Here at Rent-a-Son, we have a 22,000 sq ft warehouse that is perfect for storing your items. This space is climate-controlled and also temperature controlled so, rest assured, your items will be kept at a constant and moderated temperature to avoid any warping or damage. As well, it is kept meticulously clean with pest control systems in place.
The storage unit is alarmed with video surveillance both inside and out to ensure the maximum protection of your items. There is also no public access to the storage facility for security reasons which substantially decreases the risk of theft or loss. With this warehouse option, we have successfully created the ideal space to provide the most stress-free storage option for your prized possessions.
Unlike most storage lockers, we store your items in heavy-duty custom wooden storage crates that measure 7x7x7ft. If you have special items that exceed these dimensions, we also provide a specialized racking area for larger items as well as skids for smaller items. During the payment process, we will simply bill you based on the number of crates that your items occupy. As a part of this full-service experience, we also provide the wrapping and protection of your possessions while in our Toronto storage facility.
During the moving process, your Toronto moving crew will complete a detailed inventory of each and every item that you will be storing with us. Each item will receive a unique tag/sticker to identify it in our system. This ensures that there is a comprehensive record of all items in our care in case of loss or damage while in storage and a copy of this inventory will be provided to you on moving day.

Storage units have many common uses, such as storing furniture during a renovation, keeping seasonal items like sports equipment or holiday decorations, decluttering a home, or providing temporary storage during a move. If you are moving away for a few months or a year or so, a storage unit is a great option for storing your belongings.

If you’re looking to store things like pianos, servers, hard drives, furniture, or fragile equipment, a climate-controlled facility is absolutely essential! It means we maintain a stable temperature and keep the environment at a specified humidity.
For instance, this prevents pianos from going out of tune (though there will be some changes once it’s moved out of your space) and stops papers from becoming damp or discoloured.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a complicated move with items coming from Toronto up to a rural property. The team at Rent a Son was absolutely amazing! They took such care in packing and wrapping all my belongings. I loved that it was the same crew the next day to do the unload 2 hours away. They took as much care in the unpacking, including helping to move many items into a tight crawl space.Posted on Kerry ReynoldsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Brock, Carlos and Wealth were a pleasure to work with…fantastic attitudePosted on Larry RomaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have moved with Rent-a-Son twice and both times the experience has been exceptional. This time, my movers were Trayvon and Pritpal, and like my previous "sons" they were efficient, professional, did everything with care, and were patient as I ran into some issues at my new building which had them waiting for a while while I sorted it out. They were incredible and I would not hesitate to recommend them and RAS for your next move.Posted on F Bowman (princessmombi)Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Rent-a-son are one hell of a team. I recently went through situation which required me to leave my home suddenly. Ericka who was working with me to book a move date to move, as I kept changing locations, was friendly and understanding. She took care and answered all my questions and problems. The movers Ramone and Jowanye are amazing. They were on time, quick, polite, understanding, hard working. They did the entire packing and move in record time and everything was properly secured. Great guys. Will be using them again and will recommend them to anyone.Posted on Matthew ClarkeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wonderful team and company to work with. I’ve worked with this company 3 x now and each time was 5 star service. I’ve worked with Fabio and Jowayne this time. They packed like the pro’s they are. They made a difficult and stressful day easy. They were pleasant to work with, considerate, knew exactly what to do, understood our needs very well and worked fast.Posted on SnowdrenchedTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Move was flawless. This is my second time using Rent a Son and Ramone and Carlos were amazing! So friendly, efficient, and took great care of my belongs. The move took less than the 7.5hrs booked so I saved a bit of $$. At this point I would always use Rent a Son.
