\"\"Experience, earned over years, expertise and currently available relevant information determine the types of storage for International moves being used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Transit Storage<\/strong>\u00a0–\u00a0This is storage used to coordinated the goods arrive at the destination location. Slow low fuel consumption ocean shipping misses train and truck connections. When the next train or truck is available the in transit storage provides a hand off.

Temporary Storage<\/strong>\u00a0–\u00a0Short term storage of an unknown length. A container damaged and awaiting an insurance inspector, when pets get sick and are placed into quarantine or while waiting for an unscheduled customs inspection. This type of storage always involves extra handling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Short<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Short Term Storage<\/strong>\u00a0–\u00a0Storage, based on a short fixed duration, where that ‘term’ results in lower costs. International moves delay before final delivery, as in stored until the start of the month, when the new home becomes available. Short term storage for that planned period helps keep those costs down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Long Term Storage<\/strong>\u00a0–\u00a0Long Term Storage is based on annual rates. The destination country has apartments and homes smaller than expected. Putting family treasures into storage, either for other family members or ifor returning in a few years, are practical options. Contracting storage for that expected period reduces the storage costs significantly and allows the most stable environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Container<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Container Storage<\/strong>\u00a0–\u00a0Storage left in the originally loaded container reduces handling and adds flexibility. Environmental control not needed makes this a cost effective storage method. These containers are government certified inter modal containers, modified with extra insulation and specially lined, with state of the art load restraint systems.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Storage Concerns<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Processing: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022\u00a0Dust and dirt<\/strong>\u00a0are issues when items are left exposed.
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2022\u00a0Smells<\/strong>\u00a0such as fuel or transportation activities penetrate poor packing.
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2022\u00a0Pests<\/strong>\u00a0like insects and rodents are risks.
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2022\u00a0Break in and theft<\/strong>\u00a0are both potential transit and storage dangers.
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2022\u00a0Handling damage<\/strong>\u00a0from; distraction, shipping vibration, loads shifting or equipment failure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Environmental Stability: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

     Humidity and temperature impact possessions. Lacquer furniture finishes separating from wood as temperature goes down or glue stresses during decreased humidity, are examples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fire and Structural Stability: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Solid concrete and steel structures reduce fire and earthquake risks. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
