Short-term storage solves one of the most common problems in any move: the gap. Closing dates rarely line up perfectly, a new home or office may not be ready when the old one has to be vacated, a renovation might require clearing out a space temporarily, or belongings simply need somewhere safe to stay for a few weeks or months. Whatever the reason, storage is only useful if it’s secure, accessible, and coordinated smoothly with your move. Since 2007, Moving of America has provided short-term storage for New Jersey families and businesses, giving them a safe place to keep their belongings during any transition. Here’s why New Jersey families and businesses trust us for their short-term storage.
Moving of America is a family-owned New Jersey moving company based in Ridgefield, and we understand that timing gaps are one of the most common and stressful parts of moving. Closings get delayed, lease dates don’t align, and new spaces aren’t always ready on schedule. Our short-term storage is designed specifically to bridge these gaps, giving your belongings a secure home for as long as you need, whether that’s a few days, a few weeks, or a couple of months. Because storage and moving are handled by the same team, the whole process stays coordinated and seamless.
Yes. As a New Jersey moving and storage company, we provide short-term storage for families and businesses across the entire state, including Bergen, Hudson, Essex, Passaic, and Morris counties. Whether you're moving locally, relocating from a distance, renovating, downsizing, or simply need a temporary place to keep your belongings during a transition, our storage solutions are available to bridge the gap. Because we handle both the moving and the storage, we coordinate the two together, so your belongings move smoothly into storage and back out again when you're ready, without you having to arrange separate providers or manage the logistics yourself.
Short-term storage becomes valuable in a wide range of common situations. The most frequent is a gap between move-out and move-in dates, when your closing is delayed, your lease ends before your new place is ready, or the timing of a home sale and purchase simply doesn't line up. Storage is also useful during renovations, when a space needs to be cleared out temporarily while work is done, and during downsizing, when you need time to decide what to keep before committing to a smaller space. Businesses often need short-term storage when relocating offices or managing inventory during a transition. In all of these cases, having a secure place to keep your belongings for a short period removes the pressure of forcing everything to happen at once and gives you the flexibility to move on your own timeline.
Storage is only reassuring if your belongings are genuinely safe, and Moving of America takes the security and protection of stored items seriously. Our storage facilities are designed to keep your belongings protected, and we offer climate-controlled options for items that are sensitive to temperature and humidity, such as wood furniture, electronics, artwork, and other delicate possessions. Whether you’re storing a few pieces or the contents of an entire home, your belongings are kept safe, organized, and cared for throughout the storage period.
Yes. Keeping your belongings safe is our top priority when they're in our care. Our storage facilities are designed to protect your possessions, and items are stored in an organized manner so they remain in good condition throughout the storage period. When belongings are moved into storage, our crews handle them with the same care they bring to any move, padding and protecting furniture and carefully packing fragile items, so everything is well protected not just during transport but for the duration of its stay. We understand that you're entrusting us with your possessions, and we treat that responsibility seriously, keeping your belongings secure until you're ready to have them delivered.
Yes. For belongings that are sensitive to temperature and humidity, we offer climate-controlled storage that maintains a stable environment. This is especially important for items such as wood furniture, which can warp or crack in fluctuating conditions, as well as electronics, artwork, antiques, musical instruments, wine collections, and other delicate or valuable possessions. Climate-controlled storage protects these items from the heat, cold, and humidity swings that ordinary storage can't guard against. During the planning stage, we can discuss which of your belongings would benefit from climate-controlled storage, so your temperature-sensitive items are kept in the conditions they need to stay in good condition.
Short-term storage shouldn’t add unnecessary cost to an already expensive move, and Moving of America helps ease that burden. When you move with us, your first 30 days of storage are free, giving you a full month of secure storage without additional cost. For many short-term storage needs, this covers the entire gap, and even when longer storage is required, it significantly reduces the overall expense. This benefit is part of how we make transitions smoother and more affordable for the families and businesses we serve.
Yes. When you move with Moving of America, we include the first 30 days of storage free with your move. For many short-term storage situations, such as a brief gap between closing dates or a short delay in a new space being ready, this covers the entire period at no additional storage cost. And when you do need storage for longer than a month, this free first month meaningfully lowers the total cost. We offer this because we understand that timing gaps are often unavoidable and shouldn't come with a heavy financial penalty. During the initial assessment, we'll go over the details of your storage needs and any costs beyond the first month, so you have a clear picture from the start.
If your storage needs extend beyond the first free month, we simply continue to keep your belongings safe for as long as you require, with clear pricing for the additional time. We understand that transitions don't always resolve on a fixed schedule, a closing might be delayed further, a renovation might run long, or a decision might take more time, and our storage is flexible enough to accommodate that. There's no pressure to rush your belongings out before you're ready. During the initial assessment, we'll explain the costs for storage beyond the first 30 days so you can plan accordingly, and we'll keep your belongings protected and organized until the moment you're ready to have them delivered.
One of the biggest advantages of storing with your mover is that everything stays under one roof. Moving of America handles the move into storage, the storage itself, and the delivery out of storage as a single, coordinated process. There’s no need to hire separate companies, transfer belongings between providers, or manage the logistics yourself. Your dedicated Moving Advisor oversees the whole process, so the transition into and out of storage is smooth and hassle-free.
Yes, and this seamless coordination is one of the biggest benefits of storing with us. We handle the entire process as a single, connected service: our crews carefully move your belongings from your home or office into storage, keep them safe throughout the storage period, and then deliver them to your new location when you're ready. You don't have to arrange separate movers for each stage or coordinate handoffs between different companies. Because the same team manages everything, your belongings are handled consistently and carefully from start to finish, and the logistics stay simple and stress-free for you.
Yes. Your dedicated Moving Advisor oversees both your move and your storage, serving as a single point of contact throughout the entire process. This means you never have to re-explain your situation to different people or wonder who to call when you're ready to schedule delivery from storage. Your advisor coordinates the move into storage, keeps track of your belongings during the storage period, and arranges the delivery out of storage when the time comes, all while keeping you informed. Having one consistent contact managing the whole process makes storing with us straightforward and reassuring, especially during a transition that can otherwise feel complicated.
The trust families and businesses place in us to safeguard their belongings during a transition is earned one move at a time. After more than 18 years and thousands of completed moves, our reviews across Google, Facebook, Angi, and Houzz consistently reflect the reliability and care our team brings to both moving and storage. Many of our storage clients come to us because they needed a secure, coordinated solution during a move and found the experience smooth and reassuring, and much of this work comes through referrals from satisfied customers.
Yes. In addition to helping families during residential transitions, we provide short-term storage for businesses across New Jersey. Companies often need temporary storage when relocating offices, managing inventory during a transition, clearing space for a renovation, or holding equipment and furniture between locations. We handle commercial storage with the same security, coordination, and care we bring to residential storage, and we integrate it with the business's move so the whole process stays organized. Whether it's a household's belongings or a company's office furniture, equipment, or records, we provide a secure, flexible short-term storage solution tailored to the situation.
Access to stored belongings depends on the specifics of your storage arrangement, and it's something we're glad to discuss during the initial assessment. If you anticipate needing to retrieve certain items during the storage period, let us know in advance so we can plan the storage in a way that accommodates that need and organize your belongings accordingly. We aim to be flexible and to structure your storage around how you expect to use it, so that your belongings are not only kept safe but also remain practically accessible when your situation calls for it. Discussing your expectations upfront allows us to set everything up in the way that works best for you.
Unlike traditional storage facilities that require 6-month or annual contracts, our short-term storage is flexible, month-to-month. Store your belongings for as little as a week or as long as several months, and you will be in complete control. Need to retrieve items early? No penalties. Want to extend your storage? Just notify us. This flexibility is perfect for uncertain timelines during moves, renovations, or life transitions where you can’t commit to rigid long-term agreements.
Short-term storage shouldn’t mean paying for time you don’t need. Our month-to-month storage solutions let you avoid locking into a long-term contract. Whether you need storage for a week, a month, or a full season, you only pay for the time you use. Adjust your storage duration as your plans evolve with no stress, no hidden fees.
When you need something from storage, retrieval is effortless. Schedule access during business hours with 24-hour notice or use our convenient delivery service to have specific items brought directly to your location. Our digital inventory system lets you identify exactly what you need before retrieval. Unlike self-storage, where you dig through piles of boxes, our organized warehouse system means your items are easily accessible and properly cataloged from day one.
Short-term storage with Moving of America means no truck rentals, no heavy lifting, and no multiple trips to a storage unit. Our professional team handles everything from packing, loading, and transporting to our secure facility to the eventual delivery back to you. Whether you need to rent a storage unit short-term or are seeking cheap temporary storage units, our full-service approach often costs less and eliminates all the physical work and logistical headaches.
Even short-term storage requires proper environmental protection. Summer heat, winter cold, and humidity can damage furniture, electronics, and documents in just weeks. Our climate controlled short term storage facilities maintain consistent temperature and humidity levels, protecting your belongings whether stored for three weeks or three months. This is especially important for items stored during renovations, when dust and temperature fluctuations in your home could cause damage. For those needing secure short-term storage units, our facility offers comprehensive protection.
When you’re already working with us for your move, adding short-term storage is effortless. We load your belongings once, store what needs temporary holding, and deliver everything to your new location when you’re ready, all coordinated by the same team. This seamless process is ideal for those seeking storage units for moving or moving and storage services. One company, one invoice, one point of contact for your entire transition.
Over our decades of caring for our customers’ valuables, we’ve learned that not every move is the same. That’s why we offer flexible moving packages—so you can get exactly what you need and nothing you don’t.

The most common short-term storage scenario occurs when your lease ends before your new home is ready, or you need to vacate before closing on your new house. Typical durations range from two weeks to three months. We move your belongings out on your old property’s move-out date, store everything securely, then deliver to your new address once it’s ready. Our temporary storage for moving and storage-in-transit services eliminates the stress of perfect timing coordination, prevents double moves, and avoids the inconvenience of living in temporary lodging with furniture.
Major renovations, such as kitchen remodels, bathroom additions, and whole-house updates, often require clearing rooms of furniture and protecting belongings from dust and debris. Typical use lasts one to four months. Our furniture storage during a move and temporary storage for home relocation let us store furniture from renovation zones, valuables at risk from construction, and excess belongings while you’re living in reduced space. This protects your furniture from construction damage, gives contractors more room to work, and reduces renovation stress.
Real estate experts recommend decluttering and depersonalizing homes before listing. Short-term storage lets you reduce visual clutter while keeping your belongings safe and accessible. If you need storage for a delayed move-in or short-term storage for an apartment move, we offer convenient solutions. Most customers use storage for two to six months, until the home sells. Store excess furniture, personal photos, seasonal decorations, children’s toys, or office clutter. Staged homes sell 73% faster and for higher prices, according to the National Association of Realtors.
College students heading home for summer need affordable storage for dorm or apartment contents without hauling everything back and forth. Typical durations are three to four months (May through August). We store furniture, mini-fridges, books, clothing, electronics, and bedding. Pickup from campus before finals, secure summer storage, and delivery to your new dorm or apartment in the fall, handled by our team.
Every life transition is unique, and your storage needs should reflect that. At Moving of America, we understand that no two situations are ever quite the same. That’s why our temporary storage solutions are designed to offer maximum flexibility, convenience, and peace of mind, whether you’re in the midst of a move, renovating your home, managing business inventory, or simply need a secure place for your belongings for a few months. We offer flexible storage rental plans and temporary storage for home relocation to ensure your needs are fully met.
If you’re between homes and your move-in and move-out dates don’t align, our short-term storage for moving provides a seamless bridge. We’ll pack, pick up, and store your items safely until your new residence is ready, then deliver them right to your door. For those seeking storage units with moving services or a moving company with storage options, this solution eliminates the stress of double-moving and ensures your possessions are protected throughout the transition.
When you encounter timing gaps between leases or closings, temporary storage between moves is the perfect option. Store your household items for as little as a week or as long as you need, with the reassurance that you’re not locked into a long-term contract. We provide short-term storage for relocation and storage solutions for moving delays, so you can enjoy quick access and flexible delivery options as your schedule evolves.
Renovating or staging your home often requires clearing out rooms or decluttering. Our renovation and staging storage keeps your furniture, electronics, and valuables protected from dust, debris, and accidental damage. We offer packing and storage services, including residential short-term storage, so you can focus on your project while we handle pickup and delivery.
Life doesn’t always stick to a plan. Our month-to-month storage options let you extend or shorten your storage term with zero hassle. Whether your timeline changes or you need more time before your next step, you have complete control over how long your storage lasts.
Businesses often face temporary storage needs for inventory, equipment, or documents, especially during office moves, renovations, or seasonal fluctuations. Our commercial short-term storage solutions are secure, climate-controlled, and accessible, making them ideal for short-term business needs or when you need the best short-term storage companies.
For college students in the New Jersey and New York City area, summer break doesn’t have to mean hauling everything home. Our student summer storage is affordable and convenient, with pickup at your dorm or apartment, and we’ll store your belongings until the new semester begins.

We transport your belongings directly to our secure, climate-controlled facility with 24/7 monitoring. You receive digital access to your inventory and can schedule item retrieval anytime during the storage period.

Once your new home is ready or your renovation is complete, schedule delivery with 48-72 hours’ notice. We deliver everything to your location and place items where you direct.
Pro tip: Flexibility is the key to extending storage or requesting early delivery. Just let us know.
Certain items deserve more than just careful handling. Whether it’s a grand piano, delicate chandelier, or fine art, our trained professionals use specialized equipment and proven techniques to ensure your most valuable possessions are moved safely and securely.
Short-term storage pricing is designed for flexibility without penalty fees. Our short-term storage rental and month-to-month rates reflect the temporary nature of your needs, and we never lock you into long-term contracts.
Combine your move to save on transportation costs. Pack your own boxes to reduce labor fees. Know your approximate duration to budget accurately. Store only essential items to minimize space needed.
Short-term storage is designed for durations from as little as one week up to six months, though we can accommodate longer if your situation requires it. Our month-to-month agreements mean you’re never locked into a specific timeline, can store your items for exactly as long as you need, and avoid penalties for early retrieval or pressure to commit to extended periods. Most customers use short-term storage for 1–3 months during moves, renovations, or home staging. If your needs extend beyond six months, we can transition you to our long-term storage rates for additional savings.
Short-term storage typically costs $175–$650 per month, depending on volume, with most customers paying $250–$400/month for the contents of a typical 2–3-bedroom home. Unlike self-storage facilities that charge separately for the unit, insurance, climate control, and access fees, our all-inclusive pricing covers climate control, 24/7 security, digital inventory, and basic insurance. Additional one-time costs may include pickup ($150–$400), delivery ($150–$400), and optional professional packing ($150–$600). There are no hidden fees, access charges, or penalties for early retrieval. Request a free quote for an exact price based on your specific needs.
You can access your stored items during business hours (Monday–Saturday, 8 am–8 pm) with 24-hour advance notice. For maximum convenience, we offer a delivery service that brings specific items directly to your location within 24–48 hours of your request, no need to visit the facility yourself. Our digital inventory system lets you easily identify which items you need before scheduling access or delivery. While we don’t offer unrestricted 24/7 walk-in access (for security reasons), our flexible scheduling and delivery options ensure you get what you need when you need it without the hassle of driving to a storage unit.
We can store virtually all household and business items, including furniture, appliances, electronics, clothing, documents, artwork, and seasonal items. Our climate-controlled facilities are perfect for items sensitive to temperature or humidity changes. Common short-term storage items include moving boxes, furniture during renovations, excess belongings during home staging, and student dorm contents over summer. For safety and legal reasons, we cannot store hazardous materials, perishable food, plants, pets, illegal substances, or weapons. If you have specialty items like pianos, pool tables, or valuable artwork, mention them when getting your quote so we can ensure proper handling and storage conditions.
Yes, all our short-term storage includes climate control at no additional cost. Even temporary storage requires environmental protection. Humidity, temperature extremes, and seasonal changes can damage furniture, electronics, documents, and fabrics in just a few weeks. Our facilities maintain a consistent temperature (55–80°F) and humidity levels (30–50%) year-round, protecting your belongings whether stored for three weeks or six months. This is especially important during summer heat waves and winter freezes when standard non-climate-controlled units can experience temperature swings that warp wood, crack leather, and promote mold growth. Climate control is a standard feature of all our storage services.
