Furniture storage during a move or renovation
When moving, dates don’t always line up, and during a renovation, furniture can get in the way or risk being damaged.
A storage unit gives you a temporary place to keep your furniture and moving boxes until your home is ready. If you need help with transport, Pelican also works with Express Flyt.
