How To Store Your gobox

Follow these tips to make the most of your space and keep everything safe and secure in storage.

Plan Your Space

  • Pack carefully and leave air space around the perimeter to aid ventilation.
  • Use all the available space, especially height.
  • Don’t lean items against the walls.
  • Place frequently used goods near the door for easy access.

Protect the Base

  • Place protection on concrete floors for mattresses, soft furnishings and books.
  • Position soft cloths or cardboard underneath mattresses, couches, boxes and beds.

Stack Safely

  • Place large, heavy, stackable and valuable items at the rear, then work forwards and upwards with lighter, fragile items.
  • Check everything is stacked safely and not too high – falling items can injure you or be damaged.

Long Items

  • Stand long items such as mattresses, beds and table tops on their edges along the walls.

Couches & Mattresses

  • Totally enclose mattresses and soft furnishings in our specially designed Mattress and Lounge covers.
  • Where possible, store couches on their ends to maximise space (except sofa beds).

Mirrors & Pictures

  • Wrap mirrors and pictures in bubble wrap or use mirror boxes – never store them flat.
  • Keep them upright and protected between softer items such as mattresses or bed bases.

Appliances

  • Clean fridges and freezers and keep their doors slightly ajar.
  • Ensure freezers and fridges are completely defrosted and washing machines fully drained.
  • Use the space inside them for extra storage.

Use Hidden Space

  • Make the most of the space inside wardrobes, cupboards, desks and other furniture for extra storage.

Easy Access

  • Pack anything you might need into the gobox last, so it sits near the doors (e.g. golf clubs).
  • Keep important documents, passports, keys, glasses and remotes together in one box near the door.

Label Boxes

  • Label all boxes on every side for easy locating.

Weight Limit

  • Maximum load is 3,000kg per gobox unit; we can't transport or relocate an overloaded unit until it's reduced.

Absolutely exceptional service dealing with Gobox from two years ago until now. Their drivers and customer service reps are so helpful, friendly and easygoing! They are very responsive and communicative. I never had to wait on the phone to speak with someone and my emails have always been responded to within a day. If you need your belongings stored I cannot recommend Gobox enough. The units are clean, well engineered and secure. Delivery is made super easy as well!
