What makes MetroBOX Mobile Storage so much better?
What’s Normal Self-Storage?
– Fixed self-storage facilities allow you to book a storage unit at a storage facility and you have to either organise or do all transport and loading yourself.
– Mobile self-storage brings your storage unit to your address. In most cases, the mobile self-storage units are then left sitting insecurely on your lawn or on the street in front of your home for up to a few weeks while you slowly do all the heavy lifting yourself.
The Secure MetroBOX Advantage
MetroBOX delivers your storage unit to your address, just like other mobile storage companies. But once it arrives, our efficient removals and storage specialists will also carefully wrap, pad and carry all your storage from your house and professionally pack it up in your MetroBOX storage unit.
We won’t leave your MetroBOX unattended in the street in front of your house or office. It’s always loaded on the spot by our fast, professional removalists while you supervise. So your storage unit always stays safe and secure on our truck from the moment we arrive, all through the packing process and right up until it is delivered back to our secure storage facility.
Why Use Professional Movers?
MetroBOX grew out of an established, trusted moving company (MetroMovers) and our removalists are all well-equipped, experienced, trained and highly skilled. That means the same MetroBOX team that brings your storage unit and keeps it safe are also the skilled removalists that professionally load it up quickly and carefully for one fixed, low fee (with split payment options).

Easy Storage Comparison Table
If you’re seriously searching for a great storage solution, then you’re probably going back and forth comparing storage rates and services on different websites. But each company is offering slightly different services, slightly different size storage units and it’s hard to find the right information on all the different websites.
To save you a whole lot of time and trouble, we’ve created this table to clearly compare storage apples with apples: the main differences between 1 month of MetroBOX storage services and the equivalent storage unit space (8m3 – 11m3) from five of the other most popular storage companies in Australia.
