When you think of self storage, what comes to mind? Most likely, moving to a new home or changing locations. While many people use self storage for belongings while they move, there are many other reasons as well. Here a a few top reasons you might want to use self storage.
For Merchandise
Are you an active seller on eBay, amazon marketplace, or other online stores? Self storage is a great place to keep your merchandise when it outgrows your home or office.
To Reduce Clutter
Is clutter taking over your house, but you just don’t have the time for spring cleaning right now? Don’t risk giving away stuff you might need someday. Move some of your stuff to self storage until you have the time to sort through it.
For Special Activity Items
Do you play sports or participate in other activities that require special items? Self storage can be a great place for these items because they tend to be bulky and require a lot of space. Some examples are mountain bikes, skis or snowboards, climbing or hiking gear, and paintball equipment. Simply pick up these items on your way to the activity site the day you need them.
For Seasonal Items
Are there certain items you only need during a specific season? Put them in self storage when they start taking up too much room in your garage, or basement. Some examples are holiday decorations, lawn chairs, party or event tables, and bulky winter gear.
For Your Collection
Do you collect items and need a clean, dry, cool, place to keep them safe? With climate controlled indoor units, you’ll never have to worry about damage or wear and tear to your collection. Some examples are antiques, dolls, wine, historical artifacts, jewelry, paintings and records.
