Moving address, and the things in the room
The registration paperwork is a job for your accountant and the registration office. This page is about the other half, the half no procedural guide mentions: the old premises must be returned on one date, the new one is ready on another, and between those two dates everything you own has to be somewhere.

The short answer
- The two dates rarely meet. Storage is the middle, rented by the month rather than the year.
- Book collection and return together: the crew collects at the old address, keeps it, and delivers to the new one on the date you choose.
- Collection and return from 5,100,000 VND, plus storage from 1,250,000 VND a month.
- Every item photographed and coded, signed for at both ends, catalogue exportable to CSV.
- Registration, tax and invoicing questions belong with your accountant; we do not advise on those.
Two timelines, running side by side
| Stage | Paperwork side | Equipment side |
|---|---|---|
| Before committing | Check the new address with your accountant and the registration office | Measure the new space, count what you have, decide what is not coming |
| Once the date is fixed | File the change as the registration office directs | Book collection at least 2 days ahead; note the lane, the lift and the floor |
| The gap | Wait on the result, update the address on invoices and contracts | Everything sits in a catalogue; single items come out if you need them |
| Into the new space | Update the address with banks, partners and suppliers | Book the delivery, split into stages if the new place finishes area by area |
We do not handle administrative filings and do not advise on them. If you are looking for the procedure itself, ask your accountant or the business registration office where you file; the requirements and forms change over time and by locality.
Why not drive it straight from one place to the other
If the dates meet, drive it straight across and a removals company is all you need. In practice they rarely meet: the new place is still being finished, the old landlord wants it back the day the lease ends, the paperwork is not through. A removals company that agrees to hold your things usually leaves them on the truck or on a warehouse floor, uncatalogued, unconditioned, with every extra day a negotiation. We are a storage company with a moving crew, so the middle is the product.
Paper records during a move
This is the part most easily lost in a move and the part most often asked for afterwards. Box it by department, code it, mark the years, and put it in air-conditioning at 23 to 25°C. Accounting records carry statutory retention periods, so a move is not the moment to throw them out. If you need one file back mid-way, request that box on its own.
Moving to another province
We serve Ho Chi Minh City. If the new address is in another province, we can still collect and hold everything here while you arrange it, and you book a long-distance carrier for the leg itself; the photographed catalogue makes that handover clean. Central districts carry no trip fee; other districts add 150,000 VND per trip.

| Large | 11,300,000 VND | 16,600,000 VND |

Frequently asked

No. We handle the equipment: collection, catalogued storage and delivery to the new address. The filing belongs with your accountant or the registration office.
How long can things stay between two premises?
Billed month to month for as long as you need. Most address moves take one to three months.
What if I need one box of records while it is stored?
Request that box in your account at 100,000 VND, delivered the next day at the earliest.
Do you invoice a company?
Yes, in the company name with tax code and address, one invoice a month, paid by bank transfer.
Store it, get it back when you need it
We come to you, pack, photograph every item and keep it on a secure shelf, standard or air-conditioned. One message brings any of it back.
