Sold your house before the new one closes, or waiting on a renovation to finish before you move back in? Our storage services bridge that gap without living out of suitcases or renting a separate storage unit and coordinating two different companies. New Chapters Moving Company picks up your belongings, holds them in a climate-controlled space, and delivers them again once you give the word.
Storage decisions come down to specifics: what needs climate control, how boxes get stacked so the ones you need first stay reachable, and how a piece should be wrapped for a long stay instead of a straight delivery. We make these calls every week, so nothing ends up buried behind what you need back first.
How Storage Fits Into Your Move
We collect your belongings on the date you choose and build a written inventory as everything goes into storage, the same way we document a full move. From there, your items stay in a climate-controlled facility for as long as you need, whether that is a few weeks or several months. When you are ready, one call sets a delivery date, and the same crew that picked your belongings up brings them to your new address and unloads.
What Our Storage Services Include
Your belongings go into climate-controlled units built to handle Florida’s heat and humidity, not a metal container sitting outside. A written inventory taken at pickup means you know exactly what went into storage and can expect the same items back. Short-term storage covers a gap between homes, long-term storage covers extended situations like an overseas move or a long renovation, and delivery scheduling stays flexible until your new place is actually ready.
What Is Full-Service Storage? And Why Is It Better?
Full-service storage is exactly what it sounds like. It’s the “we-do-it-for-you” solution.
With self-storage, you are the mover, the loader, and the warehouse manager. You are responsible for everything.
With full-service storage, we are.
- We professionally wrap and pad all your furniture in your home.
- We create a professional inventory of every item and box.
- We load all your belongings into our moving truck.
- We transport your items to our secure, private warehouse.
- We keep them safe and sound for as long as you need.
- We deliver them to your new home when you’re ready.
You don’t rent a truck. You don’t strain your back. You don’t lift a single box. We handle the entire process from start to finish. This is the difference between a “double-move” nightmare and a single, stress-free solution.
Why Choose Our Storage Services?
When you trust a company with everything you own, you need to know it’s in good hands. Our storage solutions are built on a foundation of security, care, and convenience.
The Ultimate Convenience: We Do All the Work
This is the number one reason people choose us. Your life is busy. You’re juggling work, kids, and the chaos of a home sale. The last thing you have time for is a second, unpaid job as a mover.
We save you that time and energy. Our professional moving crew comes to you, preps your items just as they would for a long-distance move, and takes them away. When you are ready for them, we bring them back. It’s that simple.
A Secure Storage Facility You Can Trust
A public self-storage unit is just a metal door with a padlock you bought at a hardware store. Our facility is different.
We operate a private, secure storage warehouse. Access is strictly limited to our vetted, background-checked staff. We have 24/7 security monitoring and surveillance systems. Your items are inventoried, tagged, and stored safely in individual storage vaults. This isn’t a “come-and-go” public facility; it’s a professional warehouse built for one purpose: to keep your belongings safe.
Climate-Controlled Storage for Your Valuables
Florida humidity is no joke. A standard, non-climate-controlled storage unit is a “hot box” in the summer. That intense heat and moisture can be disastrous for your most valuable items.
- Wood furniture can warp, crack, or split.
- Upholstery and fabrics can develop mold and mildew.
- Electronics, photos, and artwork can be ruined.
Our climate-controlled storage maintains a consistent temperature and humidity level. This protects your wooden antiques, your leather sofa, your family photos, and your sensitive electronics from damage. We make sure your items come out in the exact same condition they went in.
Cleanliness is a Guarantee
Our warehouse is clean and pest-free. We conduct regular pest control and maintenance. You never have to worry about opening a box and finding an unwanted surprise.

Storage Solutions for Every Situation
While “storage between moves” is the most common reason, our storage services are perfect for many situations.
Storage Between Moves
This is the classic scenario. Your lease is up, or your home sold, but your new place isn’t ready. We bridge that gap. We’ll hold your household goods for a few weeks or a few months, giving you total flexibility and peace of mind. It pairs with our residential movers, so one crew handles the move out and the delivery in.
Downsizing or Decluttering
Moving from a four-bedroom house to a two-bedroom condo? You probably have furniture you love but just can’t fit. Our long-term storage solutions are perfect for holding onto valuable family heirlooms or items you’re not ready to part with.
Home Staging to Sell
Your realtor is right. A decluttered, open home sells faster and for more money. We can help you stage your home by moving a portion of your furniture and boxes into storage. This makes your home look bigger and more appealing to buyers. Once the house is sold, we can move those items to your new home.
Renovations and Remodeling
If you’re redoing your floors or remodeling your kitchen, you need to get your furniture out of the way. We can move your items out, store them safely during the construction, and move them back in once the dust has settled.
Military Moves and Deployments
PCS orders and deployments rarely line up neatly with housing. Storage gives military families a secure place for household goods between assignments, and it works alongside our military moving services.

Feature Self-Storage New Chapters Full-Service Storage Labor You do 100% of the work. You pack, load, drive, and unload. Twice. We do 100% of the work. We wrap, load, store, and deliver. Convenience Low. You have to rent a truck, buy your own pads, and spend a full day (or two) doing hard labor. High. You make one phone call. We handle the rest. Security Varies. You have a padlock. The facility has a gate. Access is public. Very High. Monitored, 24/7 security in a private warehouse with limited staff-only access. Damage Risk High. Most damage happens during loading and unloading by an untrained person (you). Very Low. Professionally trained movers wrap and handle your items from start to finish. True Cost Looks cheap, but adds up. You pay for the unit, truck rental, fuel, pads, and your own valuable time. Clear, upfront value.

When you factor in the cost of a truck rental, your time, and the risk of damaging your own furniture, our full-service option is often the smarter and more cost-effective choice.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do storage services cost?
The cost is based on two things: the amount of stuff you need to store (volume) and how long you need to store it (duration). We provide a detailed quote that covers the entire service, from the initial pickup to the final delivery.
How long can I store my belongings?
As long as you need. That can mean a few weeks between homes or several months during a renovation or an extended transition.
Is the storage climate-controlled?
Yes. Our storage space is climate-controlled specifically to protect furniture, electronics, and other belongings from Florida's heat and humidity.
Is your storage facility licensed and insured?
Yes. We are a fully licensed and insured moving company. We are licensed with the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (License #: IM3643) and the U.S. Department of Transportation (US DOT #: 3881904).
Can I add storage to a move I already booked?
Yes. Let your coordinator know and we will add storage to your existing move plan without having to rebook from scratch.
Do I get an inventory of what is in storage?
Yes. We document your belongings at pickup, and that inventory is checked again at delivery.
What can't I store in your warehouse?
For safety, we cannot store certain items. This includes hazardous materials, flammables (like propane tanks, gasoline, paint), perishable food items, and plants. We will give you a full list before your move.
How do I get my items back?
Just give us a call! We ask for a few days' notice to schedule your delivery. We will bring your items right to your new home.
What if I only need to get one item out of storage?
This is a key difference from self-storage. Because our warehouse is a secure, managed facility, access is limited. We can arrange for access to your items, but it requires an appointment and an access fee. Our service is designed for people who don't need regular access to their items.
Stop Worrying About the "Gap." We'll Handle It.
Your move should be exciting. Don't let a gap in your schedule turn it into a stressful, back-breaking, "double-move."
