WHAT IS LONG TERM STORAGE?

Storage measured in months and years, not weeks.

Long term storage is for belongings you want to keep but won’t need for a while.

You might be renovating or rebuilding, working interstate or overseas, downsizing to a smaller home, keeping furniture for a future house, looking after a family member’s belongings or clearing an estate. In each case the question is the same: where does everything go, and how do you avoid moving it twice?

With gobox you pack once. We deliver a storage unit to your property, you load it at your own pace, and we collect the whole unit and store it in our secure warehouse in Melbourne or Adelaide. When you want your belongings back — next year or in five years — we deliver the same unit to wherever you are.

Only need a few weeks? Our temporary storage page covers short stays. The service is the same; the difference is simply how long you keep your gobox.

WHAT PEOPLE STORE LONG TERM

If it fits through the doors and weighs under 3,000kg per unit, it can usually be stored.

Furniture

Lounges, beds, dining settings, wardrobes and outdoor furniture you’re keeping for your next home or for family.

A whole home

Working away, travelling or renting your home out? Pack the contents of the house into one or two units and store the lot.

Family belongings

Keepsakes, inherited furniture and estate contents that need somewhere safe while decisions are made.

Downsizing overflow

The pieces that don’t fit the smaller place but that you’re not ready to part with. See downsizing storage.

Seasonal & hobby gear

Camping, skiing, sporting and hobby equipment, Christmas decorations and the things you use once a year.

Business archives & stock

Records, fit-out materials, equipment and slow-moving stock. See business storage.

PACKING FOR LONG TERM STORAGE

A little extra care at packing time makes a big difference a year later.

  • Clean and dry everything first. Wipe down furniture, empty and defrost fridges and freezers, and make sure nothing goes in damp.
  • Cover soft furnishings. Use mattress and lounge covers, and wrap timber and glass in blankets or bubble wrap.
  • Heavy and sturdy at the bottom. Build from the floor up, keep the load even across the unit and fill gaps so nothing shifts.
  • Leave a walkway if you’ll need access. Put the things you might want sooner at the door end, and label boxes on the side, not the top.
  • Keep an inventory. Photograph the unit as you pack and keep a list of what’s inside.
  • Leave out anything perishable, flammable or hazardous. Food, plants, fuel, gas bottles, paint and chemicals can’t be stored.

STORE @ YOURS OR STORE @ OURS

Most long term customers choose the warehouse, but both options are available.

Store @ Ours
Offsite · secure warehouse

Once you’ve packed and locked your gobox, we collect the whole unit and store it inside our warehouse. Your padlock stays on and the unit isn’t opened. Access is available with 48 hours’ notice.

This is the usual choice for long term storage: your belongings are out of the way and your driveway is back to normal.

Store @ Yours
Onsite · your property

If you have the space and want everyday access, keep your gobox on your driveway or property for as long as you like. Units are weatherproof steel and built to sit outside.

Useful during long renovations or when the unit is doing the job of a shed or garage.

HOW LONG TERM STORAGE WORKS

Step 01

Get a quote and book

Tell us roughly what you’re storing and we’ll recommend a size. Book a delivery date that suits you.

Step 02

We deliver, you pack

Your empty gobox arrives at your property. Load it at your own pace — a weekend or a few weeks, it’s up to you.

Step 03

We collect and store

Lock it with your padlock and give us 7 days’ notice. We collect the packed unit and store it in our warehouse.

Step 04

Delivered back when you’re ready

Months or years later, arrange a delivery and your unit arrives at your door, still packed exactly as you left it.

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!

LONG TERM STORAGE FAQS

Any queries? Contact us online or call 1300 668 688.

Is there a minimum or maximum storage period?

Storage is billed month to month with no lock-in contract, so you can keep your gobox for as long as you need — many customers store for a year or more.

Can I get to my belongings while they’re in long term storage?

Yes. Give us at least 48 hours’ notice and you can visit your unit at our warehouse during access hours (Victoria Monday to Friday 8am to 3pm; South Australia Monday to Friday 8am to 5pm).

Is my gobox stored indoors?

Yes. Units stored with us are kept inside our monitored warehouse with CCTV and controlled access. Your own padlock stays on the unit the whole time.

Can I add more things later?

Yes. Arrange an access visit with 48 hours’ notice, or if you have a lot to add we can deliver the unit back to you and collect it again.

How much can I store in one unit?

A Medium gobox holds 17.4 m³ and a Large holds 23.2 m³. Each unit has a maximum load of 3,000kg. Larger homes usually combine two units.

Are my belongings insured?

In Victoria, insurance isn’t available through gobox, so check whether your home contents policy covers belongings in storage. Contact our Adelaide team about options in South Australia.

What happens when I want my belongings back?

Call or email us with a delivery date and address. We deliver the unit to your door, you unpack at your own pace, and we collect the empty unit when you’re done.

Can the unit be delivered to a different address, or interstate?

Yes. Your unit can be delivered to any address within our Melbourne or Adelaide delivery areas, and we also move units between the two cities. See interstate removals and storage.
