How It Works
Simple From Quote to Clean
1
Request an estimate (form, call, or text photos help)
Tell us your storage unit size and how full it is: 5x5 or 10x20, packed to the ceiling or half-full. We can often schedule same-day or next-day service to help you meet facility deadlines and avoid extra monthly charges.
2
We meet you at the unit, confirm pricing, and you approve
We meet you at your Columbus storage facility, evaluate the actual contents and volume, and confirm final pricing on the spot. Let us know if anything needs to be saved or donated.
3
We load everything efficiently and safely
Our crew efficiently empties your storage unit while working around any items you want to keep. We handle maneuvering through storage facility hallways and elevators, working fast to clear the unit.
4
We haul it away and leave the unit swept/cleared
Everything gets hauled to proper disposal or donation centers, and we sweep out your storage unit so you can turn in your keys with the space in good condition. Many facilities require a clean unit for your deposit refund, we've got you covered.
