Storage facility in SG

jetta SG

Can anyone recommend a good long term storage facility in Sg? I need to store some stuff for 2 years. TIA!

lots of them.. there's one near my place around Clementi, there's one along keppel and there's even one at IMM..

just how much stuff do you want to store? if i'm at IMM, i'll pop by and ask them their rates

Thanks bear! Mum has to store some stuff like a 3 seater sofa, queen size bed, 5ft x 1ft x 2 ft tv stand, some kitchen items, laundry pole, some fold up chairs, etc. She has to wait 2 years for her hdb rental. While she waits she has to rent a room, which explains the need for long term storage.

okay.. i'll go try to calculate that... i'll be at IMM maybe in the weekend

Thanks so much bear! I just spoke with Mum and she's frustrated with the moving process. I wish the buyer had given me more than the 2K they did. Then I'd be able to fly back and help Mum sort things out. I'm going to ask my realtor what he thinks. Vk told me her buyer gave her 10K.

What do you mean your buyer only give you 2k? Thats like.....not even enough as a deposit! Must drop 5k at least to cover the sale transaction procedures!

My buyer gave me 5k cash, then it was stated as the transaction fee in the 1st appointment so its minus out from the last cheue hdb gives me.

he later give me another 5k for covering the price we agreed on.

Leave the items for the new buyer, let them either buy over the furnishings or just sell/give them away.

When your mom buys a new place, she will rather buy new furnitures instead of having to cart the stuffs from storage again.

trust me, I moved house 14 times before I turned 21, and now being homeless, I know the feeling of letting go of stuffs.

I at least had a two year headstart at clearing the house of stuffs because it took me this long to make up my mind and sell.

Haiz vk, let me call you and elaborate. Too much to say here.

It's about SGD 200.00 / mth for mine. My storage space can store about 45-50 cartons and it's not completely full. We get to lock the room with our own lock and the storage staff do not have access to our space. We are also given a card so that we can access the secure facility 24/7.

I'm hanging on to my storage space only cause I'm still in limbo - not quite sure yet whether I'll be here for good or not. As long as I'm not quite sure that I'll retire and live in Australia, it doesn't make sense to ship my stuff over.

However, in your case, if you are sure that you won't be returning to SG to reside here permanently, it's better to just give / sell away your stuff because paying for storage fees is like having your funds drained with an open tap. I try not to think about it because ... well ... I just try not to think about it.

I also wanna know! You nebber talk to me anymore!

How ah... my tears tactic worked or not? Did my manipulation tactics work?!

The storage centre can take furnitures? Or just things in cartons?

Keii SG

I personally never knew such services existed.

And I was thinking storage in terms of epic proportions!

viciouskitty74 SG

The idea about storage.

If you put things in there and dont take it out in a year, can junk them.

There are various sizes available. They range from little cubes that allows you to store files and paperwork and books to semi-garage sizes where people store their entire furniture collection and what-not.
