Preparing a home for sale can feel overwhelming. Between organizing, decluttering, staging, and coordinating open houses, most sellers quickly discover they need temporary storage. Portable storage cubes offer an efficient solution that helps you showcase your home at its best and move more smoothly.
Why Decluttering Matters Before You List
A clean, spacious home photographs better, feels brighter, and helps buyers imagine themselves living there. Removing clutter and excess furniture can even increase perceived home value.
The Storage Challenges Home Sellers Face
- No space to hide extra furniture or seasonal items
- Garages and closets look cramped or overfilled
- Personal items can distract buyers during walkthroughs
How a Portable Storage Cube Helps Staging
Having a cube delivered to your driveway gives you a central place to sort, pack, and store items that shouldn’t be on display. Once loaded, you can either keep the cube on-site or store it at MobileCube’s secure facility until closing.
Step 1: Walk Through Your Home with a Buyer’s Eye
- Remove duplicate seating
- Remove bulky furniture blocking pathways
- Store personal photos, paperwork, and décor
Step 2: Use the Cube as Your Packing Zone
- Keep packing supplies in the cube to reduce mess inside
- Create “donate”, “store”, and “sell” sections
Step 3: Highlight Storage Spaces
Buyers love storage. Keep closets, pantries, and cabinets partially empty to showcase available room.
Working with Agents and Stagers
Real estate agents often recommend temporary storage because it directly improves a home’s presentation. Align cube delivery with photography dates or open house schedules for the best results.
From Staging to Moving Day
Keep the cube through closing and have it redelivered to your new home. You can unload at your own pace without rushing or renting a moving truck.
What Size Cube Do You Need?
Most staged homes only need one cube, depending on the number of items you plan to remove for staging. Larger cubes work for 3-bedroom homes, while smaller options fit apartments or townhomes.
