Crown Relocations is NZ’s leading moving company.
When looking for long-term storage for household goods, furniture, and vehicles, most people want somewhere secure and with flexible timing. Long-term furniture storage can be needed for several months or over many years, depending on your situation.
Crown Relocations offer secure long-term storage across New Zealand in Auckland, Hamilton, Tauranga, Palmerston North, Wellington, Nelson, Christchurch, and Dunedin. Crown can collect, store and redeliver your items when and where needed.
Crown provides household storage long term, as part of our moving and storage services. Whether you are downsizing homes, storing furniture while overseas, or travelling for an extended period of time, Crown can hold your items in safe-keeping until future plans are confirmed.
There are many reasons why people use long-term storage in NZ to store belongings they don’t need immediately:
Common situations include:
If you’re not sure whether you need furniture storage for several years or just a few months, Crown offers flexibility with your timeframes. We don’t have any fixed-term agreements. So we can offer household storage long-term, from a couple of months, or as many years as you need.
If you’re planning on going overseas to live, work, or travel, this often raises the question of “what do I do with my belongings while I’m overseas?”
Many New Zealanders use long-term storage while living overseas. Storing furniture while overseas gives you time when making future decisions, knowing your household belongings are safely in NZ until your plans are sorted.
Deciding whether to sell belongings or pay for storage while travelling overseas often depends on replacement cost, sentimental value, and how long you are planning to stay overseas.
Items often placed into storage while travelling overseas include:
Items usually sold or donated before leaving include easily replaceable, low value furniture and bulky or cheap household items.
If you need anything in storage sent to you while living or travelling overseas, just let us know and we can arrange for selected or all items to beshipped to you wherever you are around the world.
Crown’s long-term storage process is simple and flexible. We provide storage with movers so you don’t need to do the heavy lifting. When you need storage for longer than 4 weeks, whether during renovations or for a relocation, Crown manages your entire storage process.
Our long-term storage process includes:
You can store a few items or a full household and request redelivery of selected boxes and items, or everything all at once. When you need a moving company with storage facilities in New Zealand, Crown provides safe and secure long-term storage for as long as you need.
Crown’s long-term storage systems are designed to protect your household goods, furniture and valuable items over months or years.
We have a number of protection measures in place, including:
Preparing items properly before storing also helps with protecting furniture in storage, including:
We have packing materials that you can buy for a small additional cost, if you want to wrap your own items prior to storing with Crown.
Items we cannot move or store hazardous items as they present safety risks. This includes gas bottles, flammable liquids, lithium batteries, and perishable food items.
The risk of damage during long-term furniture storage is reduced significantly when your items are packed and stored correctly.
At Crown, we design our storage facilities around NZ with security as a top priority.
Crown’s storage security in NZ includes:
Crown’s major facilities are also licensed by New Zealand Customs and Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI), meeting their strict guidelines for security and access. Our secure and monitored storage facilities give confidence your belongings are stored safely with Crown.
When you store long-term with Crown, we provide flexibility so you can manage storage around your requirements. Your items can stay in our secure storage facilities as long as you need, and if your plans change, they can be sent quickly to wherever you need – including to family members or a third party.
We provide controlled or restricted access to your storage module, enabling retrieval of items even when shipping from storage in NZ to somewhere overseas. If you decide not to come back to NZ, we can easily take care of any international moving from storage, including export packing, custom documentation and international shipping. When you use Crown storage while overseas, we can ship individual items or boxes to you as needed, or your entire household all at once.
If you are moving to New Zealand, and your container arrives before you do, Crown can pick up your shipping container, manage customs clearance, and hold your items in storage in NZ, until you’re ready for delivery.
