CRETE’S BEGINNING

packing

Wood’s Corners was located on the state road that had been laid out through that part of the county. Willard Wood was the man who located there in 1836, and for whom the place was named. In 1849 he platted and laid out the village and gave it the name Crete.

In 1880, 44 years after its founding, Crete was incorporated as a village but no fire department was formed. Instead, when a fire was discovered, citizens came running to pitch in. Neighbors brought their ladders. Men formed a brigade and passed buckets of water from man to man to douse the fires, for this they earned the name The Bucket Brigade.

In 1818, a young fur trader named Gurdon Hubbard arrived in Chicago. During his early time in the area, he traveled the trail from trading post to trading post between Fort Vincennes, Indiana, through Danville, Illinois, to Chicago. He was called “Swift Walker” by the Indians.

Hubbard bore a trail that became known as Hubbard’s Trail. In 1834, the trail officially became State Route 1. You can follow it all the way into Chicago, where we know it today as State Street.

HOW IT WORKS

We Bring It

We deliver an empty vault to your location. We offer curb to curb service.

You Pack It

Once your empty vault is delivered to your location, you can start packing.

We Move It

Once you’re ready, we will come and carefully move your filled unit to your next desired location. Or move your unit to our upscale storage facilities until re-location or redelivery is required.

WHEN SIZE MATTERS, CHOOSE VIA-VAULT

VIAVault units are a full 8′ in width compared to some companies that call their boxes 8′ x 16′ but in reality deliver the widest that they can deliver (due to their restricted lifting device) which is a container that is really only 7’2″ wide. Compared to these, VIAVault actually provides you with the extra 13.3 square feet of floor space that you are expecting. In actual packing area that extra 10 inches for the length of a 16′ box is equal to 106 cubic feet of storage space that VIAVault provides you.

How Does a VIAVault Move Compare to Traditional Movers?

Lets face it. Moving is stressful at the best of times – thats why at VIAVault we built our company around the idea of “convenience” and “ease”. These are two terms that are not typically synonymous with moving.

On the surface – local moving is local moving. Your things get from A to B and you are done. However, all the details in the middle are what cause the stress of moving. That’s why a VIAVault move is better across the board than working with a traditional moving company. A few things to consider:

  • Convenience – VIAVault are convenient. We deliver them when you want them and we move them when you tell us to.
  • Easy to Use  – with a VIAVault move there is no rush to load and unload a moving truck. You can take your time every step of the way.
  • Peace of Mind – with a VIAVault your items always stay with you. While your loading  or unloading your container and your posessions are at your location – nice and secure.
  • Your Schedule – traditional moving companies are always late, or always are delayed on delivery. VIAVaults delivers and moves on your schedule.

When you order a VIAVault – we deliver to you a container that is engineered from the ground up to be exceptional. Our containers are weather resistant, load at ground level and have the most usable interior space of any container on the market. Pure and simple they beat local moving companies hands down in every way.

Better Containers = Better Storage and Moving

Sounds pretty straight forward right? The simple fact is that VIAVault has taken the time to engineer the very best storage containers anywhere. We left no detail unaddressed, and didnt design our containers from the perspective of profit, but instead from the perspective of whats the best way to store and move our clients belongings?

Our containers are made of a weather resistant composite material that is as strong as steel, but doesn’t react to temperature changes – nor does it ever sweat. Helping prevent rapid temperature changes as well as mold from growing inside the containers. Unlike our competitors, we don’t use roll up or steel tube doors, our “vault” door offers security and convenience while allowing you to enjoy a container with the most usable internal space of any container on the market.

It doesn’t matter if you are considering a PODS, MIBOX, UNITS, PACKRAT or some other solution. They simply don’t stack up against VIAVault – between our incredible containers, fast deliveries, maniacal customer service and our great prices – there isn’t a better solution out there anywhere.

Great Experience - Totally Pleased

I used VIAVault as a first time storage user to assist with a remodel of my home. The staff (Doug/Steve) were very helpful, personable and professional. My unit arrived PRISTINE! I almost didn't want to put my old items inside. All items were returned with no damage and overall was a great experience - without draining my budget. I will definitely be referring VIAVault and using them again in the future for any of my storage needs.
