In most cases, unfortunately, selling the house and when you are buying a new one doesn’t match up perfectly. Usually, there is a time lapse between these two. This is the case when you have to find temporary housing options in order to wait for moving to a new place.
Temporary housing options depending on your need and your budget
If you don’t need to wait a longer period to move in, then you can consider a bit more expensive temporary housing options. Unfortunately, sometimes people have to wait for a couple of weeks or a month or so, to finish their move. Normally this is the case when you really have to mind your budget. A moving itself cost and when you add buying a new place and temporary housing p[rice, then you will have a headache. Some temporary housing options can cost you less money. You can get a lot of help if you contact the professionals. This stand for advice as well as hiring them. Consider a moving company, such as Wailea movers to do most of the relocating.
Take care of your belongings
When you are in the situation, you need to move out and you have already sold your home, and then think about your belongings. If you are looking for temporary housing, it is easier to store your furniture and other things in storage. Explore your storage options, so you know in advance, what suits you the best. This is a good solution when you are using temporary housing for a while. If you have some family members or a friend that has enough space to store your belongings, you are in luck. That is the cheapest solution. Otherwise, ask around for the best prices and types of storage units.
Plan where you will store your belongings while moving.
Considering a moving is a stressful period in a person life, think about all possible ways to relieve that stress a little. When you hire a moving company, you have more services that you can use than simple transport. Some moving companies offer cleaning service as well as packing and unpacking service. Packing and unpacking moving assistance is a very useful service and if you do a proper research you will find that it doesn’t have to cost a lot. Not to mention that you will save yourself a lot of time and work.
Hotels and Hostels
The first thing that you can think of is a hotel, probably, when you need a temporary place to stay. This is also the most expensive solution. There are some hotels that offer extended stay and that is a little more affordable. Those are usually budget hotels that have discount rates for a longer stay. The price depends on the longevity of your stay and of course, it depends on a number of people. The upside is you have fresh and clean linens and towels. Well, you are living in a hotel, right? Bear in mind that price varies depending on a country you are living in.
Hotels are the most expensive choice, but you have full service.
Hotels are a similar option. They have larger rooms for more people if you need them. However, there are hostels that don’t have a bathroom in a room. There is a shared bathroom and these are the cheapest room types. But, think it through whether you can live like that for a certain while before you find permanent Hawaii real estate for you. Maybe for a day or two, but longer? It is quite uncomfortable.
Different types of holiday homes and home rentals
Today you can easily find online a variety of websites that connect holiday homeowners or managers with potential clients. Because you are in contact with the actual homeowner, you can agree on longer stay for the better price. You can rent an apartment or a house for a good price if you are staying for more than a week or so. Actually, they have a minimum number of nights you have to stay. It can be only longer than that minimum.
You have all needed appliances there, but they usually don’t have linens or towels, you have to pay it extra for that. Good thing is that you can arrange everything with the homeowner or property manager.
Airbnb
Airbnb became very popular in the last couple of years. That is a worldwide marketplace for rooms, apartments and house listings. Renting from Airbnb is similar to renting a regular apartment: you get the place and enter the tenant-landlord relationship. You can rent a place for as long as you need it. The upside to this is that you can see a price immediately so you don’t have to make too many calls or write emails to find what you need. The downside: the price.
Corporate housing
Corporate housing is a temporary housing option that is available for both individuals and families. These rentals are also completely furnished and you can rent it with internet service, appliances and sometimes a housekeeping service if you can afford it.
Corporate housing is usually fully furnished rental.
Determine how long you will be staying
This is very helpful to know when you are searching for temporary housing. When you know in advance, you can maybe bargain for a better price or conditions on your rental. Also, it is easier to know how long you will wait to finish your move, so you can hire movers. You can choose from many options because these are meant for business people that have to relocate for work. Therefore, it fits your exact needs.
All of the above is different in different parts of the country. If you are moving a long distance and you need to find temporary housing option for you or your family, make sure that you check all the options. Do the proper research or ask somebody who has done this already to give you advice. Anyway, you need to plan this well in advance. Moving is difficult and stressful, but when you can’t move in your new place right away…it can create many problems. So, be sure that you have planned and organized everything so it goes smoothly.
Wailea Movers and Storage are my go-to movers on Maui. They are professional, reliable and have a great crew. As an interior designer I utilize a lot of vendors and they are top-notch!
If you have nice things you need to ship from Hawaii to the mainland, I strongly recommend Wailea Movers and Storage. They aren't the cheapest alternative but they are outstanding, professional, careful, thorough and never stop working. They were amazing. Very impressed! Don't take chances with your precious possessions. Go with the best.
Best movers period. Should call them Hercules movers . Stong as ox and were in Total beast mode . Fast efficient friendly . Reasonable priced . Good energy and good vibes. Highly recommend . Very happy
Working with Wailea Movers has been a wonderful experience! They are incredibly easy to work with and always go the extra mile to help find the best solution.

10/10 service10/10 communicationThese guys are the way to go when moving to Maui. We moved 3 fully packed PODS from California to Maui. They went to the port and unloaded our stuff on to their trucks and brought it over to our place. It was easy to schedule, they were really careful with our furniture and boxes and they were quick and so friendly. We could not have asked for better moving experience. You hear all these stories about terrible movers and they are the opposite and set the standard for sure. Extra Mahalo to Tom and David who did our move.
Ryan and CJ were top notch! They were on time, worked hard throughout the entire process and were true to their word on price! I would highly recommend them for any move you need local, inter island and across the country!
My experience with Wailea Movers was great. They were flexible and patient through the scheduling process and the guys showed up on time with a great attitude, ready to go. They took good care of our stuff and I knew I had nothing to worry about. Thank you Isaiah and RJ for the excellent service!
Highly recommend Wailea movers, they were very professional. If you have expensive furniture and things you care about I wouldn’t trust anyone else. Wailea Movers get action! 🔨
I'd been trying to find a mini container to self pack and ship my things from Maui all the way to Michigan. All the services were either too expensive, too elusive, or too restricted. I met James at Wailea Movers and he just seemed like a friend from the start trying to help me get my things shipped. The pricing was great, simply based on cubic feet, no worry about weight, and there were no hidden charges... "just give me your boxes and I'll ship them wherever you need them to go." He urged me to buy heavy duty boxes, and I took my chances on what I had at my disposal, and I swear, everything showed up in my driveway as if I'd done it myself. My pallet was so well packed and better than I could've done myself. You never know what you're getting into with shipping a ton of stuff off Maui, and I literally shipped a ton, but James was very cool & confident about his services, and gladly in hindsight I can say that he and his team were wonderful and I couldn't be happier.
Thank you Daniela and Wailea Movers and Storage for booking with Move It.We are always here for your moving needs.Very easy to deal with.Move It: On Demand Moving & DeliveryTruck & Muscle Anytime You Need It
Ryan coordinated my whole move perfectly and him and Taylor were awesome on move day. I have used Wailea Movers 6 times and already have another move planned with them. They have great workers and always take the time to protect my furniture. Very professional. I highly recommend this company.
I was more than pleased with wailea movers! All three men were kind ,courteous and efficient. they got the move done less than the time we had booked for! They were friendly and very easy to work with. I would use them again if I ever were to move and I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for good help!
These guys are always first class. Had my third experience with their service and they never disappoint. Great communication ahead of my move and the morning of. They carefully and individually wrapped up all of my dishware items, protected the space I was leaving and my furniture and set everything just where I needed it in my new home. Highly recommend.
The guys at Wailea Movers did an excellent job picking up and delivering our pool table. There were 7 of them and they were professional, friendly, knew what they were doing and took the time to carefully wrap everything so that it wouldn't get damaged. I would DEFINITELY use them again. Thanks for doing such a great job guys!
Second time using these folks. Prompt. Courteous. Great communication. Fabulous moving experience definitely recommend. Thank you for the help and making a normally stressful situation almost fun! Mahalo
My name is Joseph, I am the owner of Smooth Movers LLC out here in Pahrump NV. James called us to unload a client of his moving to Pahrump. He made it very clear before using us that he valued quality over speed. 👉The items wrapped on this move was hands down one of the best we have seen. Today we took notes! After the move I called to discuss the bill. We quickly sparked a similar interest and spoke for an hour. We had a great conversation about some very positive things. Today Smooth Movers made a friend in the moving business. We are a newer company, these things mean alot to us. Thank you Wailea Movers 🙏
Top tier service! James was extremely accommodating with great communication throughout our experience. If you need a ramp to unload your container, they got you covered!
I recently had the opportunity to work with Daniela at Wailea moving and could not be happier. Communication was superb and the process was a breeze. Look forward to working with them again very soon!
Timely arrival and efficient workflow. The staff was communicative with great energy. Very polite . Moving is NOT fun, but the Wailea team made it a lot less painful !!😃
From the first phone call to schedule my move to finishing the move Wailea Movers and Storage were outstanding! Very friendly and professional help when I was scheduling my move. They were very accommodating and when I had to reschedule they made it super easy. On moving day they called me when they were on their way and communicated everything to me. The movers were quick and efficient and I was very happy with their service. I highly recommend them for your next move.
Really just the nicest, hardest working group of guys you could ever meet. Francisco, Spencer, David and Elijah were fast and efficient and worked wonderfully together as a team when they moved me last month. The communication was great, starting with texting me in the morning to let me know they were on their way. Ryan in the office came and gave me an in person estimate beforehand, and answered all my questions about the paperwork that I completed online. My only complaint and suggestion is that I did have a lot of questions because their on-line system for completing paperwork is confusing, and the process should either be modified to be more user-friendly or be explained better up front, which would eliminate a lot of back-and-forth (for example: you’re going to input all your credit card information for paying the estimate, but the total amount being charged to your card isn’t going to show up until the very end of the process, which is pretty nerve-racking because you have no idea if it’s going to be correct or not.)I look forward to working with this company again for my next move!
From initially reaching out, Wailea Movers were efficient and professional. I left a voicemail and recieved a call back within 4 hours. The quoting process was fast and easy and they kept in communication the days leading up to my local move. They sent a big truck and three guys and had my apartment loaded up in no time! The three guys they sent were lovely! They were intentional and proactive when loading/unloading and took care of all my belongings. Would definitely recommend and personally use them again!
