    If you do not want to pack the Vault yourself we can recommend professional movers to handle it for you.

    The average 3 bedroom home will fit in a 40 ft. unit.

    Larger homes may need an additional unit.

    You Place your own lock on the unit and you keep the key.

    Choose a sturdy lock with at least a 3/8 inch diameter shackle.

    Containers can possibly be put in your driveway or may be placed on the street.(permit and barricades required for on street placement of container without wheels in Ft Wayne city limits) Click here for city of Fort Wayne web site and information on Barricade permits

     

    Things to look out for when deciding where to place a unit.

    Is the driveway long enough?

    For a 20 ft container to open the doors 26 ft is needed.

    For a 40 ft container to open the doors 46 ft is required. For a 40 ft

    container on wheels with a ramp, 56 ft is what it takes .

    Is the driveway wide enough?

    We require at least 16 ft to place a unit in the driveway. (It is possible

    we may need to drive on your yard, this may be a problem if it

    has rained recently or during the spring,)

     If your driveway is new please check with your builder on how long to

    wait before driving heavy equipment on it. (Cracking of driveway surface

    is always a possibility even if it is  properly aged.)

    Other obstacles that can cause problems are: basketball goals and

    trees growing over the driveway.

    Things to watch for when deciding where to place Vault

    in the street. The Vault cannot be placed next to mail boxes, fire

    hydrants, or in front of your neighbors driveway. It is always a good

    idea to talk to your neighbors to let them know a unit is arriving,

    this may help future relations. The Vault can be put on either

    side of the drive please let us know, before or after drive ,when

    ordering.

    If your home is located on a cul-de-sac or court you may not have

    enough room between driveways to place a unit. If you have a

    planter/island in the middle of the cul-de-sac, it is even more challenging.

    It may be best to put the unit just outside of the circle, on a straight

    part of the street.

    Your stored items are insured against damage, please see contract for additional information.

    There is a one-month minimum rental period, after that it is month to month, for as long as you need the unit.  The last month is prorated by the day.

    You can access your  container Monday thru Friday 7:30 to 4:00.  Please give us a call first so we can have your unit available.

    If possible a weeks notice helps us get you in the schedule so we can deliver your unit when you need it.

    If you have additional questions or require additional information please call 260-749-6611, we will be happy to help.

    We strive to make your move as stress free as possible.
