Why movers use us instead of self-storage
With a self-storage unit, the move between houses becomes two full moves: house to unit, then unit to house — each needing a van, help and a day of lifting. With Kilkenny Storage, the collection and the final delivery are the service. You pack, we do the rest, and your contents are handled by the same people at both ends.
It also means one phone call when your completion date moves — and completion dates move. Storage runs month to month, so a two-week gap that becomes a six-week gap is an update, not a crisis.
How a between-houses move works
- Quote — tell us the rough contents, the collection address and your expected dates.
- Collection day — we collect your packed boxes and furniture from the old house.
- Storage — everything is logged on an inventory and placed into dry, secure storage arranged by us.
- Keys day — when the new house is ready, we agree a delivery date.
- Delivery — your contents arrive at the new address, matched against the same inventory.
Storing part of a house
Not every move needs full contents stored. Common part-moves we handle: storing furniture while you live in a rental that's already furnished; storing the good furniture during a renovation of the new house; or storing everything except the essentials you'll live out of. Your quote reflects what you actually store — nothing more.
Moving to or from Kilkenny
We collect and deliver across County Kilkenny and also serve Carlow and Waterford, which covers most moves within the South-East. Moving further afield? Ask anyway — delivery distance just becomes part of the quote.
Frequently asked questions
What if my completion date changes?
It happens all the time. Storage runs monthly, so you simply tell us the new date and we adjust — your belongings stay put until you're ready.
Can you store a full house of contents?
Yes — full house contents are one of the most common jobs we quote. Furniture, boxes and appliances together, all on one inventory.
Do you deliver to the new house even if it's outside Kilkenny?
We deliver across Kilkenny, Carlow and Waterford as standard. For addresses beyond that, ask in the quote form and we'll price the delivery leg for you.
Should I book before my sale closes?
Earlier is better — moves cluster around month-end, and a quote costs nothing. You can request a quote as soon as you have a likely date, then confirm when contracts firm up.
Do you pack for me?
Boxes should be packed and sealed before collection day. If you'd like help with packing materials, mention it when you book.
