Elliott provides secure short- and long-term palletised storage solutions for a range of household goods. Pallet storage with a comprehensive inventory of the consignment being stored allows the warehouses to access consignments with ease. Palletised storage ensures minimal handling of goods, keeping them safe from damage from frequent handling.

Our unique, dust-free storage containers are housed in controlled warehouses with 24-hour security. We keep a comprehensive inventory list for your peace of mind and offer easy access to your belongings when you need them.

Whether you are planning on storing a consignment for a few months or more than a few years, our warehouse will ensure its safe storage. Our warehouses are located in South Africa’s main centres, including Johannesburg, Durban, and Cape Town.

Do I have access to my consignment?

Yes. Simply make an appointment with the warehouse during standard business hours to gain access to your consignment. Our trained staff will quickly locate your belongings with a comprehensive and accurate inventory list. Warehouse handling fees apply.

Is Elliott’s warehouse storage cheaper than self-storage?

Yes. Elliott’s warehouse storage solution is considerably cheaper than popular self-storage units, even when considering warehouse handling fees.

Why you should choose Elliott’s storage facilities

When you are undecided about your next move, having your consignment at Elliott’s warehouse enables you to direct your belongings to any national or international destination from its existing storage point at any time of its stay with us. And because your belongings are wrapped, packed, and stored in pallets, there is no risk of damage from handling between moves.

Advantage of palletised storage

Palletised storage is the only way to reduce the risk of in-transit damage and safely store consignments. If your belongings are being wrapped and packed for storage, whether short- or long-term, they can be loaded into pallets at your home. This means that your belongings are moved into the pallet before being transferred onto a flatbed trailer and are only handled for a second time when they are removed from the pallet at their new location. No handlingof your consignment occurs during transit or at the storage facility. Our team utilises forklifts to safely move your goods from our flatbed trailers to the warehouse, and visa versa.

Storage boxing

Elliott’s moving boxes are purpose specific and specially designed for the safe packing and moving of various household items, including books, kitchenware, plastics, clothing, ornaments, appliances, electronics, and so on. We therefore recommend utilising Elliott’s packing service and materials for the safe movement and storage of your belongings.

How does Elliott safely pack my household items for storage?

Elliott’s packing team will pack your goods in a manner that ensures stability during transit and storage. The team strategically packs items of different weight and size to ensure the integrity of the box remains intact. Our boxes are designed to slot into each other ensuring sufficient weight distribution for a safe journey to our warehouse. We do therefore not recommend sourcing your own boxes, either used or new, as they may not be suitable for certain items and may compromise the integrity of the consignment.

What items may not be stored at Elliott’s warehouse?

Items that are flammable may not be stored at our storage facility. We also do not permit any liquids that can cause leaks or spills, oils, and any products such as thinners and paints that can cause potential issues and compromise your consignment.
