The renovation pack-and-store

I just want one team to pack me, store me, move me, and put me back when the reno's done. Bundle it all.

Mid-30s family doing a major renovation. Needs to clear part or all of the home for 3–6 months while the build happens. Doesn't want to deal with three separate vendors (packers, movers, storage). Wants one team, one quote, three phases. Climate-controlled storage for wooden furniture, photos, art she doesn't want damaged. Easy access in case she needs to grab the kids' winter clothes mid-renovation.

FAQs

The renovation pack-and-store — frequently asked questions

  • How does the renovation pack-and-store work?

    Three phases under one quote: (1) we pack at the home and store contents at our Lake Munmorah depot during the renovation, (2) you live in a rental for the build, (3) we deliver and unpack into the renovated home when it's done. One team start to finish, itemised inventory, photo of every box.

  • Is the storage climate-controlled?

    Yes — particularly important for wooden furniture, photos, art, electronics. Self-storage units (Storage King, Kennards) are dry but not temperature-stabilised. Renovation pack-and-store needs the proper climate control.

  • Can I access my storage during the renovation?

    Yes. We can pull a labelled box for you (kids' winter clothes, photo albums, paperwork) when needed. Just give us a day's notice.

  • How is it priced?

    All-in package across the three phases. Typical cost: $2,500–$7,000+ depending on volume, storage period and the size of the moves either side. Quoted upfront, fixed.

  • Will the same crew handle all three phases?

    Yes — same family, same names, same faces. Important when you're trusting one team with your whole life for 16 weeks.
