A new-build lot out in Horizon City that hasn’t cleared its final inspection yet, or an El Paso County closing that slips two weeks past your move-out date — either one can leave you needing somewhere secure to hold a household a moving truck already picked up. Lightyear solves that with our own climate-controlled space in El Paso County instead of pointing you toward a self-storage franchise across town.
What you get with our storage service
- Keep the unit for as long as the gap between your two addresses actually lasts, there’s no set contract term forcing an end date
- Every item gets photographed and tagged with a number the moment it comes off the truck, before it’s set down in the unit
- Our own crew is the only one with access, there’s no gate code shared with other renters and no stray keys floating around the property
- As soon as your new address passes final inspection, we put the delivery run on the calendar
- Set it up as its own job, or attach it to a move you’ve already got planned in or out of El Paso
One crew, start to finish, nobody else in the chain
Because Lightyear never hands your belongings off to a separate storage operator, the same small crew that picked your things up is typically the crew that delivers them later. That continuity counts for something when a family’s items are sitting with us for a couple of months because a Horizon City closing slipped or a Fort Bliss PCS report date got pushed.
From pickup to your new front door
- Pickup day Nothing leaves your old address without a photo taken and a tag number written down first.
- While it waits Everything sits up on pallets rather than directly on the concrete, inside a unit designed to handle a Borderplex summer and an occasional hard freeze equally well.
- Getting the green light Final inspection passed, keys handed over, PCS orders confirmed, once that’s done, we schedule the return trip.
- Delivery at the new place The crew works it room by room off your directions, reassembling anything that had been taken apart before they leave.
