Whether you are renovating in Subiaco, downsizing in Fremantle, or waiting for a settlement date in Joondalup, finding a secure place for your belongings is a critical part of the moving process. At Chess Moving Perth, we provide more than just floor space; we provide a fully managed, secure extension of your home.
Located conveniently in Canning Vale, our state-of-the-art facility is designed to handle the unique demands of the Western Australian climate. Unlike standard self-storage where you are left to do the heavy lifting, our integrated moving services mean we can handle the pickup, inventory, storage, and redelivery of your goods—so you never have to lift a finger.
Why Choose Managed Storage Over Self-Storage?
Many Perth residents default to self-storage without realising the hidden costs in time and labour. Chess Moving offers a Managed Storage solution that prioritises the safety of your goods and your personal convenience.
-
We Handle the Logistics: Forget renting trailers or double-handling furniture. Our local removalists collect your items directly from your door and transport them to our secure facility.
-
Professional Packing: Your furniture is wrapped in heavy-duty felt padding and stored in dust-proof modules, protecting them from Perth’s dry heat and dust.
-
Detailed Inventory: Every item is catalogued upon entry. You receive a copy of this inventory, ensuring total accountability for your peace of mind.
-
24/7 Security: Our Canning Vale facility is monitored around the clock with CCTV and restricted access protocols. Only authorised staff handle your belongings.
How We Calculate Storage Costs: Pay for What You Use
One of the biggest advantages of managed storage is the pricing model. In a traditional self-storage unit, you often pay a flat rate for a specific room size (e.g., a 3m x 3m shed). If your belongings only fill half that space, you are still paying for the "dead air" you aren't using.
At Chess Moving, our pricing is volume-based.
-
Efficiency: You are charged based on the specific cubic volume your items occupy. If you only have enough furniture to fill 1.5 modules, you won't pay for 2 full modules.
-
Flexibility: If you remove items partway through your term, your storage costs can be adjusted down accordingly.
-
No Lock-in Contracts: Whether you need storage for 5 days or 5 years, our agreements are tailored to your timeline.
Short-Term, Long-Term and Commercial Options
We offer flexible terms tailored to your specific timeline, whether you need to store a few cartons for a week or a whole household for a year.
Perfect for bridging the gap between properties. If your settlement dates don't align or your renovations are running overtime, we provide a safe holding ground for your goods.
Redelivery available at short notice.
Ideal for interstate removalists clients awaiting a new residence.
If you are moving overseas or downsizing significantly, our long-term options provide a cost-effective way to keep your possessions safe without cluttering your new home.
Competitive monthly rates.
Regular facility inspections.
Comprehensive moving insurance available for the duration of the stay.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I access my goods while they are in storage?
Because we operate a secure, managed facility (not a public self-storage yard), access is by appointment. Simply give our office a call, and we will have your storage modules ready for you to access in a safe, designated staging area.
Do you offer insurance?
Not at all. While you can choose to pack your own boxes, we offer professional packing services where our team wraps and packs your items for maximum protection before they enter storage.
Do I need to come to Dandenong South to drop off my goods?
We highly recommend taking out storage insurance. We offer specific policies that cover fire, theft, flood, and accidental damage while your goods are in our care.
