MOVING STORAGE DELIVERED TO YOUR DOOR.
Moving house doesn’t always happen in a single day. Whether you’re waiting on settlement, downsizing, renovating, or simply need more time, gobox gives you a flexible way to pack, store and move without the pressure of traditional removalists.
gobox makes moving easier by delivering a storage container directly to your home — so the move happens on your schedule, not around a truck booking.
gobox combines moving and storage in one service: we deliver → you pack → we store or move → we redeliver.
Because the same container carries your belongings from your old home to your new one, you only pack once. There’s no loading a truck, unloading into storage, then loading again — your things stay exactly where you packed them until you unpack at the other end.
Moving across town? Your gobox is delivered, packed at your pace, then moved straight to the new address — one container, one handling, no truck hire.
When the dates don’t line up, load your gobox and we’ll store it securely until your new home is ready — then deliver it when you have the keys.
Take your time deciding what comes with you. Store the overflow in your gobox while you settle into the smaller place — keep, sell or gift things on your own timeline.
Moving between Melbourne and Adelaide? Your packed container travels interstate without being unpacked along the way, and can wait in storage at either end.
Builds run long. Store your household in a gobox for as many months as construction takes — no fixed contracts, delivered the week you move in.
Renovating the new place before you live in it? Keep everything safely stored until the dust settles, then have it delivered room-ready.
Tap to play.
From your old driveway to our warehouse to your new place — this is how your things travel between homes.

The Gobox team were amazing to deal with, and very well priced. If I need mobile storage again, I'll definitely being going back to Gobox.
We booked a box for moving house. I described my desire incorrectly however the team adjusted the booking so the box aligned with our plan. I was very grateful. Thank you for your services
Outstanding service from my first enquiry! This is a business that puts the customer first in EVERY-thing they do. Lovely friendly people who work cohesively to provide exceptional service exceeding my (high) expectations every time. I recommend highly. With gratitude.
This is the 3rd time since 2020 that I have used GoBox and can highly recommend their service. Great value for money and easy to organise.
The ease of service from the initial booking to delivery to pick up was sensational. Great team, great product and great service!
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!
They may look similar, but they’re built for very different jobs: shipping containers are designed to transport freight long distances — moving storage containers are designed to make moving house simpler.
Imagine you’ve packed up your home but settlement has been delayed or the new property isn’t quite ready. Instead of rushing everything onto a removal truck or paying to move your belongings multiple times, a gobox is delivered directly to your door. You pack at your own pace, keep the container onsite or have it stored securely, and arrange delivery to your new address whenever you’re ready.
For most household moves across Melbourne and Adelaide, a purpose-built moving storage container is the more practical choice — flexibility, convenience and secure storage, on your timeline.
When it comes to moving house there are two main options: hire a removalist, or use a portable storage unit from gobox.
Traditional removalists work on strict schedules — everything packed, loaded and moved in a single day, often under time pressure. That means higher costs, rushed decisions and a greater risk of damage.
With moving house storage, you stay in control. The container is delivered to your door, you pack at your own pace with no fixed moving day, and when you’re ready we collect it — delivering it to your new home or storing it securely until you need it. A simpler, more flexible move, designed around your timeline instead of someone else’s.
| gobox portable storage | Traditional removalists | |
|---|---|---|
| Packing time | Days or weeks — your pace | One rushed day |
| Schedule | Built around your timeline | Fixed booking, tight windows |
| Storage between homes | Built in — onsite or in our warehouse | Separate facility, extra transport |
| Handling | Pack once — same container door to door | Loaded and unloaded multiple times |
| Who handles your things | You pack it, you lock it | A crew on the clock |
| Local & interstate | Same service, Melbourne ↔ Adelaide | Costs climb quickly with distance |
The number and size of containers you need depends on the size of your home and how much you’re moving. As a rule of thumb, a Medium fits the contents of a 1–2 bedroom home and a Large fits a 2–3 bedroom home — larger households simply combine containers, most commonly one Large plus one Medium for a three-bedroom house, or two Large for four or more.
Walk through each room and note the big items — beds, couches, dining settings, appliances — then estimate your boxes. If you’re between sizes, the team on 1300 668 688 sizes moves like yours every day and will tell you exactly what your move needs.
Phone us on 1300 668 688 and book delivery. We bring a secure gobox storage unit directly to your home anywhere in Melbourne or Adelaide — no need to hire a truck or travel to a storage facility.
With the gobox at your door, pack at your own pace. Keep the unit onsite or have it picked up when you’re ready — no pressure, no rush.
Store your gobox at yours with unlimited time, store it at ours, or have us move it for you — local or interstate.
No fixed moving day — pack over days or weeks and move when it suits you, not when a truck is booked.
Your belongings are packed once and stay in the same container until you unpack them at the new place.
Settlement delays and rental gaps are no problem — your packed container waits securely until you’re ready.
No trailer hire, no trips to a facility — the container is delivered to your door and positioned where you want it.
One household, one container — nothing split between a truck, a garage and a storage unit across town.
Storage and moving are usually two separate bills. With gobox they’re the same service — store as long as you like, then move.
Sold before you’ve bought, or bought before you’ve sold? Settlement dates rarely line up perfectly — and that gap is exactly what gobox was built for.
Load your belongings into your gobox before you hand over the keys, and we’ll store the container securely until your new home is ready. When settlement clears, we deliver it to the new address and you unpack at your leisure. No motel-room storage units, no moving twice, no paying a removalist for two separate days.
Midweek moves are the way to go. Tuesday to Thursday are the quietest days, making it easier to book a moving company or a gobox container. Plus, traffic is lighter, which means less time on the road and lower costs. Fridays are the busiest, so unless you love stress and delays, avoid them if you can.
Yes, it is. Moving containers are a cost-effective option compared to hiring full-service movers. You pack at your own pace, store if needed, and only pay for what you use. The final cost depends on container size, distance, and extras like storage facility options.
A three-bedroom house usually needs two large moving containers, or one large and one medium gobox container. It depends on how much stuff you have. If you’re a minimalist, one big unit might do. If you’re a collector of “just in case” items, you might need extra space.
Not everything belongs in a storage facility. Food, flammable materials, toxic chemicals, and firearms are a no-go. No live animals or plants, either — your gobox storage unit isn’t a greenhouse or a pet hotel. If it’s dangerous, perishable, or illegal, it shouldn’t be in there.
Our medium storage unit starts at $240.00 per calendar month to store at your place. In addition, there is a $130.00 delivery fee for deliveries within 40km of our warehouse. For an exact price, call gobox and get a detailed quote tailored to your moving and storage needs.
Insurance is not available at your place or in our warehouse in Victoria — you’ll need to check whether your home insurance covers stored goods. In South Australia, insurance is available for purchase both at your place and in our warehouse.
That’s something to check with your local council. Mobile storage is permitted in most municipalities, though you’ll most likely need to arrange a permit before delivery of your gobox.
