Why Choose SmartWay
Stress-Free Storage To Your Door
Mobile storage at SmartWay Storage Brisbane simplifies your moving and storage needs – we bring the storage units to your door for direct loading and avoiding double handling. This is a great value for money solution as we are halving the amount of work required when comparing to moving in and out of traditional storage.
We have two highly convenient pick up options – our professional loading service (our in house removals team loads for you) or our guided loading service (you do the heavy lifting). If you like, you can also bring your items directly to us and you can park right next to the units (often handy if you are moving from interstate).
This solution can accommodate a small amount of boxes through to 5+ bedroom homes – please get in touch with our friendly team and we will find the right solution for you!

How Mobile Storage Works
Modules Brought to You
Self storage modules are loaded into our purpose built, weatherproof trucks and then brought to your home for loading.
We have multiple size options and this cuts out the need to double handle your belongings – definitely the Smart Way to move and store.
Module Loading
Once on site, our highly skilled, in-house removals team carefully load your items (with removals blankets we supply) into the storage modules. We pack the modules in a way (tetris style) which maximises the space, and minimising the chance of damages. Also as we are reducing the amount of touch points (through no double handling) we are halving the chance of accidental damage.
We also provide the option to load the storage modules yourself for customers seeking to minimise costs. You do the heavy lifting at your home, and still enjoy the convenience of having mobile storage delivered right to your door. Our storage options are made to fit your needs, schedule, and budget without sacrificing convenience or security, whether you want expert help or a hands-on approach.
Module Storage
Once loaded, the storage modules are locked (you keep the keys) and returned to our secure, weatherproof facility.
We believe this is more secure than traditional self storage (where people are coming and going all night), and our facility is gated, locked, alarmed and covered by CCTV. You can book to access your storage unit 6 days per week, otherwise it is stacked in a warehouse and near impossible for break ins.
Benefits of Brisbane Mobile Storage
Value for money
We are a high quality provider offering a great value for money solution by reducing time and effort required when moving in and out of storage. On top of large savings on moving expenses, our storage rates are highly competitive when comparing with most traditional storage sheds.
Accessible with two great locations
SmartWay Storage has two convenient locations, centrally located in Brisbane and the Gold Coast. We can arrange hassle free, pick up and delivery services from all over South East Queensland – up to 250km from our facilities.
Flexible sizing
We can accomodate clients storing just a handful of bags/boxes through to the items from large family homes. We will generally try to bring spare modules to your door, a great backup if you had more than you initially thought (it happens!), which you only pay for if used.
Safe and secure
Our SmartWay Storage facilities are gated, fully secure warehouses with monitored alarms and CCTV. Your storage is only accessible when prearranged – which we argue is substantially more secure than traditional self storage.
Multiple loading options
We provide two loading options to suit your needs – the most popular is our in-house team loading the space for you, but you can also save by opting for a more DIY option. If your items are coming from interstate, we can have modules down for you (or your chosen moving company) to park right next to, indoors, for easy loading.
One stop shop
We handle moving, storage, redelivery, box supplies and even pre-packing if needed – you don’t need to waste time lining up logistics with multiple companies.

Dennis and Alex were masters at fitting all our furniture in those crates. Prompt, efficient and polite.Posted on Google EmmaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My experience with SmartWay has been excellent from the start. I submitted an enquiry and George gave me a call within minutes. He was knowledgeable, thorough and put my mind at ease. On the removal day Alex and Denis communicated with me before arrival and worked quickly and efficiently on a big house move. They were professional, friendly and clearly very good at their jobs. I was genuinely surprised at what they managed to squeeze into those storage pods. I wouldn't hesitate to use smartway again. The service was great and they came in a lot cheaper than other quotes.Posted on Google Amy MinettTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an excellent and very smooth experience with SmartWay Storage - from organising and booking, to collection and delivery. Alex, Jonas and Cruz were all excellent - both quick and careful with my belongings at pick up and delivery.Posted on Google GinaGTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t tell you how impressed we are with the SmartWay Storage. The office staff were patient and happy to assist, they accurately estimated the number of storage modules we needed for our job (30m3); the truck turned up on time, the movers were amazingly careful and fast loading the truck and were cheerful into the bargain. We were so impressed with the truck into which the modules are loaded and I have every confidence that when they re-deliver to our new home in three months, everything will be exactly as it should be. Absolutely recommend SmartWay Storage. UPDATE: Delivered 3 months later and our home contents have been delivered from storage. Everything went like clockwork. Brilliant service, totally stress-free - absolutely recommend. Thank you Adam, George, Jonas and Alex.Posted on Google Ann WoodrowTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Posted on Google Carole LloydTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jonas and Alex were on time and loaded the box quickly and carefully. Oak chairs etc were wrapped for safety. Excellent service so far.Posted on Google Juan David Vasquez IsazaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Mobile Storage FAQs
If you have any other questions or need support, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
Are my goods safe using self storage modules?
The moving and loading is safer than traditional self storage as cutting out double handling reduces risk of accidental damage. When in storage itself, our facilities are gated, locked, covered by CCTV and have monitored alarms. Your units are near impossible for unauthorised entry as they are stacked in the warehouse – only you can gain access by booking this in with us in advance.
What if I only need a small storage container?
We can cater for students only storing a few bags and boxes with our storage lockers, and have 5 different sizes to accomodate all needs.
Are mobile storage modules accessible?
You can access, free of charge, 6 days per week by giving two business days notice to our team to book this in for you.
How big are the modules?
Sizes are as follows:
1m3*: 0.8m x 1.2m x 1.2m
3m3*: 1.5m x 1.2m x 2m
6m3*: 1.5m x 2.4m x 2m
8m3*: 1.8m x 2.1m x 2.1m
10m3: 1.8m x 2.3m x 2.4m
*Brisbane warehouse only.
How do I estimate how many modules are needed?
The fastest and easiest way is to get in touch with us – we do this every day and can guide you in the right direction. We also have a storage calculator on our site which is a handy tool to estimate your requirements.
What if I order too many modules?
You only pay for what is used on the day – another benefit when compared with traditional self storage (where you still pay for a whole shed even if you only half fill it). We actually recommend ordering a spare module as it is great to have a backup and there is no cost involved if it remains unused.
Can I bring/retrieve items from your warehouse?
Yes certainly – some customers will opt to do this, particularly if you are moving to/from interstate. See info here for our Warehouse Move In option.
Are there weight limits on what I can store in a module?
The limit is about 1.2 tonne of contents per module- generally fine for household items. If you have a large quantity of heavy items or boxes, we may need to spread these out over multiple modules – or you could opt for our shipping container option instead.
Can I use the storage solutions for commercial use?
Yes we are a popular option for commercial clients with our convenient pick up options and easy drive up access. For larger commercial needs or if you have heavy/bulky items, consider our 24/7 drive up shipping container options.
