Cincy Posted September 27, 2015 Report Share Posted September 27, 2015 What kind of storage units/facilities are there around the Ajijic/Chapala area that could store a smallish amount of furniture, tools and general household belongings. Looking at moving to Mexico and shipping some of our stuff down from Ohio early next year. Any info on monthly storage costs would be particularly useful. Any one have any experience/insights?

El Cartero Posted September 27, 2015 Report Share Posted September 27, 2015 Also contact Strom-White moving. They havetwo or three sizes. Google or email contact. I think I paid 200 pesos a month for an 8 foot high by at least that depth. Maybe 6' wide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuzieQ1954 Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 My daughter and I plan to bring things down with us during our "investigation" visits and store them in a storage unit. It will be things like linens. Can we find storage containers locally at reasonable prices? We'll be bringing them down in our suitcases, so will need plastic bins or something. We may later start leaving some clothing. What do you think? Our move is a year or two away, we just thought we would bring things along, as we plan to make 3 - 4 visits before moving.

lakeside101 Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 I just recently compare Strom vs Storage place by wal-mart Strom priced in dollars and much higher costs like the access of the storage place near wal mart got the 10 by 10 by 8ft tall -- 750p/month Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asisis Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 La Floresta Storage has 10x10 units. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrm30655 Posted September 29, 2015 Report Share Posted September 29, 2015 If you are going to store fabrics for long periods, you need to seal them in plastic bags and make sure that they have low moisture when you store them. For 8 months of the year it is dry here but the other 4 months are damp and things will mold. Those bags you can vacuum out and seal will really make a difference with clothes, however they tend to leak over time and re-expand.

gringoinjalisco Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 If you will be storing your stuff for long periods, I recommend a new self storage facility in Guadalajara https://bodemax.mx The facility has a roof over the units and is more secure than the self storage place in Ajijic.

RVGRINGO Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 Interesting that it might have a new name, but is the same place that has been in the same location since I last used it in 2001; La Floresta Storage. It is not in Ajijic, or the fraccionamiento of La Floresta, but nearby in San Antonio Tlayacapan: Carretera Chapala-Ajijic #40 (Junction with Libramiento) San Antonio Tlayacapan, Chapala, Jalisco. México C.P. 45915 So, when I saw a reference to an Ajijic location, I was puzzled and curious. But, I was correct. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan Videgaray Posted February 19, 2022 Report Share Posted February 19, 2022 I would definitely suggest Bodemax Minibodegas (https://www.bodemax.mx). They are probably the best self storage facilities in Guadalajara, highly recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmh Posted February 19, 2022 Report Share Posted February 19, 2022 When I moved from San Francisco I shipped all my belongings to I believe it was Laredo where Strom had a wharehouse and I called them and asked them to ship to me after I arrived. So you can warehouse in the US without any problem if you are planning to get your stuff later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good info to have anyway on a daydreaming day for those thinking of spring cleaning and not wanting to sell or give some stuff away. So wondering if a guys stuff will be on the show Storage Wars when their abandoned unit is sold or be on the Show Hoarder's A person can't win these days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
