Storage module sizes & capacity

Our standard mobile storage module helps you picture what fits before you book — it’s roughly half of a single garage.

Standard module

11 m³ capacity — similar to half of a single garage

Roughly fits

  • Standard studio apartment
  • Single room, a few boxes and appliances (e.g., bed, fridge, washer, dryer)
  • Garage overflow (tools, bikes, shelves, seasonal items and a few boxes)

Tip: bulky items and access conditions can change the final count — we’ll help you estimate it accurately.

Not sure how much space you need?

No stress — share a quick inventory (or your address + property type) and we’ll estimate the right number of modules for you.

We arrive, we load, we store — our crew loads your items into the modules, then we store them securely until you need them back.

Short-term & Moving Storage in Sydney

Short-term storage when plans change

Need storage for a few weeks? Our mobile storage is ideal for short-term storage in Sydney when you’re renovating, decluttering, waiting on keys, or your move dates don’t line up.

Storage for moving in Sydney (between homes)

If you’re moving house and can’t move everything straight in, we’ll store your goods safely and return them when you’re ready. Perfect for settlement gaps, renovations, or temporary accommodation.

We arrive, we load, we store

We bring the storage module to you and our Smooth Operators load everything safely (padding included). Then we store it in our clean, secure facility for as long as you need — and deliver it back on a day that suits you.
