Secure Short Term Storage in Littleton, CO
Last spring, a family on Windermere Street sold their house in four days. That’s great news, until they realized their new place wouldn’t be ready for another six weeks. Where do you put everything in between? That gap period between homes is a common call we get in Littleton, and it’s exactly why we offer short term storage.

You pay for the space and the time you actually use, then you’re done.
Our moving service handles the whole job, from packing up your kitchen to loading the truck to getting your furniture into a storage unit, one of our vaults or your new home. A lot of our customers in Littleton book moving and storage together. Say you’re closing on a home in Ken Caryl but your current lease in Downtown Littleton ends two weeks earlier. Our team moves you out on schedule, holds your things in short term storage, then delivers everything to your new address the day you’re ready. No scrambling, no borrowed garage space, no asking your sister in law to store your couch in her garage.
If your move and your storage needs overlap, it’s worth booking both through the same company. It cuts down on the number of times your things get handled, and that means less risk of something getting damaged.

- Closing dates on the old and new house don’t line up

- Staging a home for sale means clearing out extra furniture and clutter
- Downsizing, and you need time to decide what to keep

- An estate is being settled and the family needs time to sort belongings
Storage to Bridge The Gap
How It Works
You don’t need to commit to a year long contract. Short term storage is billed month to month, so you’re only paying for the time you actually use the space. When your new place is ready, or your renovation wraps up, you call, schedule delivery, and we bring everything back out. Most customers use the service for one to three months, though some need it longer during a slow home sale or a delayed closing.
What You Can Store
Furniture, boxes, mattresses, appliances, seasonal items, and household goods all fit in short term storage. Our vaults are clean, secure, and monitored, so you’re not leaving your belongings in a leaky garage or a damp basement over the summer. If you’re storing anything sensitive to temperature or humidity, like wood furniture, electronics, artwork, or important documents, our warehouse is climate controlled, and protects each piece from fluctuations that can damage them otherwise.
Who Uses Short Term Storage
We see the same handful of situations again and again in Littleton. Young families upgrading from a starter home in Columbine to something bigger near Chatfield. Retirees downsizing out of a house near Historic Downtown Littleton and into a smaller condo. Homeowners near South Suburban doing a full kitchen remodel and needing the dining room cleared out for six weeks. Sellers near Aspen Grove who want their house to look bigger and more organized for showings. It’s a different reason every time, but the need is the same, A safe place to put things while life sorts itself out.
What Short Term Storage Costs
Pricing depends on how much space you need and how long you need it. A one bedroom apartment’s worth of furniture takes less room than a four bedroom house, and will thus require more vaults. We’ll walk through your home or your moving inventory with you, give you a straight number, and let you know what happens if your timeline runs long or wraps up early. No surprise fees tacked on at the end.
Why pick Peak Moving And Storage?
Serving Littleton and the Surrounding Area
We work all over Littleton, from the neighborhoods near Bowles Avenue and Santa Fe Drive to Ken Caryl, and Columbine. An all Throughout the southern Denver metro, from DTC, to South Aurora, Parker, and Lone Tree.
Colorado weather often plays a role in how people plan their moves. Summer is our busiest season, since most families want to be settled before school starts, and that’s also when home sales tend to close fastest, which means more people need somewhere to put their things for a few weeks. Winter storms can also delay a move by a day or two, and short term storage gives you a buffer so a snow delay doesn’t turn into a moving day disaster.
Why Littleton Families Call Us First
We’ve been moving people around town for years, not just moving boxes from point A to point B. That means we know which streets near Downtown Littleton get tight for a moving truck on a Saturday morning, which neighborhoods near Ken Caryl have HOA rules about parking a truck overnight, and how to time a pickup near Aspen Grove around the summer crowds at Hudson Gardens. That local knowledge saves you time on moving day and keeps your plan on schedule.
We also know Littleton’s housing market moves fast. Homes near Governor’s Ranch and Columbine can go under contract in days, which doesn’t leave much time to plan. When a sale happens quickly, short term storage is often the thing that makes the rest of the move possible. We can usually get a truck out within a few days of your call, sometimes sooner, so a fast closing doesn’t turn into a stressful scramble.
