How Kelowna Storage Boxes Help Families During Floods & Fires

Kelowna Storage Containers

When your home is in the restoration process from a flood or fire, Kelowna storage boxes provide an invaluable storage solution.

 

No one wants to imagine their basement sofa floating in a pool of water, or even consider coming home to flames licking a wall of family photos.  But fires and floods happen, and when they do, Kelowna storage boxes can be a big help.

When you have flood or fire damage, there's a good chance parts of your home will be blocked off until a restoration and repair team can come in to clean up the space and make it safe for your family. So, where can you store everything that was salvageable, and for an uncertain length of time?

We suggest MIBOX® Kelowna storage boxes, which provide a safe, easy place for you to store your things during the restoration process.

 

Why portable storage containers are lifesavers during floods and fires:

  • Containers can arrive at your door within hours. In these situations, you often need to get your belongings out of the space quickly so it can be blocked off for restoration crews. MIBOX® Kelowna storage boxes can be brought to your home right away so you can get your salvaged items in a safe place sooner.

 

  • Keep your storage container for as long as you need it. Like renovations, restorations sometimes take much longer than you hope or expect, and that's just the way it goes. With a storage container, you have the flexibility to keep your container for as long as you like after the 30-day minimum, so there‚'s no pressure to have things moved by a certain date or need to pay for storage longer than you need it.

 

  • Load and unload your storage container as you like. If your kitchen or the bedroom floors of your home were struck by damage and you needed to get things out quickly afterwards, there will be items such as winter boots or a microwave you'll probably need to get at, or that you'll want to bring back into the house as restorations are finished. With a storage container, your unit and your things are always just outside your front door.

 

  • Keep your container at home or in one of our secure indoor warehouses. If only a section of your home is damaged and you can remain there, and you have room in your driveway, you can keep Kelowna storage boxes with you. If your home needs to be nearly gutted and/or repair crews will need your driveway access, you can store your container with us in our warm and secure indoor warehouse. Plus, with our indoor and outdoor boat storage services, we've also got room for your summertime water cruiser.

 

At a time of stress and uncertainty, let storage during a fire or flood be the one thing that's simple, convenient and affordable.
