Dale J. Cook Moving and Storage, Inc is one of the leading Charleston storage companies. We can provide storage space for your valuables as part of a local or long-distance relocation or as private storage on a monthly basis. Our warehouses are designed to provide safe, secure storage for anything and everything of value, including personal furnishings or business equipment.
Our 40,000 sq. ft. warehouse is located on Cross County Road in North Charleston; all items are stored in wooden vaults.
We will bring a storage vault(s) to your location and load it at your site. When you are ready for your items to be delivered, we again bring the vault and unload it at your location.
This minimizes the number of times your valuables are handled, thus eliminating unnecessary chances for damage. The charges for our storage vaults are monthly and based on weight.
Normal loading and unloading charges will apply.
We can provide full or partial packing services including all of the moving boxes, crates, packing materials and tape at competitive prices that you may need to prepare your items for storage.
On the day of the move you need to be present. There is paperwork to sign and you need to
show the movers exactly what is being moved. After the movers have loaded the truck you will
be ask to do a walk through. That is the time to point out anything that may have been missed
once the truck drives away they are done.
At the unload they will place boxes in rooms based on the rooms written on the boxes
(ie., bedroom, kitchen, garage). Furniture will be placed in the location you specify.
It is helpful if you already have a basic idea where you want furniture placed.
If the movers have to keep rearranging and switching furniture around it will take longer
and you are paying hourly.
You want to make sure animals are in their cat/dog carrier prior to the movers arriving.
Animals are curious and can get underfoot. If your dog isn’t good around strangers please
have them tied up or in their carrier. The moving company cannot transport any live animal
no dogs, cats, fish or reptiles are allowed in the truck.
