Legacy Moving offers long-term storage for Winnipeg homeowners and businesses who need a safe place to keep their belongings for weeks, months, or longer. We're a full-service mover and storage provider, which means we do the heavy work. You don't rent a truck, you don't haul boxes across town, and you don't squeeze a sofa through a self-storage doorway.
Common long-term storage reasons:
- Closing-date gaps: selling one home, waiting on possession of another
- Major renovations: character homes in Wolseley or Fort Garry need everything cleared for months
- Long-distance move staging: headed to Calgary, Edmonton, or Toronto and need your things held while the new place gets ready
- Snowbirds: storing before heading south, retrieving when you return
- Business downsizing or transition: office equipment or inventory between locations
Whatever the reason, we handle pickup, transport, and storage as one coordinated service. Call us at (204) 296-2223 for a free quote, no deposits, no hidden fees, and no pressure.
Winnipeg weather is hard on belongings. Winters hit -35°C and summers bring humidity into the mid-30s. Our storage facility is climate-controlled year-round, so your items stay at a stable temperature and humidity level regardless of what's happening outside.
That matters more than most people realize. Wood furniture warps and cracks when it goes through repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Electronics condense moisture inside their cases when cold items meet warm air. Leather dries out. Artwork and documents yellow. A climate-controlled environment protects against all of it.
Our facility also includes:
- Fire protection systems
- Surveillance and monitored access
- Clean, dry, pest-controlled conditions
- Organized storage — items are properly placed, not stacked haphazardly
We treat your belongings the same way we'd treat our own. That's the standard our three founders built the company on, with a combined 50+ years of moving experience between them.
Long-term storage works for almost anything you'd keep in your home or office. The climate-controlled environment is especially important for items sensitive to Winnipeg's temperature swings.
Items we commonly store:
- Wood and upholstered furniture — sofas, dining sets, bedroom furniture, antiques
- Electronics and appliances — TVs, computers, stereo equipment, smaller kitchen appliances
- Seasonal items — patio furniture, camping gear, kayaks, holiday decorations, yard tools
- Artwork, photos, and documents — anything that would yellow, warp, or fade in an unheated space
- Musical instruments — pianos, guitars, and other wood-bodied instruments that don't tolerate humidity swings
- Business files and inventory — for companies downsizing offices or archiving records
Items we can't accept include hazardous materials, perishable food, flammable liquids, firearms, and plants. If you're unsure about something specific, just ask when you call.
Here's where full-service storage beats renting a self-storage locker: you don't touch anything twice.
Self-storage workflow: pack → rent truck → load → drive → unload into locker → repeat in reverse when ready. Every handoff is a chance for something to get scratched, dented, or forgotten.
Our workflow:
- Crew comes to your home and loads your belongings into our truck
- Transport to our facility: climate-controlled, locked, insured
- Stored for as long as you need (weeks, months, years)
- Delivered straight to your new address when you're ready
One team, one chain of custody, one set of hands looking after your things.
This setup works especially well for long-distance moves. If you're heading from Winnipeg to Calgary, Edmonton, or Toronto and there's a gap between when you need to leave and when your new place is ready, we can store your belongings and then ship them out when the timing lines up. Ask about combined moving and storage when you request your free estimate.
How items are prepared makes a real difference in how they come out of storage months later. Our team can handle full or partial packing, or you can pack yourself and we'll take it from there. Either way, we'll walk you through what we recommend for long-term storage.
A few things we always suggest:
- Furniture gets wrapped in moving pads or shrink wrap to protect finishes
- Mattresses go in breathable covers — plastic traps moisture
- Electronics are boxed with their original packaging when possible
- Fragile items get bubble wrap and labeled boxes
- Dressers and cabinets should be emptied; leaving clothes inside adds weight and invites musty smells
If full-service packing makes more sense for your situation, we can do that too. Many customers who are mid-move or dealing with a renovation don't have time to pack carefully, and that's exactly the kind of job our crew handles every day. Call (204) 296-2223 and we'll put together a plan that fits your timeline and budget.
We're a Winnipeg company built by three owners with a combined 50+ years in the moving industry. Christopher Pereira has been a mover since 2001, Nicholas Wight since 2004, and Sean Hagues brings 23 years of operational experience. When you hire us, you're hiring people who've seen every kind of move and every kind of storage situation this city throws at them.
What that means for you:
- Transparent pricing — we don't charge deposits, and there are no surprise fees at the end
- Free on-site quotes — we come to you, look at what needs to be stored, and give you a real number
- Flexible storage terms — weeks, months, or longer, matched to your situation
- BBB accredited with an A rating — zero complaints on file since our February 2025 accreditation
- 5 stars across 168+ Google reviews — from Winnipeg customers who used us for moves and storage
We work with customers across River Heights, St. James, Transcona, St. Vital, Fort Garry, and the rest of the city. Whether you're staging a home for the spring market or waiting on a new build, we'll help you keep your belongings safe in between. Call (204) 296-2223 or request a free quote online.

Frequently Asked Questions
With self-storage, you rent a locker and handle all the loading, driving, and unloading yourself. With Legacy's full-service storage, we pick up your belongings, transport them, and store them in our climate-controlled facility. One team, one chain of custody, and no heavy lifting for you.
We offer flexible terms to match your situation, whether that's a few weeks between possession dates or several months during a renovation. Call us at (204) 296-2223 and we'll put together a plan that fits — we welcome short-notice bookings too and will always do our best to make it work.
Yes, though access isn't quite the same as a self-storage locker. Because we organize items inside a working warehouse, we ask that you schedule access in advance. Give us a call and we'll arrange a time that works for you and our team.
Wrap wood furniture in moving pads, cover mattresses with breathable covers (never plastic), empty dressers, and box fragile items with bubble wrap. Our crew can handle all of this for you as part of a full-service packing job — just ask when you request your free quote.
Yes. If you're moving from Winnipeg to Calgary, Edmonton, Toronto, or anywhere else and need a gap between move-out and move-in, we can store your belongings and ship them when your new place is ready. Ask about combined moving and storage when you call.
We can't accept hazardous materials, flammable liquids, perishable food, plants, firearms, or anything requiring special permits. Most household and office items are fine. If you're unsure about something specific, call us at (204) 296-2223 and we'll let you know before your move day.
