The holiday season has officially begun – lights are going up, calendars are filling fast, and it’s time to welcome joy, guests, and celebration. But if you’re stepping over summer boxes or still haven’t unpacked from your last move, it may feel more like chaos than Christmas.
If your home feels tight, you’re not alone. Families across Arlington Heights, Buffalo Grove, and Wheeling are all asking the same thing: “Where do I put all this stuff before the guests arrive?” Whether you live in a cozy apartment or a spacious house, clutter can sneak in and steal the joy of the season.
Why Clutter Kills Holiday Cheer
The holidays are supposed to be peaceful, but physical mess creates mental stress. Piles of unused things make it harder to decorate, harder to relax, and definitely harder to host.
Can’t fit your Christmas tree? The guest room packed with Amazon boxes? Or the garage still holding patio furniture? That’s a sign: it’s time to store smart.
At ACM Movers, we offer secure, climate-controlled storage units right here in Arlington Heights – perfect for:
- Seasonal furniture
- Boxes of kids’ summer clothes
- Business inventory overflow
- Extra décor or tools
Need help packing? We’ll wrap and protect your items using moving blankets, stretch film, and labeled boxes. Our team will pick it all up, store it safely, and deliver it back when you’re ready. No stress, no driving.
Who’s Already Doing It?
We recently helped a client in Buffalo Grove who wanted to surprise his wife with a full living room remodel before Christmas. Our movers picked up and stored all their extra furniture, freeing up space for a new tree and cozy guest setup.
A family in Palatine used our short-term storage to clear out their garage for hosting an outdoor firepit party.

FAQ – Storage in December with ACM Movers
How do I use your storage services in Chicago?
It’s simple! Just contact ACM Movers to reserve your storage space. We’ll help you choose the right unit size based on your needs. You can either drop off your items at our Arlington Heights facility or let our team pick them up directly from your home during a move. Once stored, you’ll have scheduled access to your belongings and peace of mind with 24/7 surveillance and climate control.
What items can I store during the holiday season?
You can store:
Holiday decorations & trees
Winter sports gear (ski/snowboards)
Extra furniture
Boxes of clothing
Seasonal kitchen appliances
Kids’ toys you want to “hide” before Christmas 😉
Just avoid flammable or perishable items — we’ll guide you on what’s allowed!
Will my furniture or clothes get damaged in storage?
No — our units are climate-controlled to prevent moisture and temperature damage. We also offer professional packing: we wrap furniture in moving blankets and shrink wrap, and place clothing in breathable containers. Whether it’s a designer couch or your kid’s favorite winter jacket, everything stays safe.
Can I access my things whenever I want?
Access is available during designated hours — just let us know in advance so we can prepare your unit. Unlike public storage, we manage security personally, so your items are safer and handled with care.
Is this better than using my garage or basement for storage?
Yes! Garages and basements in Chicago get cold and damp in winter, which can lead to mold, rust, and odor. Our clean, secure, heated facility keeps your belongings fresh and protected — especially important for furniture, electronics, and clothing.
How much does holiday storage cost?
Prices start from $89/month, depending on the size of your unit and whether you need pick-up/drop-off services. We offer special discounts in December — just ask for our Holiday Storage Deal!
