A remodel in the upper valley has a few twists. Many homes are second homes, so the owner may be away while a property manager runs the project. Furnishings are often custom or hard to replace. Jobsites on steep or narrow lots leave little room to park a container, and a winter project means snow on everything left outside.
A single storage unit on the main highway solves most of that. Movers or the crew load it once, the inventory goes to the owner, and the house is empty for demo.
Match the unit to what is leaving the house
Enclosed drive-up units
At 12x22 and 19x35, with power and LED lighting, and a motorized 14 foot door on the 19x35. Room for a whole floor of furniture, or furniture plus the owner's toys.
Interior ground units
Ground-level units with power and lighting for furniture, rugs, electronics and boxed fixtures, away from the drive aisle.
Indoor sky lockers
Small indoor lockers for skis, bins, files and the odds and ends that always turn up mid project.
Paved parking
Open-air spaces for a boat, trailer or vehicle that has to leave the garage while it serves as staging space.
Protecting high value pieces
Wrap upholstered furniture in breathable covers, not sealed plastic, and keep it off the floor. Store framed art on edge, never flat, with cardboard corners and blankets between pieces. Photograph each item as it is loaded and note any existing scratches, so there are no questions when the house is reassembled.
If the owner has a fine art or collection policy, ask the insurer whether off-site storage is covered. Keep the most fragile or valuable pieces nearest the door, where they are handled least.
A simple routine for property managers
Before demo
Book the unit, schedule the movers, and email the owner a numbered inventory with photos. Keep one copy taped inside the unit door.
During the project
Use the unit for owner items only, so tools and materials do not get mixed in. If the crew needs space for materials too, consider a second unit or see our business storage
options.
Before the reveal
Schedule the move back after final cleaning, not before. Then end the rental once the house is set. Our storage FAQ
covers rentals and access, and contractors staging tools can read our contractor storage guide.
