properly packed or protected before storage. Furniture may need moving blankets, stretch wrap, or protective covering, while fragile items should be boxed and labeled clearly. Items that may be affected by dust, movement, or stacking should be prepared carefully before they are transported.

Raimond’s Movers can help with packing, wrapping, labeling, and organizing your belongings before storage. Preparing items the right way helps reduce the risk of damage, keeps your inventory easier to manage, and makes final delivery more efficient when you are ready to move in.

It is best to arrange storage as soon as you know your pickup and delivery dates may not line up. This is especially important during busy moving periods, end-of-month move-outs, summer moves, delayed closings, lease transitions, and renovation projects. Planning early gives you more flexibility with scheduling, packing, pickup, storage coordination, and final delivery.

Even if your exact move-in date is not confirmed yet, Raimond’s Movers can help plan around your expected timeline. Having a storage plan in place before moving day helps avoid last-minute stress and keeps your belongings organized while you wait for your new home, apartment, or office to be ready.

A Practical Guide to Moving and Storage in Boston

Moves rarely line up perfectly. A closing gets pushed back, a lease ends a week too early, or a renovation runs long. A moving and storage company bridges that gap, so your belongings have somewhere safe to go until your next home is ready. Here is how it works in Boston and how to plan it.

What Moving and Storage Means

With moving and storage from one company, the same team packs your belongings, picks them up, stores them, and delivers them to your new address. There is no truck to rent and nothing to move twice yourself. That is the main difference from renting a self-storage unit, where you handle the loading, the transport, and the unloading.

Short-Term or Long-Term Storage

Most short-term moving storage covers anywhere from a few days up to around three months. We offer custom timeframes that match your moving schedule, with the option to extend if plans change. If you need open-ended storage with no move in progress, a dedicated self-storage facility is usually the better and more cost-effective fit. Our guide to short-term vs. long-term storage in Boston compares the two.

When Boston Moves Need Storage

Thousands of Boston leases turn over on September 1, and a one-day gap between apartments is common. If you are caught between leases around Boston Moving Day, short-term storage can take the pressure off. Storage also helps with delayed closings, staging a home for sale, and renovating an older house, where dust and tight rooms make it hard to keep furniture in place.

What Moving and Storage Costs

The cost depends on how many items need to be moved and stored, how much packing or wrapping is required, how long storage is needed, and when final delivery should be scheduled. The moving portion starts from $119/hr for 2 movers, with the truck included. See our full moving rates, or request a moving and storage quote with your inventory, addresses, and timing.

Why Climate Control Matters in Boston

Boston summers get humid and winters drop well below freezing. Those swings can warp wood furniture and damage electronics and upholstered items, and the risk grows the longer they sit. Our storage is clean, climate-controlled, and monitored 24/7, with belongings kept in personal vaults or containers.

How to Prepare Items for Storage

  • Decide what is going to storage and what is going straight to your new home.
  • Label every box with its contents and destination room.
  • Keep items you may need soon together, so they are easy to find.
  • Have furniture, mirrors, and artwork wrapped or padded before transport.
  • Box fragile items and mark them clearly.

Our crew can do the packing, wrapping, and labeling for you. For high-value pieces, ask about white glove moving.

What Not to Put in Storage

As a general rule, keep food and other perishables, plants, flammable or hazardous materials, and irreplaceable items such as important documents and jewelry out of storage. If you are unsure about something, ask your move coordinator before moving day.
