Storage between Tucson closings

The closing-date gap is the most common storage call we take. You’re out of the Marana rental Friday, the Oro Valley house you bought closes the next week. That’s exactly what the secure storage at our North Stone yard is for — we load you out, sit on it for a few days or a few months, then deliver once you say the word.

We price by unit size — about one one-bedroom’s worth per unit, two for a 2-bed, three for a 3-bed home. It’s $105 per unit per month, and the first two weeks are free whenever we also handle the load and delivery. Cargo rides $0.60/lb released-value standard, up to $1,000,000 per shipment.

Tucson storage examples

Move Units Per-month rate
1-bed apartment hold 1 unit $105
2-bed condo between closings 2 units $205
3-bed home between sales 3 units $305
4–5 bed or county acreage long hold 4–5 units $400 – $500
Snowbird seasonal hold 2–3 units $205 – $305

Load-in and load-out crew time prices on the regular $155/hr two-mover or $205/hr three-mover basis, flat-rated before we start. A 9-month claim window applies to anything we hold and haul.

Why our yard beats a self-storage unit

Go the self-storage route and you’re paying a crew to fill a truck, haul it across town, and stack it into a bay — then paying all over again to undo every step. With our North Stone yard, we load you a single time, keep it safe, and that same load rolls back onto the truck bound for your new place. One handle, not three. Add it to a residential or long-distance job; pianos and safes get their own racked spot.

Everything folded into your Tucson, AZ flat rate

  • Secure unit storage at our North Stone yard in Tucson
  • First two weeks free with any move we load and deliver
  • Units sealed and inventoried — no shared-bin scramble
  • Pallet-jack handling — nothing dragged across the yard floor
  • Re-delivery on the same flat-rate basis as the original move
  • Racked space for pianos and safes, up to $1,000,000 cargo coverage available

So what will it run you?

Two uniformed movers plus the truck run $155/hr on the clock, or lock the meter shut with a signed Southern Arizona flat figure that puts the entire move on one page

Pads, dollies, shrink-wrap and the careful hand-carries a Sam Hughes bungalow or a Catalina Foothills staircase demand are already in the rate, and so is any Certificate of Insurance a downtown high-rise or an Oro Valley HOA needs on file. Want a third mover on the crew? That moves the hourly to $205/hr.

Common questions on this service

How does yard storage save money over self-storage?
You only pay movers to load once. Your load waits at our North Stone yard, then rolls onto the truck for delivery — no second loading crew, no second truck rental.
Can I grab something I forgot from my unit?
Yes — schedule it with Renata a day ahead and she pulls your unit to the dock for you.
How long can I store?
From a few days to a year. Most Tucson storage runs two to ten weeks while a sale closes, though snowbirds hold seasonally.
Is my stuff safe in the desert heat?
Yes — covered, secured storage with everything padded, wrapped, and inventoried, built for Southern Arizona summers.

A note from Marco

I started 3 Gorillas Moving back in 2014 on one rule I have never bent: the number we put in writing is the number you pay — no curbside add-ons, ever. Every job rolls on our own trucks with a crew I hired and trained myself.

Whether it is a one-bedroom near downtown Tucson or a full house crossing Southern Arizona, you get the same crew and the same written flat rate every time. That steadiness is what keeps Tucson families handing our name to their neighbors.
