The Big Furniture Fair always delivers - incredible deals, hundreds of exhibitors, and the kind of discounts that make it hard to walk away empty-handed. But what happens when your new sofa, mattress, or dining set is ready for delivery… and your home isn't quite ready yet? That's exactly where Lock+Store self storage steps in.

Your Home Isn't Always Ready When Your Furniture Is

Whether you're waiting for your HDB key collection, in the middle of a renovation, or simply upgrading your existing furniture before the old pieces are gone, timing mismatches are incredibly common after a big furniture haul. Rather than delaying your purchase or cramming everything into a crowded home, a self-storage unit gives you a clean, stress-free buffer zone.

How Lock+Store Helps Fair Shoppers

  • Store new furniture before your home is ready. Key collection delays and renovation timelines are unpredictable; your delivery schedule doesn't have to be

  • Stage a smooth renovation - move out existing furniture into storage while contractors work, then bring in your new pieces once the space is done

  • Protect bulky or high-value items - mattresses, sofas, carpets, and solid wood furniture are best kept in a climate-controlled unit away from Singapore's humidity

  • Declutter before the new arrives - sell, donate, or gradually dispose of old furniture while your new pieces are safely stored

  • Flexible month-to-month leases - no long contracts; rent only for as long as you need

Perfect for These Situations

  • BTO or resale flat owners: Bought furniture ahead of your key collection date? Store it with us and schedule delivery to your new flat on your terms.

  • Renovation in progress: Don't let contractors work around your furniture. Store everything safely and bring it in once the dust has settled - literally.

  • Upgrading room by room: Renovating your master bedroom first? Store the new furniture until each room is ready so your home stays liveable throughout.

  • Downsizing or rightsizing: Bought new pieces but not ready to let go of old ones? Give yourself time to decide without cluttering your home.
