Storage for the in-between
A PCS report date that slides two weeks, or a closing that keeps getting pushed back, leaves you needing somewhere for your furniture to sit that is not a stranger’s warehouse. That is exactly the gap this fills, all under one agreement so you are not juggling separate contracts.
How it works
We load your things as carefully as we would for any move, bring them back to our own space off Southside Blvd, and settle each piece into a padded, climate-controlled bay with a full log of what came in. When your orders finally clear or your closing lands, the same crew that packed it comes back and puts it where it belongs.

Reasons Jacksonville families call us
- A sale on a Jacksonville home closes before the next address is actually ready
- A PCS report date to NAS Jacksonville or Mayport shifts and the old lease ends first
- Furniture needs to clear out during a Riverside or Avondale renovation
- A house needs to sit empty while an agent prepares it for showings
- A piano needs a secure spot until the new place or a tuner is ready for it

Half off your first month
Pair a storage booking with a move you book through Jacksonville Budget Movers and month one usually runs half price. Waiting on a report date or a slow closing elsewhere? Dwayne Pruitt builds that extra wait into your plan up front.
No math to redo later
The number in your agreement covers the drive in, however many weeks or months it sits, and the drive back out, so a delayed report date or closing does not change what you owe. Whoever loaded your furniture into the bay is also who unloads it and reassembles it at the new address.
Jared's Word, Every Job
What This Crew Promises in Jacksonville
What's Written Down Is What You Pay
Jared signs off on the number before the truck ever leaves the yard, and that same number is what shows up on your invoice.
Florida-Registered & Insured
Every load travels under our cargo coverage, and if your building office or landlord wants a certificate of insurance on file, we'll get it to them the same day.
Our Own W-2 Crews
The crew unloading at your new place draws a paycheck from us, not a staffing agency — nobody unfamiliar rides along.
No Hidden Surcharges
A bridge crossing, a hurricane-season reschedule, or a narrow original driveway in Riverside costs nothing extra. Book the flat rate, and that's the exact figure the crew collects at your door.
Company-Owned Trucks
Every truck in our lot is titled to us, not leased or subbed out — the crew that wraps your furniture is the same crew driving it to your door.
We Show Up When We Say
Running behind on a job ahead of yours is rare. When it happens, you get a call before you're stuck watching the driveway, and we make the wait worth your while.
Common Questions
What if my move-in date arrives earlier than expected?+
This is precisely the gap short-term storage is meant to cover. Everything moves into climate-controlled bays and comes back out once your keys or your report date are confirmed. One agreement covers it all, so you are not signing a second contract or scrambling for space on short notice.
Is a piano safe to keep in one of your storage bays?+
It will. It stays upright, padded, and boarded in the same bays as everything else, away from summer humidity. Our crew sets it back on its legs the moment it's delivered; getting a tuner out afterward is up to you.
What is the going rate?+
Somewhere between $90 and $260 a month, priced by how much you are storing, and booking a move through us at the same time typically knocks the opening month down by half. Past that first discounted month, the rate settles into one flat monthly charge that already includes both the drop-off and the eventual pickup.
Is there a limit on how long my things can stay in storage?+
Regularly, yes. A fair number of Jacksonville households end up between addresses for a stretch, PCS families especially, and let us hold everything until orders or a closing settle. Bays stay protected right through hurricane season, and everything comes back out whenever you say go.
