How Does Blue Whale Storage Work

Take it from us: Moving is not without its snags. Sometimes you think your new home is ready to move in, and suddenly something comes up. Maybe it needs a second inspection; maybe it needs to be fumigated. Whatever the case, it can throw a wrench into your entire relocation.

Luckily, Blue Whale offers the services to help you address unexpected obstacles during your move. We’ll store your stuff in our safe storage facilities so you don’t have to worry about anything but yourself and your family. Go ahead, get a hotel; your stuff will still be there when the complications are over.

Maybe you have an expected lag between point A and point B. Don’t worry; your possessions are still safe with us. Simply let us know how long your stuff needs to be stored and we’ll keep it safe while you ensure your new home or office is ready for move-in. That’s just one of the ways Blue Whale has become one of Austin’s most trusted full-service moving companies.

How We Protect Your Possessions

It’s natural to worry about your stuff when it’s not in your direct possession. We don’t expect you to be completely free of worry; that’s just not realistic. What we can do is mitigate potential risks during storage, so you can be as worry-free as possible for as long as your valuables and your family are separated, whether you planned for this or needed storage services unexpectedly.

In the climate-stabilized facility, your valuables are fire and theft-protected. We have high-tech security systems and very high expectations of our warehouse crew. The crew and crew manager will not only pack and maintain your storage, they will also help you rapidly retrieve items from your crates.

Even if you don’t know exactly when you’ll be able to pick up your stuff, it doesn’t matter. Flexibility is just part of our customer-friendly business model. We’re a professional moving company that wants you to be stress-free. Call us any time to schedule pick-up and drop-off, but remember we need 48 hours’ advance notice for vault access. And if you want to store your possessions after you move, we can make that happen; just let us know and forget about the rest. Blue Whale Moving is on your side.

Thank you for sending them. They get 5 stars. -------------- However your company before have moved myself and son. The crew you had move me from San Marcos to storage were alful and so destructive of my things. The crew that just moved me could not believe the other crew had moved and put my furniture (that are antiques) in storage and were not wrapped in plastic or paper. The previous crew to these three men, one of them is John and should not be used to move a dog kennel. I am retired and a widow of Vietnam vet and have never been subject to such rudeness and disrespect as John showed me for myself and possessions. Thank you. Mrs DoaneJulia N.Julia N. ★★★★★ The guys were extremely nice and efficient, got everything done in just a couple hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are you bonded and insured?

Arrow Down

Our movers are not bonded, as they are full time employees of Blue Whale® and are fully insured by us.

What if something gets damaged during the move, what are my options?

Arrow Down

You can always purchase additional valuation or insurance. Just please let us know before the day of the move so we can make sure the proper paperwork has been filed. For more information about that feel free to call the office to speak with one of us.

For any additional information about the Texas regulations, please take a look at the Texas DMV website.

When should I call to book the job?

Arrow Down

We typically ask for one to two weeks’ notice to schedule a move. This time will extend out to three to four weeks advance notice during the peak summer months. It is entirely dependent on our schedule, as we book on a “first come, first serve” basis.

How will you move me out of state?

Arrow Down

Our long distance moves are provided in the same way our local moves are – door to door. Where larger national moving companies will have multiple inventories travel through checkpoints and warehouses cross-country, often changing trucks and crews along the way, your interstate move with Blue Whale® will be handled by the same crew, in the same truck, in just a matter of days. As we are based in Austin, often this method has us returning home with an empty truck and unfortunately that does keep our costs higher than those same national chains.

The weather looks like it’ll be rainy/sleety, will you still be able to move me?

Arrow Down

Provided that the weather conditions are workable, we will absolutely complete your move. Torrential downpours, hurricane winds and other extreme conditions will likely cause us to postpone your move in order to protect your belongings, but light rains or cold weather are not an issue.

How will you move my piano?

Arrow Down

We will bring all necessary materials, such as moving blankets and a piano board. However, we are unable to move pianos up or down any full flights of stairs. Two or three steps at the entry of the home will not be an issue.

Can you move my gun safe? It’s pretty heavy.

Arrow Down

Gun safes can get heavy, and are charged accordingly, however most of the time they do not require an additional bulk item fee. However, if the safe is over 500 lbs in weight it would be outside the scope of what we feel we can safely handle with our equipment and will refer you to safe specialists.

What are bulk items?

Arrow Down

This can be a tricky question and needs to be handled on a case by case basis. A table made entirely of marble would be a good example of a bulk item, as it is above average in size and weight, and would require a specialized crew with the right equipment.

Can you disassemble my pool table?

Arrow Down

We are unable to disassemble and reassemble pool tables. Additionally, we are unable to move pool tables that have a one piece slate top. We will move three piece slate top tables, provided they are disassembled and crated ahead of time.

Will you move me into a different storage facility?

Arrow Down

We will move you and your home anywhere you would like! We do also offer storage in the Blue Whale warehouse, and would be happy to share the benefits of storing your belongings in our facility.

I dont think I can give an accurate inventory, can you come out to my house?

Arrow Down

We offer in-home estimates Monday through Friday, with appointments available between 10 am and 4 pm. While we are glad to provide a complimentary on-site estimate for any home, we strongly recommend them on homes larger than 1,600 square feet.

Do I have a specific sales person that I have to talk to each time I call?

Arrow Down

Not at all! Every member of the sales team can help answer questions, make adjustments, or schedule you for a move.

Should I tip? How much is standard?

Arrow Down

There is no expectation for a tip, however it is always appreciated by the movers to get a little extra afterwards. As far as how much, this can always be hard to know as there’s no “industry standard” to fall back on. What we generally see is about 5% – what that looks like is for a move of $500-$750 the tip total would be about $25 to $40, or $10 to $20 per mover. Bottom line, a tip is a gift and should be based on the quality of service that you received, so go with what feels right.
