Keep your items safe in between homes.
Moving is a great time to take advantage of storage units. Most moving companies offer storage along with their moving services. If you are moving out of your current home before your new home is available, storage is a great solution. You can keep the items in storage for any number of days or months while you crash at a friend’s or rent a hotel.
Need Extra Space
If you have too much stuff and just can’t bear to part with any of it, a storage unit can be a great way to keep your items safe and sound without springing for a more expensive apartment or a bigger home. A piece of advice though, make sure you do your best to clean out your belongings before you invest in a storage space. No need to pay for items you don’t want! This works great for businesses too- if your company has equipment that you can’t store at your office, consider leaving them in a storage unit until you need them.
Preserving Antiques
If you have a valuable collection that won’t fit at your home, you can keep it safe and sound at a local storage unit. This is usually worth it if your collection is worth more than the cost of storing it. You should make sure your storage unit is insured and secure before trusting it with your valuables. A good piece of advice is to go there and check out the location and the units themselves prior to committing.
