Furniture storage while you move or renovate

When you hand back the old flat before the new one is ready, or the builders need the rooms empty, your furniture goes into a steel container in Radiofar. The van parks right by the door, only you hold the key, and you can reach your things 24/7.

When you need furniture storage

It’s nearly always a few weeks or months between two flats: the old one is empty and the new one isn’t ready yet.

  1. Move outthe 1stYou hand back the keys to the old flat.
  2. Containerin betweenFurniture waits in Radiofar, under your padlock.
  3. Move inthe 15thThe new flat is ready, the furniture arrives.

Your moving dates don’t line up

The lease on the old flat ends on the 1st and you get the new one on the 15th. Or the buyer wants the keys before your new building has its occupancy permit. Instead of moving furniture twice across town or spreading it around relatives, everything goes into one container.

The removals crew unloads straight from the van into the container, with no stairs and no lift. When the new flat is ready, the same in reverse.

Storing your things during a renovation

New floors, bathroom tiles, painting, new wiring. Builders work faster in an empty flat, and the sanding dust doesn’t end up in your sofa and wardrobe.

Put the boxes you need in the meantime by the container door.

Selling your flat

An empty or half-empty flat looks bigger in photos and is easier to view. Clear out spare furniture, personal things and boxes while it’s on the market.

Once the contract is signed, your things are already packed for the move.

Moving abroad, or coming back

You’re going abroad for a year or two and letting the flat unfurnished, or you’re coming back and still looking for a place. The furniture waits in a container, and you’re not paying rent on a flat nobody lives in.

From there, send us your moving dates and we’ll arrange it remotely.

How much space does a flat need?

A rough estimate for a flat with ordinary furniture, appliances and boxes. If you have lots of books, a workshop or a double set of furniture, go one size up, or build an exact list in the planner on the home page.

A house or a flat over 90 m² usually needs a large container, sometimes with a small one next to it. Call and tell us what you’re bringing, and we’ll work it out together.

How to prepare furniture for a container

Well-packed furniture takes less room and comes out of the container the way it went in. This is the list worth going through before the van arrives.

Van to the door

We don’t do transport, but you can drive a car, van or small truck right up to the container door. If you hire a removals company, give them our address and tell them they unload straight from the vehicle into the container, at ground level, with no carrying.

Beds and wardrobes
Take them apart. Put the screws and fittings in a bag and tape it to the biggest piece so nothing goes missing.
Mattresses
Upright, on their side, in a cloth or breathable cover. Never flat on the floor.
Sofa and armchairs
Cover with a sheet or blanket. Take the plastic off once you arrive so the fabric can breathe.
Fridge and freezer
Defrost the day before, dry it and leave the door ajar so it doesn’t go mouldy or smell.
Washing machine
Drain the hose and filter. If you still have the transit bolts, put them back before moving it.
Glass and mirrors
Wrap in a blanket or cardboard and stand them upright, like books on a shelf, never flat.
Table and chairs
Remove the legs if they come off. Chairs go upside down on the table to save floor space.
Boxes
Same size, heavy ones at the bottom, room and number written on two sides.

The moving van parks at the container door

The lot is in Radiofar, between the Belgrade–Zagreb motorway and Nikola Tesla Airport. You reach the gate without city traffic or hunting for parking, and drive your car or van right up to the container door.

Questions about moving and furniture storage

What size do I need for a two-bedroom flat?

A 50–60 m² two-bedroom flat (or apartment) usually fits the medium container (15 m² of floor). A studio fits the small (7.5 m²), and a three-bedroom flat or a house the large (30 m²). Lots of books or double furniture? Go one size up.

Can the removal company unload straight into the container?

Yes. Their van or small truck parks in front of the door, so there are no stairs or lifts. Just give them our address.

Will a fridge and washing machine fit?

Yes, there’s 2.39 m of headroom. Defrost and wipe the fridge first, and leave its door ajar.

How do I protect furniture if the renovation runs for months?

Put it on pallets or battens, leave a gap from the walls and cover it with cloth or old sheets, not plastic, which traps moisture.

Tell us your dates. The container’s ready.
