Personal and household storage in Echuca
Most homes in Echuca and Moama run out of room long before anyone moves. The car lives on the street because the garage is full. The spare room is a stack of boxes. The good furniture from Mum’s place has nowhere to go.
A drive-up unit at Echuca Storage, 11 Murray Valley Highway, gives you that space back at home without paying for a bigger house. We have 300 units, gate access 8am–8pm, 7 days, and published prices from $115 per 4 weeks. Call (03) 4410 8566.
$1 first 4 weeks for new customers, then the normal rate. 3-month minimum stay, direct debit only, ends 31 Dec 2026.
What people store from home
- Furniture you are keeping but not using: a dining setting, a spare bed, an heirloom dresser, outdoor furniture over winter.
- Appliances: a second fridge or freezer, a washing machine between houses, heaters and fans out of season.
- Keepsakes and family items: inherited furniture, kids’ toys and school work, wedding and baby items you are not ready to part with. Clearing a parent’s home? See aged care and estate storage.
- Sports and hobby gear: bikes, golf clubs, fishing gear, camping gear, kayaks and paddleboards, Christmas decorations.
- Garage overflow: tools, ladders and building leftovers, so the car goes back in the garage.
Bigger things on wheels have their own pages: boat storage, caravan and RV storage and car storage.

Why a drive-up unit suits household storage
- You park at the door. No trolleys, no lifts, no long corridors. Unload straight from the ute, trailer or car.
- Trucks can drive in, so a removalist or a furniture delivery can come straight to the unit.
- Deliveries are accepted. Buying a new couch while the old one is still in the lounge? Staff accept deliveries for customers; call first.
- One site, many sizes. You can switch to a bigger or smaller unit on site as your needs change, when one is vacant.
- Gates open 8am–8pm, 7 days, so you can swap summer and winter gear on a weekend.
Looking after household goods in storage
Units are not climate-controlled, and Echuca has hot summers and cold, frosty winters. A few habits protect your things:
- Get it off the floor. Use pallets or plastic sheeting under furniture and boxes.
- Leave a gap at the walls so air can move.
- Defrost and dry fridges and freezers, then prop the door open slightly.
- Cover, don’t wrap tight. Use breathable covers or old sheets on timber and upholstery; plastic wrapped tight can trap moisture.
- Keep the irreplaceable at home. Photos, important papers and anything heat-sensitive are safer in the house.
- No food, no fuel. Perishables attract pests, and petrol tins, full gas bottles, paint thinner and chlorine can’t be stored.
