Choosing the Right Go Mini's for Your Move
Planning a DIY move and trying to figure out which Go Mini's container size fits your needs? Picking the right size is key to keeping your belongings safe during the move. Let's check out some simple tips for choosing the perfect Go Mini's container based on the size of your move.
Choosing the Right Size for Your Move
When determining which Go Mini's size is right for your move, consider the following:
The number of rooms in your current home: As a general rule, two rooms of furniture will fit into a 12-foot container, three to four rooms in a 16-foot container, and four to six rooms in a 20-foot container.
The size of your furniture: If you have large or bulky items, such as sofas or mattresses, you may need a larger container than the number of rooms would suggest.
The distance of your move: If you are moving long-distance, it's always better to opt for a slightly larger container to ensure that all your belongings fit comfortably and securely.
Your budget: While larger containers may provide more space, they also come at a higher cost. Consider your budget when selecting the size of your Go Mini's container
