Step 2

Careful pickup from the home

On the agreed date, our experienced team comes to the apartment or house. Seniors do not need to carry anything. We handle furniture and personal belongings respectfully and carefully.

Your items are stored safely and insured. When something is needed later, or decisions have been made, we organise return delivery or next steps.

Pricing examples for storage during downsizing or a move

These examples provide guidance. After pickup, we confirm the actual space used so you only pay for the storage space you truly need.

6 to 10 m²Household furnishings for downsizing or a partial house clearancefrom 59,99 € per month

over 15 m²A larger household, multiple rooms, or a full home clearancefrom 199,99 € per month
Note: The space selected during booking is an estimate. After pickup, we measure the actual space used and adjust the square metres accordingly. Longer storage periods may qualify for better rates.

Storage with pickup or traditional self storage?

Traditional self storage can work if someone can visit the facility regularly. During downsizing, a house clearance or a move to assisted living, this is often not practical. Storage with pickup lets you store furniture and personal belongings safely without driving, lifting or coordinating transport. Family members can manage the full process.
