I have a question about our 'moving house' plans, and I would welcome some thoughts about it.

We have a lot of stuff to get rid of, but also a lot of stuff, (furniture, workshop machines, steel and timber stock, heavy equipment, etc.) that will need to move with us.

My thoughts were to somehow find a local place that has shipping container storage, move it all there while clearing the house, and then move the shipping container when we know where we have moved to.

I don't know if there is such an option locally, at both ends.

I'd appreciate any ideas as to how to do this, or if you have companies that you are aware of that would work like this.

We are in the Greater Manchester are of the UK and moving to rural Wales.

Thank you.

Does Pods fit the bill?
They provide you with a nominally sized container at your location, you fill it, then they warehouse it until you want it, when it is delivered to the new location.

Maybe, thank you. I'll add it to the list to look into.

I do wonder how much weight they can hold for my workshop machines, but I suppose I can distribute the weight around a few pod containers.
