Getting ready to move? Let’s be honest, it can also be a bit of a headache. Between packing fragile items, figuring out where your big sofa fits, and keeping track of everything, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. 

From XS (<32 sq ft) to XL (>160 sq ft), StorHub units come with 24/7 access, climate control, and clear pricing so you can focus on the fun part of moving in! 

1. Figure Out Your Storage Needs 

Before you even pack, take a moment to plan. Knowing what you need saves time, money, and stress. 

  • Make a list: Furniture, electronics, clothes, kitchen stuff, documents and what do you really need immediately? 
  • Choose the right unit: XS & S for small boxes, M & L for appliances and furniture, XL for big moves. 
  • Pro Tip: Use StorHub Malaysia’s Size Estimator to pick the perfect fit. 

2. Pack Like a Pro 

Packing doesn’t have to be chaos. Follow these tips: 

  • Gather supplies: Boxes, bubble wrap, blankets, tape, markers. 
  • Pack smart: Heavy on the bottom, light on top; wrap fragile items individually. 
  • Label everything: Room + content = instant clarity. 

Bonus: StorHub provides trolleys and packing materials, so moving and storing your items is easier and safer. 

3. Keep Your Items Safe 

Don’t risk damage or theft, protect your stuff with: 

  • Climate-Controlled Units: Malaysia’s humidity can ruin wood, electronics, and documents. These units keep your belongings dry and safe. 
  • 24/7 Security: CCTV, pin-code access, and on-site staff ensure only you can access your storage. 
  • Why it matters: Your valuables stay in top condition, and you can relax knowing everything’s protected. 

4. Organize Your Storage Unit 

A tidy unit = easy life later. 

  • Label & categorize: Group by type and put things you need often at the front. 
  • Maximize space: Stack smart, use vertical space, and leave pathways for safety. 
  • Quick hack: Snap photos of your layout to remember where everything is. 

 5. Flexible Storage Plans 

Life changes fast. Your storage should be too. 

  • Month-to-Month Rentals: Perfect for short-term storage, no long-term lock-ins. 
  • Adjustable Unit Sizes: Upgrade or downgrade as your needs change. 
  • Easy Payments: Credit/debit cards, FPX, Boost, GrabPay, Touch ‘n Go, no hidden fees. 
  • Promos: Check StorHub Malaysia for discounts or free months for new customers. 

6. Moving Day Made Simple 

  • Confirm your storage booking and payment 
  • Pack essential items separately 
  • Use trolleys for heavy or bulky items 
  • Lock your unit and double-check everything 
  • Take photos of your storage layout for quick access later
