How best to organize the storage of furniture during repairs

In each family, sooner or later this time comes - repair. And besides all the possible problems, one of the issues that may arise even at the initial stage, where to find a place, so that you can ensure the safe storage of furniture for the period of repair.

Why take something out somewhere?

If your apartment is two or three rooms, there will not be a particular problem to move furniture from one room to another, and make repairs in the vacated premises.

Similarly, you can do with the repair in the house, because in fact, the storage of furniture will be free of charge and right at your side. Of course, this is not an option for a one-room apartment, and so it is impossible to repair simultaneously in all rooms if you want to make it faster. That is, consider the time factor. To quickly repair the entire apartment, this method is not the best option, although with its advantages.

Garage, villa and the like

If there is an opportunity, then an inexpensive option would be to pay for transporting things to your own dacha or to put furniture in your garage. This storage of furniture is also somewhat easier, as this is your territory, which you can protect from hacking, and constantly monitor the integrity of the furniture located there. The only thing that is difficult at this point is transportation. Not always a dacha is nearby, and garages, sometimes, stand somewhere far away. Therefore, in this case, you have to fork out for transportation of furniture, or for fuel, if there is a car, or for transportation services and to order a special car.

Option for the house where the apartment is rented

It is likely that in any multi-storey multi-entrance building there is an apartment that is rented. In this case, storage of furniture during the repair can be arranged exactly there. Of course, you will have to pay, and perhaps you will agree on some minimum amounts, which are often large enough, but not higher than the price of renting a rented apartment per month. Take out things somewhere in the country cottage for a long time, and it saves time to work, in fact, over the repair. At times, it will be faster to transport furniture in one entrance, rather than a few kilometers outside the city. Moreover, the dacha is not always available, and in the garage there must be an object for which the premises are intended. If you're lucky, you can also rent a suitable apartment on your staircase , where you can safely transfer all unnecessary items from the repaired premises, without even moving up and down the stairs. So storage of furniture again will be in the circle of your field of vision, and at any time you can go to check its safety. Option for a couple of floors below or above is also suitable, because in any case you have to lower and raise the furniture, if you take it out of the apartment. Even if you do not have such a rentable house in your house, then it is not bad to look for possible options in neighboring houses.

Services in storage of furniture

In large cities, in regional centers and many where else a service is developing that provides temporary storage of furniture for different terms. Companies of this profile purposefully are engaged in the preservation of various kinds of things during the move, repair and even on a business trip, if someone is worried about the safety of their property and is afraid to leave the apartment for a long time unattended.
