The Walteria Renovation Storage Challenge

Last spring, the Martinez family in Walteria decided to finally renovate their 1970s kitchen. They'd lived in their Torrance home near Pacific Coast Highway for 12 years, and the kitchen desperately needed updating.

But here's the problem they faced: where do you put all your furniture and belongings during a major renovation?

Their contractor needed complete access to the kitchen and adjacent dining room. Construction dust, paint fumes, and workers moving in and out meant their furniture couldn't just sit in the living room covered with sheets. They needed real storage.

Why They Chose Portable Storage in Walteria

The Martinez family initially considered renting a storage unit at a traditional facility in Gardena or Carson. But that meant:

  • Renting a truck (probably twice-once to move in, once to get stuff back)
  • Loading all their furniture and kitchen items
  • Driving to a facility
  • Unloading into a storage unit
  • Doing it all again in reverse when construction finished

"We both work full-time," Maria Martinez told us. "The last thing we wanted was spending two weekends loading and unloading trucks. Plus, our contractor said the timeline might change, and we didn't want to commit to a specific move-out date if construction got delayed."

Portable storage solved both problems:

  1. No truck rental-we delivered to their Walteria driveway
  2. Flexible timing-if construction ran late, no problem

How We Delivered Storage to Their Walteria Home

Day 1: Delivery

We delivered a 16' portable storage unit to the Martinez home on a Saturday morning. Their driveway could easily accommodate the container, and we positioned it close to their side door for easy loading access.

Delivery took 15 minutes. Our driver placed the unit exactly where they wanted it, explained how the lock worked, and left them to pack at their own pace.

Box-n-Go Storage & Moving, as Easy as 1-2-3

2We pick up your loaded containerWe Pick Up
3We store or move your containerWe Store/Move

Store on your driveway or inside our secure facility. Load/unload only once. Ground level access.

Days 2-4: Loading

The Martinez family took three days to load their storage unit:

What they stored:

  • Complete dining room set (table, 6 chairs, buffet, china cabinet)
  • Kitchen items (dishes, pots, pans, small appliances, pantry items)
  • Living room furniture they wanted protected (couch, coffee table)
  • About 40 boxes of kitchen and dining items
  • Bar stools, décor, and miscellaneous household items

"Loading over three days was perfect," Maria said. "We packed Friday evening after work, all day Saturday, and finished Sunday morning. No rush, no rental truck deadline hanging over us."

The benefit of ground-level loading: Maria mentioned how much easier it was to load the unit sitting in their driveway compared to using a truck with a ramp. "My husband has a bad back. Being able to walk straight into the container at ground level made a huge difference."

Day 5: Pickup

Monday morning, we picked up their loaded unit and transported it to our secure Torrance facility at 22107 S Vermont Ave.

Their contractor started work that afternoon with complete access to the kitchen and dining room. No furniture to work around, no items to protect from dust.


8 Weeks of Secure Storage in Torrance

The Martinez family's kitchen renovation was scheduled for 6 weeks but ran 8 weeks (construction projects always seem to run a bit long).

Their belongings stayed secure at our Torrance facility:

  • Climate-friendly storage option (they chose this for electronics and wood furniture)
  • 24/7 video surveillance
  • Controlled access
  • Their items never left the same container (never repacked or handled)

"We visited once around week 5 to grab some extra kitchen items we realized we needed," Maria said. "We just called ahead, drove to the Vermont Ave facility, and they let us into our container. Took 20 minutes."

The Flexibility Advantage

When their contractor called to say the renovation would take 2 extra weeks, it wasn't a problem. Month-to-month storage meant no penalties, no rescheduling headaches.

"With a traditional storage unit, we would've had to rent another truck on the original end date, unload everything into our unfinished kitchen, then store it somewhere else for 2 weeks," Maria explained. "With Box-n-Go, we just said 'okay, keep storing it for two more weeks.' Super simple."

Box-n-Go is a mobile storage company. Unlike traditional storage companies, we deliver storage units to the customer. We leave them with the customer for a few days so they can pack at their convenience, and once they're done, we come back, pick up the units, and store them at our secure, centrally located warehouse. Once in the warehouse, your belongings are accessible to you Monday through Saturday. Access is free, all you need to do is give us a call, and we'll move your units to the access area, where you can drive right up to them and do whatever you need to do.

Customer: I was doing extensive research online. After I read customer reviews, I checked out the rates, which were very competitive, in many cases better than anyone else out there. I placed my order online, and within 48 hours my containers were delivered to me. I was honestly surprised how much stuff fit into the container. Overall, the experience was wonderful. I honestly would recommend it to anybody.

Box-n-Go is a very customer-oriented company. We do everything possible to make sure customer needs are met. We know moving and storage can be a very difficult process, a very difficult part of a customer's life, so we try to accommodate customer needs as best we can, to make the process as easy as possible. So give us a call or visit us online at boxngo.com.

When the kitchen renovation finally completed, we delivered the storage unit back to their Walteria driveway on a Saturday morning.

The Martinez family unloaded over the weekend-again, at their own pace with ground-level access.

"Unloading was actually kind of fun," Maria laughed. "We felt like we were moving into a new house, putting everything back into our beautiful new kitchen and refinished dining room."

They returned the empty unit Monday morning, and we picked it up.

Total cost: About $2,400 for 8 weeks of storage, including delivery, pickup, storage, and return delivery. No truck rentals, no gas, no physical strain from multiple moves.


Why Walteria Residents Choose Portable Storage

The Martinez family's experience is typical for Walteria homeowners using portable storage during renovations.

Walteria Neighborhood Characteristics

Walteria sits in southwest Torrance near Pacific Coast Highway and Torrance Beach. It's a quieter, more residential area than some parts of Torrance. Homes here are often:

  • Single-family residences with driveways
  • Built in the 1950s-1970s (prime renovation age)
  • Close to the beach (families who plan to stay long-term)
  • Mid-sized lots with street parking options

This makes Walteria ideal for portable storage:

  • Driveways accommodate 16' or 20' containers easily
  • Homeowners typically doing significant renovations (kitchens, baths, room additions)
  • Families who need flexible timelines
  • Easy access from PCH for our delivery trucks

What Our Customers Think

Video transcript

With any storage facility, my concerns are, number one, safety and theft of my items, how well are they going to be cared for? Are they going to be damaged, shaken around, especially in a pod? Then also ease of access, it's not like a roll-up-door storage locker where you can just go and get in; it has to be brought out. And I thought, boy, all that moving around, it's going to be a wreck. And cost, and so on. And then, working with the people there, how easy is that going to be?

I was very pleased with the service. When I first packed up, I didn't order enough pods, and here I am in the middle of moving, on a deadline, I have to fly out across the Pacific, so it's not like I can wait around. I needed more pods. They delivered me more pods on the spot, and I packed them up.

Over the years, and I've been here quite a few years, because I moved from the mainland to Hawaii, and now from Hawaii to Panama, I've had these storage lockers for years. I went from four to three, three to two, and now two to one. Every time I've had to come here or contact them, they're Johnny-on-the-spot, so accommodating. When I call in to make my payments, I almost feel like I work here now, because I know everybody so well. They're very understanding and easy to work with.

I've had other storage lockers, this is the best experience I've ever had. That's why I've been here so long. My kids are already saying they're going to use Box-n-Go when they move. You don't think your stuff's going to be in storage that long, but it is. And with all the ins and outs of the pods, nothing has ever been damaged. Not one thing. So I'm very pleased. Very pleased.

If you're going to be out of state, your stuff's secure, it's taken care of, it's not deteriorating. We had a leather saddle in there for years, I said to my husband, it's going to be full of mold, even your shoes get moldy when they're locked up. We took it out, it's perfect. It's temperature controlled, all of it. I couldn't be happier. I would definitely recommend them. I have recommended them.

This was the first time I was renting storage. My first concerns were: where was the storage place, and was it safe? I'm putting all my valuables and keepsakes, things that are really important to me, so it was really important that they felt safe, that the company was a real company I trusted. Also the cost, how much was it going to be? I didn't want to have to worry, while I'm out traveling, about being hit with all these fees on top of it, or weird things. So those were the main concerns.

What surprised me the most, there are so many things I could say, but I guess just how easy it was. I had no idea. The whole process was very easy. When I moved everything, the box came to me, I put everything in there, it was just so simple and affordable. And then even getting into my storage: because I decided to keep traveling a little bit longer, it was super easy just to drop in, take stuff out or put some in. It was just so easy. And I felt very safe. So it totally blew my expectations of what I thought storage would be, because it's just been very pleasant.

I recommend them all the time to many people, mostly because I feel safe, I feel like my storage is in a safe place, and just because of how easy and affordable this whole process has been.

When I first called Box-n-Go, I spoke to Frank, and he was very thorough with the information I needed, sizes, prices and rates, the contract based on the number of months, any specials. I thought, wow, he's giving me everything; I'm not really having to ask. I liked that a lot, the information was provided up front. I told him I'd take everything, look through it, do some research, and come back to him. But I pretty much knew everything he'd said made sense, and I felt really comfortable with him. He was oriented toward good customer service, just on point. I had nothing in my mind that said I wanted to look any further.

I did some searches and Box-n-Go came up. I'd talked to some other people before, but when I got to Box-n-Go I was just like, "You know what? I've made my decision." I had no hesitation about going with anyone else.

The container came to my home, and it was exactly the size I thought it was, no surprises, no "this is too big, this is too small." I put everything in it, it got picked up, everything was on schedule, exactly as Frank had said. I was definitely pleased.

I really liked working with Frank. He was my point person the whole time I had my storage. I'd call him, he remembered me, and he made every attempt to be on point with everything. When I'd come to the storage facility to check on things, take some out, put some in, he was always there, friendly. And there were the two Stans; customer service was great, the warehouse guys were great. Everyone was friendly, no one was rude, no one was lost or disappeared. They helped me move stuff in, they helped me move stuff out. It was great, even though I was taking my stuff out of storage.

I would recommend them to everyone. So kudos to Frank, the two Stans, the warehouse guys, and Box-n-Go in general.

"I'm renovating my garage into an office. Having the storage container in my driveway for a week meant I could load tools and belongings as I cleared out the space. Way better than making multiple trips to a storage facility." - David K., Walteria
