Question on relocation

[Keridwyn]

Storage stretches to 400 inside, 40 outside when you relocate, so going from a small to anything else you won't reach that limit. As far as the garden goes it will just go into storage and be in a stasis mode. Everything will still be planted in it, but the growth process will not progress until you set it back down in the yard.

Not true. I had 300 items in my home and about 10ish in my storage when I went to relocate and was unable to until I removed ten items for the exact 300. Only then was I allowed to relocate. So anyone relocating needs to make sure they've got enough room in their storage (inside and outside) for all their furnishings.

What size house were you moving from and was that 300 between storage & inside placement or just placed inside the home? As far as the information given from SE goes, you're supposed to be able to move as long as the total doesn't go over 400 inside and 40 outside if you were to move everything in those areas to storage before moving since it squishes everything in there when moving.

Go to: Housing > Estate Settings > [Choose the estate in question] > Storeroom Status

It should give you the information there on how much furniture you have placed in the house as well as in storage. To relocate you'll want a green checkmark next to both Indoor & Outdoor furnishings under Relocation Status

If your total of furniture adding both placed & storage was below 400 inside and 40 outside and it still didn't allow you to move, that sounds like a bug that should be reported.

I was moving from a medium to a medium. I had 293 items placed in the house and approximately 10 in the storage for the house. I had a full yard and about seven outdoor items in storage. I had to remove items from both outdoor and indoor storage until my interior storage was empty and my yard storage was empty and was then able to move. It was also like that for both of my friends that moved from one small location to another small location. Our storage didn't expand, it only allowed for exactly what our housing limits were.

I would definitely report that as a bug in the bug forums then as both in-game and out of game information supplied by SE states otherwise.

If his/her house was medium then this isnt a bug because medium house actually have a limit of 300 items for inside stuff and 30 for outside. For more info read my post on previous page.

From the 4.1 Patch Notes in the housing section about relocation:

While the limit of storerooms is normally dependent on plot size, the limit for all plots will temporarily increase as follows to accommodate relocation:

Indoor Furnishings: 400 Items
Outdoor Furnishings: 40 Items

Provided that the numbers of furnishings is within these limits, the relocation can be completed even if they exceed the storage limits of the new location. The furnishings will be temporarily kept in the storeroom of the new plot. The furnishing storage limits when relocating are the same as the placement limits for a large estate hall. Therefore, if a player relocates immediately after patch 4.1 and does not use the storeroom prior to the relocation being completed, it is not possible to exceed the limits, regardless of the size of the estate hall.

Basically states that if you have 400 or less indoor furnishing (between placed items and items in storage) and 40 or less outdoor furnishings (between placed items and items in storage), then you should be able to relocate, as your storage will expand to 400 indoor furnishings and 40 outdoor furnishings.
