Clothes storage in Ho Chi Minh City
In this city a winter coat is worn on one trip a year and spends the rest of it absorbing humidity in the back of a wardrobe. The same goes for the wedding dress, the ski gear, the suits from a previous job. Clothes store well here if they go in clean, dry and in the right climate.

Key facts
- A 60 × 40 × 40 cm box holds about 15 to 20 folded jumpers, or 30 to 40 T-shirts, or two winter coats, or a full set of ski clothing.
- Small plan, 12 boxes, 1,158,000 VND a month standard or 1,452,000 VND air-conditioned. Choose air-conditioned for wool, silk, leather, down and anything with sentimental value.
- Collection 1,093,000 VND one way. Packing is a separate choice, from 1,208,000 VND. Single boxes back from the next day.
- Wash or dry-clean everything before storage. Sweat and skin oil are what moths and mould feed on.

Four rules that prevent every clothes-in-storage complaint
- Clean and completely dry. A slightly damp garment in a sealed box is mould in a month.
- No plastic film, no vacuum bags for wool, down or silk. They trap moisture and crush loft. Breathable is the word.
- Do not overfill. A box with air inside lets fabric breathe; a compressed box creases permanently.
- Right climate. The city runs at 75 to 80 percent humidity; mould starts above about 65. Natural fibres go air-conditioned.
Wardrobe boxes
For suits, coats and dresses that should not be folded, ask for a wardrobe box at booking: a tall box with a rail. Each counts as about two standard boxes. The crew brings them and hangs the garments with you.
What a Small plan holds
12 boxes is two people's winter wardrobes, their ski gear, the suits, the boots, and the two suitcases they pack them in. Most clothes plans are Small, air-conditioned, at 1,452,000 VND a month, which is about 121,000 VND per box. A 12 month term takes 15 percent off; winter comes once a year.
Getting a coat back for a trip
The catalogue shows each box with your note: "black coat, grey scarf, gloves". Request the box for a date from tomorrow; one delivery fee per box. Send it back with "send more items" when you are home. Pack for the trip from the box, not from the wardrobe.
Retailers and brands
Off-season stock, samples, uniforms between seasons: business accounts add SKU notes, sections per collection, par levels with a weekly summary email, team roles and VAT invoices. We have experience with corporate customers holding uniform and sample stock.

Frequently asked
Can I store clothes in suitcases?
Yes. A packed large suitcase counts as about two boxes. Leave it unlocked or give us the code if you may want single items out; otherwise the crew stores it as one sealed item.
Will moths get in?
The facility has scheduled pest control. On your side, clean garments and a cedar block in each wool box; moths are attracted to skin oils, not to wool itself.
Do you dry-clean?
No. Clean before storage; the crew photographs garments as received.
Is a wedding dress safe?
Yes in air-conditioned storage, boxed with acid-free tissue, no plastic. Declare it when booking if its value is high; protection is up to 30,000,000 VND per contract.
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.
