Our Warehouse

Professional storage is a crucial factor here at Taylor Moving. Our facility in Burlington, Ontario, offers immense value to our clients. 

Our 50,000-square-foot storage facility is fully equipped with climate-control systems, extensive 24/7 security measures, fire protection, and a dedicated team of warehouse staff that safely secure all goods within sealed, coded vaults with each item carefully loaded to maximize each unit’s space and ensure that each item is appropriately loaded so no item breaks due to poor loading. We offer these services to reduce costs and increase the quality of service we provide you.

If you are considering self-storage, we have some things to keep in mind. Most movers do not blanket your items when delivering them to the unit. This act, alone, can damage your valuable items with scratches, dents, and other damage. When you store with Taylor, we ensure that all items are blanket-wrapped and securely loaded using our expert moving staff to ensure that all risks of damage are minimized throughout the storage duration.

Furthermore, ask yourself the following questions:

  • Do I want to spend the money on renting moving blankets for my items? Most self-storage units require you to purchase or rent padding to avoid damage, whereas Taylor ensures all items are professionally blanket-wrapped before storage.
    • Do I feel confident enough to properly palletize my belongings to minimize friction scrapes, gouging, and other damages? Self-storage requires you to stack and organize your belongings yourself. If done improperly, items can be damaged due to shifting, falling, or friction scrapes. Our expert staff handles the loading and ensures all items are stored properly to minimize risk.
    • Do I want my items insured to protect their integrity? Many self-storage units do not offer climate-controlled options, which can lead to temperature-related damage. Our facility is fully climatized to protect your items from warping, cracking, and mold growth.
      • Is the self-storage unit climatized for summer and winter extreme weather conditions that expand or contract the surface of my items? Many self-storage units do not offer climate-controlled options, which can lead to temperature-related damage. Our facility is fully climatized to protect your items from warping, cracking, and mold growth.
      • Is the location secure? While many self-storage facilities offer locks and fences, they often lack 24/7 monitoring. Taylor provides a fully secured facility with continuous surveillance for peace of mind.
      • Am I going to hire a moving company to deliver my goods out of storage when I am finished? If you’re planning on using movers to deliver your goods out of storage, using a professional moving facility like ours eliminates the extra cost and hassle of transferring your items from a self-storage unit to a truck.

        All these questions are meant to help you understand more about what you want out of a solution. If you feel like you want to evaluate your options, contact a moving consultant via our webform and we would love to help you out.
