Frequently Asked Questions
After your $500 deposit to reserve your spot, you’ll receive your first invoice once your initial moving services are completed and/or your items have arrived at our warehouse. Your second invoice will be issued after your return move has been completed.
Yes, you can bundle items together as long as everything is booked under the same name and all items are picked up from and delivered to the same location. Please note that billing is processed as a single payment — we’re not able to split payments between multiple people. Cedar Bucket is also not responsible for separating, identifying, or organizing items between individuals. All items in a shared unit will be managed under one account and treated as a single order.
Yes. All Cedar Bucket storage plans have a 2-month minimum. This helps us maintain efficient warehouse space and scheduling throughout the summer season. If you need storage for less than two months, the full 2-month minimum charge will still apply.
Any storage period that extends beyond a full 30–31 day cycle will be billed as an additional full month.
Example:
If your storage extends even 1 day into the next month, it will be billed as a full additional month.
5x5 Unit — $143/month

Ideal for oversized furniture or a bedroom plus living room furniture.
10x20 Unit — $750/month

A $500 deposit is required to reserve storage space. This deposit is applied to your final service costs.
Moving services are $175 per hour for two movers and a truck, with a 1.5-hour minimum for our storage + moving premium package clients. For moving only clients it is $190/hr with an 1.5 hour minimum. Actual billed time is calculated upon completion of your move.
Yes. Both must be scheduled ahead of time and are based on availability.
- Handyman services: $150/hour, 1-hour minimum
- Assembly services: $150/hour, 1-hour minimum for peak demand on site. $100/hour for premium package storage clients assembled at the Cedar Bucket.
To ensure belongings are returned in the same condition, Cedar Bucket requires:
- Mattress bags are required.
- Fabric items to be wrapped/protected.
- TVs packed in sturdy TV boxes.
- Glass, mirrors, and fragile items wrapped in bubble wrap.
- Bed frames, TV mounts, lamps and other items with loose parts disassembled, with all parts labeled separately.
- All items labeled on site by our movers using Cedar Bucket labels to ensure proper tracking.
Cedar Bucket may provide packing materials on a case-by-case basis, subject to review and an additional charge. Please see more instructions on packing in your Cedar Bucket Service Guide you receive post deposit.
Ship items to:
979 Highway 6 W
Oxford, MS 38655
Include your full name on the shipping label (matching our records). The flat fee is $200 for up to 10 packages of any size, plus $10 per package for additional items. Once received, we scan, track, and place them in your unit.
Your Cedar Bucket representative will stay in touch and send reminders, but clients must update us with confirmed times and locations. Because clients are often tied to university or housing schedules, please notify us as soon as you have your updated details. Without confirmation, we cannot guarantee scheduling. We will email and text our forms to fill out capturing this information before moving begins.
Yes. Either you or a representative must be present during your move. This ensures clear communication, prevents misunderstandings, and allows our movers to confirm handling of your belongings.
Cedar Bucket permits drop-off or pick-up only on a case-by-case basis, subject to review. $50 fee will apply, and Cedar Bucket reserves the right to refuse. If approved, all drop-offs and pick-ups must be scheduled in advance. All clients are required to use Cedar Bucket’s moving services for both move-in and move-out to ensure a safe, smooth, and trackable process.
Clients should prepare with the expectation that items cannot be accessed mid-term. The only exceptions are emergencies or critical unforeseen situations. Since items are stored safely above ground in our warehouse and require significant rearranging to retrieve, we ask clients to wait until their move-out date.
Cedar Bucket encourages clients to use our consignment resale platform, which markets items online and in our Oxford storefront. If you wish to sell items directly to someone outside Cedar Bucket, we generally cannot pull specific items. In rare cases, this may be arranged, but additional charges may apply.
No. Cedar Bucket is not liable for any lost or damaged items. While we follow strict procedures and tracking systems to minimize risk, some wear, loss, or damage is a natural part of the moving process.
