Moving Supplies

At LoknStore, we believe that a stress-free move begins with using the proper supplies to protect your valuables. Our certified storage consultants can help you make the right choices when it comes to packaging and protecting your possessions.

LoknStore offers an assortment of moving supplies that you can enquire on their availability, such as:

  1. Moving boxes

Available in various sizes, including 2, 4 and 5 cubes, as well as wardrobe boxes.

  • Small boxes
    These can be used for packing, moving, and storing books, magazines, records, CD/DVDs, video game consoles, and household cleaning supplies.
  • Medium boxes
    These are best for storing larger items like photo albums, small appliances, kitchen utensils, and shoes.
  • Large box
    These are used for storing large but lightweight items, like beddings.
  • Wardrobe box
    Ideal for hanging, packing, and moving suits, shirts, blouses, coats, jackets, etc.

  1. Packing Supplies

We have a variety of moving and packing supplies, including:

  • Sofa/chair covers
    Ideal for protecting chairs from getting damaged or torn during moving and storage (protects against dirt, dust, and water).
  • Mattress cover
    Protect your mattresses from being torn when moving, and from water, dirt, and dust during storage.
  • Stretch film
    Used for bundling and protecting smaller items for storage.
  • Bubble wrap
    For protecting and cushioning fragile items during the move.
  • Ink-free newsprint
    Ideal for wrapping ceramics, china, glassware, and other fragile items.
  • Packaging tape

You also need carton sealing tape to completely seal your boxes and keep them from opening and spilling the contents. This can be in the form of:

  • Single tape roll
    Clear tape that can be used on nearly all smooth surfaces and works well in hot and humid locations.
  • Heavy-duty tape gun and tape rolls
    Self-dispensing tape that is ideal for sealing boxes before moving them to storage

Other moving supplies that you might need include:

  • Carton cutter
  • Locks
  • Tape dispensers

What about moving services?

You will find that most self-storage services are do-it-yourself as far as the physical labour of moving your belongings to the facilities goes. We suggest bringing a family member or friend along to share the grunt work, though you can also seek professional assistance by contracting a mover you trust. If you don’t know one, LokNStore can recommend a mover for you!

That said, we sell moving supplies and provide handcarts and dollies for free so you can easily move your items to the unit. Talk to our team today for more information!
