Need to Hide Holiday Gifts? Seattle Now Has an App for That

Local Tech Start-Up Storrage.com Launches New 'Gift Hider' Service, Will Pick-up and Store 'Hard-to-Hide' Gifts, Deliver to Door Just in Time for Christmas

SEATTLE, Dec. 9, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- While most people see the holidays as a season of giving, others see it as a time for some serious snooping - namely through closets, garages and attics. But thanks to a new app that helps shoppers to easily hide gifts off-site, the season may be regaining some of its old magic.

Storrage, a rapidly-growing provider of self-storage home pick-up and delivery to the Seattle-area, today launched a new holiday service - called Santa's Gift Hider - that enables holiday shoppers in the Seattle-area to conveniently store hard-to-hide gifts like bicycles, Kayaks and golf clubs during the days and weeks before Christmas. Using a simple app from their smart phone or tablet, consumers can arrange for pick-up of each item and, at the same time, book a day and time to have the items delivered to their door before Christmas.

"We've enjoyed a tremendous year of growth in 2014 and want to use the holidays as a time to give back," said Storrage CEO and founder Terry Drayton. "With that in-mind, we're pricing the gift hider service at a very fun and seasonal price of $1 per item. Customers can use us to pick-up and deliver large items ranging from bicycles, skis, kayaks and paddleboards - all the things that are incredibly hard to hide."

Storrage drivers will meet customers at the stores they purchase the items from, at their workplace or any other mutually-agreed-upon location to keep items hidden.

To sign-up for the service, customers need to: download the free Storrage app to their iPhone, iPad or Android device; set-up an account; enter a day, time and location to pick-up the gift; enter a day, time and location to deliver the gift; and pay $1 for each item.  More details on the promotion can be viewed online at: http://www.storrage.com/santas-gift-hider/.

All items handled by Storrage are stored at a secure, restricted access, climate-controlled warehouse that's monitored 24 hours a day. Storrage picks up and delivers in prominently identified vans staffed by uniformed drivers. All staff are bonded to ensure professionalism, security and safety of customer items. Storrage also offers access to insurance on each item at a cost of $5 per month for items valued at $500 or less, $9 per month for $1,000 or less and $10 per month for $2,000.

Storrage provides service to more than 50 zip codes and covers most of King County. A complete listing of zip codes served by Storrage can be found at the company's website.

Based in Seattle, Storrage was founded in 2013 by serial entrepreneur Terry Drayton to meet the increasing need for low-cost, high-convenience off site storage for consumers including urban apartment and condo dwellers.  More information on the company can be viewed online at http://www.storrage.com
