MOVING STORAGE DELIVERED TO YOUR DOOR.
Storage for moving house that comes to you. Whether you’re waiting on settlement, downsizing, renovating or simply need more time, we deliver a gobox to your door in Melbourne or Adelaide. You pack at your own pace, then we store it or move it to your new home, without the pressure of traditional removalists.
Moving storage from gobox is a steel storage container delivered to your Melbourne or Adelaide home, so the move happens on your schedule, not around a truck booking. Storage for moving house and the move itself, in one service.
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 the gobox to your new home, storing it at our warehouse in between, and collecting it once you’ve unpacked are extra trips priced by distance. Your quote lists every trip. Short-term 14-day hire starts from $170.
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.

The whole process went very smoothly. From initial contact to delivery of box and subsequent pick up all excellent. Helpful, with good communication. Great team!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND - made moving easy, great customer service and very reasonable pricing. Moving houses but with a two week gap between settlements, this made it so simple! I would recommend gobox to anyone, regardless of a need for storage. You can have this dropped off at your current house and pack it for a week or two, then transported to your new home worry free. We loaded a 3 bed home with lots of shed items (tools, camping, garden etc) into the large container - though we didn't load our couch nor our bed as we took it with us for our gap period. If you have a full 3 bed home with lots of shed items, a large and small might do the job!
Amazing!! Communication in the lead up to the gobox arriving was great, but the delivery and pickup service was outstandingly easy and stress free. Ashley was very helpful and offered options onsite, I am extremely impressed. Would recommend and use again for sure.
Gobox was so professional and got the box delivered on the same day that i rang and organised it. Alex was so understanding and went out of her way to help me at the last minute. Well done.
A great experience with the team from gobox, couldn't be happier. Especially want to thank Matt today and also Allie and office staff. Simon also. Many thanks for your help and services. Alison Kindlen
Our experience with Go Box Adelaide was nothing short of exeptional. Our move was not straight forward as we were moving from the suburbs into the city and so we needed to park the Go Box on the street in order to have access to the apartment. The staff on the phone were so helpful and patient and when we needed to see what was possible - the managers came on site to give feedback on where we could place the Go Box. Then Alex - who works in the office contacted the council to help with permits etc. Everything ran so smoothly and they were so great with communication and follow up. I could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you so much to all the team at Go Box - especially Alex. The service and support definitely exceeded our expectations. And to top it off - the cost was very reasonable.
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.
You may also see these called moving pods, moving cubes or removal pods. If you’re comparing moving pods, our moving pods page covers pod sizes, prices and interstate moves.
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.
Moving storage is a portable storage container delivered to your home when you move house. You pack it at your own pace, then it is stored, onsite or in a warehouse, or transported to your new address. Your belongings are packed once and stay in the same container the whole way.
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.
In Melbourne a Medium gobox costs from $240 a month at your place or $299 a month in our warehouse, and a Large from $325 or $375. Delivery is $130 per trip within 40km of our Dandenong South depot; if you’re further than 40km from Dandenong South or Marleston, check your price with our online quote or call 1300 668 688. Moving the gobox to your new home and collecting it at the end are extra trips priced by distance. Adelaide prices are quoted on request.
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.
