How it works

Storage that comes to you

From your couch to ours. Here's exactly how Jou Garage works, from first pickup to getting things back — all without leaving home.

  1. 1

    Tell us what to store

    Pick your boxes and bulky items. Our size guide shows exactly what fits and what it'll cost — before you commit to anything.

  2. 2

    We collect from your door

    On your area's service day — and your very first pickup is free. You pack your boxes, we seal each one with a numbered seal.

  3. 3

    We store it safely

    Your things are kept secure and sound. Bulky items are photographed on the way in; boxes stay sealed. It's all in Your Garage.

  4. 4

    Back whenever you ask

    Request any item on WhatsApp and we'll bring it on your next service day — or choose on-demand if you need it right away.

Zone days

We come to your corner of the city

Each area has a regular service day. Grouping trips this way keeps our prices low — and means you always know when we're coming.

Which day do we come to you?

Pop in your address or suburb and we'll tell you your service day.

Peace of mind

Your things, looked after

Sealed boxes, numbered seals

You pack and seal each box yourself with a numbered seal. If the seal is intact when it comes back, you know nobody's been inside. We're still responsible for keeping your boxes safe, dry and sound — there's insurance and a liability cap on every box.

Condition photos for bulky items

Beds, couches, fridges and the like are photographed when we collect them and again when we deliver — and you sign off on the condition. No surprises, no arguments, just a clear record for both of us.

Service tiers

Go at your own pace

Pick the pace that suits each request. You can mix tiers across different items.
