Basement Renovation Storage: Bins for Clearing a Basement in New Jersey

Clear a basement before a renovation or waterproofing job. Rent storage bins by the week, with free delivery and pick-up in Northern New Jersey.

Clear the basement before the work starts

Finishing, waterproofing or remodeling a basement means moving everything out of the way first: holiday decorations, tools, sports gear, files and boxes that have been down there for years.

Rented storage bins let you clear the space quickly. Rigid bins stack neatly in a garage or spare room, close with lids, and are labeled with a QR code so you can see what is inside without opening ten boxes. When the work is finished, we collect the empties.

A simple plan

1. Sort first. Keep, donate, sell, recycle. Everything you do not keep is one less bin to pay for.
2. Pack by category. Holiday items, tools, sports gear, paperwork and keepsakes each get their own bins.
3. Keep damp-sensitive items safe. Store photos, fabric and paper in lidded bins and keep them off the floor.
4. Keep valuables with you. Documents and irreplaceables should not stay on a job site.
5. Label everything. Scan the QR label and list what is in each bin.

How many bins?

A basement full of belongings often takes 15 to 40 bins. XL bins (up to 500 lbs per bin) suit tools and bulky items; Standard bins suit books and paperwork. Choose 1 to 8 weeks to match the schedule, and see our renovation bin prices.
