The
act or process of picking up: the pickup and delivery of goods
or inventory. Of, relating to, or being a commercial facility
in which customers can rent space to store possessions: a
self-storage warehouse.
These storage facilities as stated in the example above offer a specific
service that most self storage or mini storage companies do not offer.
They will deliver to your pick up point, wood or metal storage vaults.
These storage containers or vaults average in size by 5' wide, 5'
long, and 7' in height to 8' wide and up to 40 ' long. You pack them
they pick them up. They are then warehoused at a central location
(usually a 50 mile radius from the pick up point). They do allow access
to the vaults at the warehouse location. Or you can leave them on your
property, great for construction jobs. This type of storage
appeals to owners of personal storage such as household goods,
intermediate storage while relocating or moving, long and short term
storage. These storage facilities are also great for commercial accounts
such as record storage or office storage. Warehouse storage sites are
very economical for long term storage were there is little or no need to
visit your stored goods on a regular basis. This type of storage
tends to be less vulnerable to the temperature because of being
warehoused in a building. Most do not offer vehicle storage, boat or RV
storage. Moving and storage
supplies such as boxes,
packing material
are usually available for purchase. Access hours tend to be limited
and should be arranged in advance. These warehouse storage sites are
typically opened 7 days a week, with access hours from 7:00 A.M. to 7:00
PM with the exception of major holidays.
