READY TO WRAP IT UP?

TORONTO'S SHORT-TERM STORAGE SPECIALISTS

Flexible, secure, and fully managed for up to six months

Life doesn't always move in a straight line

Sometimes there's a gap between where you are and where you're going, and it's longer than one night. Maybe your new home isn't ready yet. Maybe you're mid-renovation and need the furniture out of the way. Maybe you're staging your home for sale and need a clean, uncluttered space. Maybe a deal fell through, and you need somewhere safe to land while you figure out the next step.

Short-term storage at Six Moving is built for all of these situations. From a few days to up to 6 months, we provide a secure, climate-controlled storage solution that keeps your belongings fully protected until you're ready to have them back.

What makes Six Moving's short-term storage different

This isn't public self-storage where you haul things yourself, share space with uncontrolled public inventory, and watch your rate climb every few months. Our short-term storage is a fully managed, contactless, all-inclusive valet service. We pick up, store, and deliver back when you're ready. Your rate is locked in from day one and never increases. Insurance is included. And your belongings are held in our climate-controlled facility, with 24/7 monitoring and proactive pest control.

Flexible for whatever your situation looks like, Short-term storage at Six Moving covers any duration from a few days up to six months. Need it for longer than that? Our long-term storage service picks up right where short-term leaves off. Not sure which one is the right fit? Just reach out, and we'll help you figure it out.

How it works

Our team picks up your belongings, transports them to our secure, climate-controlled facility, stores them safely for as long as you need, and delivers them back when you're ready. Full inventory list and numbered labelling included, so nothing gets lost, mixed up, or forgotten during storage. You can also add items or request partial deliveries at any time, so your storage works around your life, not the other way around.

They were fantastic. The team arrived on time, did a quick walkthrough, and then got straight to work. They packed our entire 3-bedroom home in just a couple of hours, efficiently and with great care. Everything was well organized and clearly labelled, which made the whole process feel stress-free. Professional, fast, and easy to work with. I would absolutely recommend them and would use them again without hesitation.
