Archive expert Merak launched the new Box Storage service last year, offering goods storage to companies. As always, they do this with the utmost attention to safety and quality service. But it's not just companies that can enjoy their years of expertise. With Box@Home, Merak offers a unique mobile storage concept for the private market.

Are you facing a rebuild? Stumbling over the toy, but don't want to get rid of it yet? Or do you want to clean up your property to get it ready to sell? Recognisable scenarios where extra space is welcome, but perhaps not immediately available. Renting external storage space is the solution. If you choose a mobile storage solution, you'll get all the benefits of Self Storage. Plus, the storage space you need can come to you. So nothing but benefits.

1. Home storage

Hiring external storage space a lot of hassle? Nothing could be further from the truth if you choose a mobile storage solution. Compare it to a taxi service to the airport. Your storage box comes to your home, you load up your stuff and the Box leaves for your destination. The Box can also stay at your home for a while, so you can fill it at your own pace.

2. Done and dusted

Planning your Box far ahead is not necessary. A handy online calculator tells you how many cabinets, chairs or boxes you have. You'll immediately see how many cubic metres it represents and how much you pay for it. The storage box of your choice can then be delivered a few days later. Very handy: you order packaging and protection materials right away.

3. From S to XXL

A big Box or a small one? By calculating exactly what you need in advance, you only pay for the metres you use. Are you going to do some building alterations? Then it may be necessary to store some of your contents temporarily. In an XL Box you can put a large part of your household furnishings, equivalent to about 230 house-moving boxes. For smaller items – a hobby that got out of hand or a toy, for example – a Small Box is ideal. It can hold 12 house-moving boxes.

4. 24/7 in good hands

Out of sight is not out of heart. Once your Box has left your home, your things will stay in good hands. After all, your Box will be placed in an air-conditioned, secure storage room that is monitored 24/7. Here, your things are protected against theft, fire, water damage and vermin.

5. Always at your fingertips

Need your things again? Then you'll get your Box delivered back to your door. Whenever you wish. If you want to get something out of your Box or add something to it in between, it can also be very useful. The Box will either come to you temporarily, or you can pop into the warehouse yourself.

What do you think? Finally, cleaning up that cluttered attic or basement or planning to build an extension? With a mobile storage solution, you get help at home and you're not alone.
