Avcılar is a district stretching between Lake Küçükçekmece on one side and the Marmara coast on the other, linking the western European Side to the city center via the E-5 and TEM highways. Its university campus gives it a large student population, and the renewal of its aging housing stock keeps urban renewal (earthquake-driven redevelopment) activity high.
These two dynamics make household storage a go-to solution in Avcılar. For families leaving buildings slated for demolition, students vacating their homes between semesters and homeowners doing renovations, Troy Depo picks up belongings at the door, packs them and stores them in our partner warehouses.

Who Needs Household Storage in Avcılar?
People affected by urban renewal
Many buildings in Avcılar are being rebuilt. Once a demolition decision is made, the home has to be vacated quickly, while the date construction will finish is often uncertain. For this process, we recommend our urban renewal storage service.
Students
Students leaving their homes over the summer break or during an exchange semester choose storage over paying rent for a few boxes and some small furniture. We cover this topic in our article on storage for students.
Families renovating their homes
During kitchen, bathroom or flooring renovations, moving belongings from room to room both drags out the work and leaves everything exposed to dust.
Avcılar Neighborhoods and Housing
Housing varies quite a bit across Avcılar neighborhoods such as Ambarlı, Denizköşkler, Cihangir, Gümüşpala and Firuzköy. Near the coast, older apartment buildings stand side by side with renewed ones; around the university, student flats and small apartments are common; and the Firuzköy side has newer gated complexes. This diversity means storage needs come in different sizes, too: a student's few boxes and the entire household of a family affected by urban renewal may be moved in the same week.
Once your urban renewal move-out date is set, we recommend scheduling the on-site survey a month in advance. When moves are left to the last week, it's harder to find a suitable date and packing gets rushed.
A Typical Storage Process in Avcılar
The following example was prepared to illustrate a situation we often encounter in Avcılar.
Imagine a family in Avcılar whose building is part of an urban renewal project. Once the move-out date is set, we carry out a survey; the contents of the 3+1 apartment are divided so that some go to a temporary rental home and the rest to storage. On moving day, the furniture is disassembled, fragile items are wrapped and the boxes are numbered. As long as construction continues, the contract is extended month by month; when the new apartment is handed over, the belongings go straight from storage to the new home and the furniture is reassembled.

Planning a Move in Avcılar
Since Avcılar's main roads can get congested at rush hour, we schedule moving times around traffic. With urban renewal, the real issue is timing: carrying out the survey early, once the move-out date is set, prevents a last-minute rush. Because humidity can be higher in homes near the lake and the sea, we take this into account when packing wooden furniture and textiles.
Avcılar Household Storage Step by Step
- Initial consultation: When you fill out the form or call us, we discuss the type of items, the approximate amount and how long they'll be stored.
- Free on-site survey: Our team visits your address, measures the volume, assesses the building entrance and moving conditions, and then gives you a written quote.
- Moving day: Items are disassembled and packed, a contents list is kept with numbered boxes, and everything is transported to the warehouse.
- Storage and delivery: Your belongings are stored neatly in the warehouse; whenever you're ready, the same team brings them to your new address.
Which Type of Storage Is Right for You?
We offer two options: private room storage, which you can enter during business hours if you need frequent access, or the more economical container storage if your belongings will stay packed away for the whole period. Container access is limited and available by appointment. If you can't decide, we'll look at it together during the survey.
How Are Your Belongings Protected in Storage?
The warehouses we work with are facilities that meet standards for security, climate control and pest control. For belongings stored long term, the main risk is moisture-related mold and odor, so we recommend well-ventilated spaces for wooden furniture and textiles. If you'd like extra peace of mind, insured household storage is available.
Personal and Business Storage
We offer household goods storage for individual customers and office storage covering furniture, electronics and archives for companies. In both cases, items are picked up at the door, packed and placed in storage in numbered boxes.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long can I rent storage for during urban renewal?
Storage is rented by the month, and the minimum term is 1 month. If construction runs long, you can extend your contract; there's no need to commit to a long term up front.
Do you store small amounts of belongings, like a student's things?
Yes. We have small spaces for low-volume items such as a few boxes, a bed and a small wardrobe. The price is based on the volume your belongings take up.
Do you handle moves from older buildings in Avcılar?
Yes. For older buildings without elevators or with narrow staircases, we plan the move based on the number of floors and the weight of the items, and we confirm the details during the survey.
Are my belongings insured?
If you'd like extra protection for your belongings against fire, flooding and theft, we can add the insured storage option to your quote.
What items can't be stored?
Flammable and explosive substances, perishable food, live plants and pets are not accepted. Furniture, large appliances, electronics, textiles and boxes can be stored without any issues.
Is there a fee for the on-site survey?
No. We come to your address, see your belongings and give you a written quote; the survey is free of charge.
