What is short-term storage?
Short-term storage is a way that you can rent a storage unit for a limited period. Keep your belongings in storage while you need the extra space, and move them out when your plans are complete. The storage could cover a few weeks between tenancies, several months of building work or a temporary move abroad.

Between Tenancies
Moving out before your next tenancy starts? Store your belongings with us for a week, a month, or however long you need.
Travelling or Working Abroad
Heading overseas for a period? Store your belongings securely while you are away, then collect them when you are back.
Life Changes
Bereavement, separation, or a sudden change in circumstances - we understand that life does not always go to plan. Storage can help keep your items safe; giving you one less thing to think about.
How to choose a suitable unit size
Select a unit based on the amount you are storing, rather than the size of your home alone. Two similar homes can contain very different amounts of furniture and other belongings. If you expect to collect items during the rental period, leave a clear route through the unit and keep frequently used boxes near the front.
Review your minimum rental period and payment schedule before confirming your booking. If you need to extend your stay or move to a different size unit, we can organise this from the start of your next monthly payment period - proving you let us know at least 15 days' before your next payment is due.
How much does short-term storage cost?
The cost of storage will usually depend on:
- The location of the storage facility
- The size of the unit
- The length of your stay
- Any required contents protection or insurance
Compare unit sizes and talk to our staff to prevent you from paying for space you do not need. Putting together a list of your belongings will make it easier for our team to recommend an appropriate option.
Short-Term Storage - Frequently asked questions
Can I rent a storage unit for one month?
Our minimum billing period is 1 month, with a minimum stay of 2 weeks. Check the terms shown with your OhMyBox quote before booking, which will include these details and the notice required when you are ready to leave (usually 15 days).
Can I extend my storage rental period?
Yes. If your circumstances change after you move in, let us know as early as possible if you need additional time, and we can organise a contract renewal. If you need storage for longer than anticipated, a fixed term contract for 6 months or more can qualify you for a discount.
Can I access my belongings while they are in storage?
Yes, visit your storage unit anytime during store open hours. For access outside of these times, we offer extended access arrangements upon request. Check your chosen store opening and extended hours to find the best fit for your schedule.
What can I keep inside a storage unit?
Storage units are commonly used for furniture, household goods, packed personal items, equipment and seasonal items. Short-term storage is useful any time you need temporary space for your belongings.
