Magna Thomson - International Movers - Products

There are many occasions when we are requested to store customers’ household effects, cars, caravans, boats or trailers – from a few days to even a few years. Our purpose-designed storage facilities are immaculate and boast state-of-the-art electronic security and fire control systems. In addition, there is a professional guard service at many depots, with armed response in attendance, around the clock At Magna-Thomson we offer palletized storage both locally as well as overseas. Palletization means that your goods are securely stored in conditions, which are as dust free as possible, and it is very cost-effective to store in South Africa. Please call us for rates. Overseas storage is more expensive than South African storage, but we can quote you on the following options: ● In the Container: Goods can only be stored for two weeks ● In Pallet Boxes: Goods can be stored for an unlimited period As previously stated, storage goods are generally loaded into pallet boxes: 5 pallet boxes = 1 x 20’ container or 30 cubic meters. Find the contact details of your nearest branch and chat to a consultant about your storage requirements. We are ready to assist you in answering any questions you may have.
