Storage for New Construction Delays in South Carolina
When a newly built home takes longer than expected, your furniture and household belongings may need storage until move-in day.

How It Works While Your Home Is Being Built
A construction delay does not always have a fixed end date. This process gives you a place to keep belongings while the schedule changes.
Load your container.
Have a STOMO container delivered to your current property and load your furniture, boxes, and household belongings before your move-out date.
Choose where to keep it.
Keep the container at your property if space and local rules allow. If it cannot remain there, arrange for STOMO to pick up the loaded container and store it at our temporary storage facility.
Store your belongings while construction continues.
Keep your items in storage while your builder completes the home. Month-to-month rentals give you flexibility if the expected completion date changes.
Plan delivery to your new home.
Once the property is ready, contact STOMO to arrange the next step for your belongings. Delivery timing and placement depend on your location, site access, and property conditions.
Getting the Container to Your New Home
New-build properties can present delivery challenges. The driveway may not be finished, landscaping may still be underway, or construction equipment may limit access for the delivery truck. These conditions can affect where a container can be placed.
Check any HOA or community rules that apply to temporary storage containers. Before scheduling delivery, contact STOMO with the property address and details about the driveway, ground surface, and truck access. The team can review the site and confirm the available options.
Placement on an unfinished driveway must be approved based on the ground and access conditions.
Moving Help on Move-In Day
Once your new home is ready, you may also need help getting furniture and boxes inside. STOMO and MOVEMO offer moving services across South Carolina, including loading, transportation, and unloading for booked moves.
Ask the team about coordinating moving help with your storage plans.
