What Qualifies as an Emergency Storage Need?
Life is unpredictable. The need for last-minute storage often arises from situations outside of your control. We regularly assist clients facing:
- House Move Delays: A typical scenario where your moving-in date is pushed back, but you must vacate your current property.
- Breaks in a Property Chain: If a sale falls through unexpectedly, leaving you between homes.
- Urgent Home Repairs: Damage from burst pipes, storms, or fire can require a space to be cleared instantly for safety and repairs.
- Sudden Relocations: Job changes or family circumstances that demand a rapid move.
- Business & Commercial Needs: Companies needing secure off-site storage during an unplanned office move or for excess stock.
Whatever the reason, Curtiss offers a rapid and flexible storage solution tailored to the situation.
