About This Service
Secure Storage in Markham
Storage is a normal part of moving in Markham, and the gap between one closing date and another comes up constantly given how active the city's new-build market is. You sell your Berczy Village detached with a 30-day close but the builder finishing your new Cornell townhome pushes possession back six weeks. Or your Wismer Commons buyer needs an early close and you cannot take possession of your next home until the first of the following month. Fast Track Move's storage-in-transit service exists specifically to bridge these gaps. We pick up from your Markham address with the same trained crew that would handle a full move, wrap everything properly for storage rather than just for a local trip, inventory every item digitally with photographs at intake, and store it all in our climate-controlled facility. When your new home or condo is ready, we deliver and set up just as we would on a regular move day. Storage-in-transit with us is different from renting a self-storage unit in a few important ways. You never have to touch your belongings during the storage period. You do not need to rent a truck to fill a storage unit and then rent another one to empty it when you are ready. We handle the pickup and the delivery as part of one managed process, and your items are professionally wrapped for the storage period rather than stacked in a rented locker in whatever condition you hauled them there in. We also see steady demand from Markham clients who are renovating, particularly in the older Markham Village and Unionville housing stock where kitchen and basement renovations are common. Having your belongings out of the way for two to eight weeks can genuinely speed up the renovation. We pick up items from the rooms being renovated, store them, and deliver them back once the work is done. Pickup and delivery at your Markham address are billed at our standard hourly crew rates, with a three-hour minimum, plus our $249 truck fee for Markham's 25-to-50-kilometre distance band from the North York depot. Monthly storage fees are billed separately based on volume.
Our Edge
Why Choose Fast Track Move for Secure Storage in Markham
The difference between professional storage-in-transit and self-storage comes down to handling and accountability. When we take your Markham belongings into storage, they are wrapped in moving blankets and protected with the same materials we use on any move. Everything is inventoried at intake with item-level photographs and matched against that inventory at delivery. If something arrives in worse condition than it left, we know it and we address it. Our storage facility is climate-controlled, which matters more than people realize. GTA winters regularly hit minus 20 Celsius, and a storage unit without climate control exposes furniture, electronics, and anything in cardboard to those extremes. Leather furniture cracks in unheated storage over winter. Electronics degrade. Cardboard boxes collapse and saturate in humid spring conditions. Our facility maintains consistent temperature and humidity year-round. Coverage is included with your storage plan. Basic declared-value coverage comes standard, and you can upgrade to full replacement value for high-value items such as antiques, art, and electronics, which come up more often than average in Markham's larger Cathedraltown and Berczy Village homes. Flexible month-to-month billing means you never pay for more time than you need. There are no cancellation penalties and no pressure to commit to a minimum term. We are upfront that Markham is about a 32-kilometre drive from our depot, and that distance is reflected honestly in your quote rather than hidden until the invoice.
What We Do
How Our Secure Storage Works in Markham
Our Markham storage service works in three phases. Pickup is handled by a trained crew who wrap your furniture in moving blankets, pack any loose items into boxes if needed, and load everything into our truck. At our facility, every item is photographed and logged into our inventory system before being placed in your designated storage space. Delivery happens when you are ready, on a scheduled date, with the same care as any other move. Storage units are allocated by volume rather than a fixed unit size, so you only pay for the space your belongings actually occupy. We do a visual estimate at pickup or during a pre-storage walkthrough and give you a clear monthly cost before anything is stored. Access to stored items during the storage period is available by scheduled appointment. We do not operate a walk-in self-storage facility, but if you need specific items retrieved, we can arrange an access appointment or a partial delivery. Climate-controlled storage protects furniture, artwork, electronics, instruments, and sensitive documents from temperature and humidity extremes. We store items for Markham clients ranging from a single room's worth of furniture during a renovation to a full household during an international relocation tied to a Highway 7 employer, or a possession-date gap between a Berczy Village sale and a new Wismer Commons build.
Local Expertise
We Know Markham Inside Out
Markham has predictable storage demand patterns tied to how active its new-build and resale markets are. The end of each month is consistently the busiest period for storage pickups, as residents close on their sale and wait out a gap before possession of their new home. We reserve capacity specifically for these peak periods. Downsizing from larger detached homes into condos along the Highway 7 corridor is common among longer-established Markham families whose children have grown up and moved out. The contents of a five-bedroom Cathedraltown or Berczy Village home often do not fit into a two-bedroom condo all at once, and a portion of the furniture ends up in storage while the new home is organized. We handle this transition regularly. New-build possession gaps are especially common in Cornell and Wismer Commons, where buyers sometimes sell their previous home before their new build is finished. We store the contents of the sold home until the keys to the new one are ready. Renovation storage is common in Markham Village and Unionville's older housing stock, where kitchen, basement, and heritage-sensitive renovations are frequent. Our storage service lets contractors work without navigating around furniture and belongings during a major renovation. Highway 7 corporate relocations also generate steady storage demand when an incoming employee's household goods arrive ahead of their new home being ready.
