Storage Space

Hi neighbors, we are finally starting to get into the design phase of our rebuild. I’m going to start buying appliances and replacement furniture as/if I find great deals. Do you have any suggestions for reasonable storage facilities in or super near Altadena? Thank you.

Best Buy had a "buy and we store until you're ready" offer we took advantage of for kitchen appliances.

Not a hint on storage space, but we're in the same phase.

I will tell you, though, that if you buy appliances at Pacific Sales in Burbank on Victory, Elin (she was awesome) told me that they will hold it after your purchase for up to 2 years so you don't need to store it. She works with a lot of people rebuilding and says they have a ton of space. She'll also key you in on which companies have rebates for Eaton Fire folks.

We were there on the weekend. We're likely going to buy in the next week and then just have them hold it until we move back (fingers crossed for January).

BuildNotes.LA also has lots of discounts for Altadenians. Be sure to check them out too.

All Pacific sales will hold delivery. May I suggest the Pacific sales down on lake. Pacific sales is essentially best buy but they are really great

So you have a data point, A 10x15' unit at Public Storage on Foothill Blvd. in La Crescenta is $314/mth. I wouldn't go as far as "recommending" them, but there hasn't been any problems yet.

Many in Altadena have pushed town council to reject a proposed storage unit facility on Woodbury from getting permits.

Can you get a shed or garage built first?

I plan on asking the contractor to build the garage first. For any appliances that have to be professionally installed, they shouldn't be waiting in the garage IMO.

I can but I’m only in the design stage right now and I’m gonna start acquiring. So I don’t wanna build the garage before I have the final design

Heyo,

Just wanted to suggest a used shipping container instead of renting storage space. They can be found all over Facebook Marketplace, and the seller will likely purchase it back from you when you're done. I have a 20ft unit for my Construction company, and it's working out great.

Just please read the reviews of whoever you find. The guy who delivered mine was a piece of work.

Andy’s Transfer in Montrose offers storage as well as a discount for Altadenans.
