If you’re tired of tripping over holiday decorations in July or feeling overwhelmed by the sheer amount of stuff in your home, no matter the time of year, you’re not alone! We usually think of using storage units for a move or for business purposes, but a storage unit can be a lifesaver for anyone looking to declutter their home, protect their belongings, or simply take back some much-needed living space.
Let’s dig into some storage unit benefits and reasons why you might need one, even if you’re not moving:
You Want to Minimize Stress During Home Renovations
When your home is overflowing with stuff, it’s hard to manage day-to-day maintenance, let alone bigger renovations! Finding a temporary home for your things while you do home projects that require plenty of open space to work, like painting the living room or refinishing your hardwood floors, will save you both time and extra headaches. Don’t worry about covering the furniture while you paint or stuffing all the contents from one room into another. Instead, consider a short-term storage unit to make your home repairs as hassle-free as possible.
You Need Space for Guests ASAP
Guest room? What guest room? Nothing strikes fear in the heart like impending long-term visitors when your guest bedroom is doing double-duty as an overflow space for home storage. Maybe your in-laws are planning a visit, or your college student plans to come home for the summer months. Give your guests a welcoming, clutter-free space and save yourself a ton of stress by booking a storage unit for all the belongings taking up way too much space in your spare room.
Your Existing Storage Is Overflowing
Your home is your escape from the stresses of work and the outside world. But if your home feels cluttered, you’re probably not feeling very relaxed when you’re there! Experts say that having a disorganized living space positively impacts our health and well-being, so making your home feel less chaotic is essential.
Garages, closets, and basement spaces are the first spots we look to for storage, but when these get full, it might be time to look into renting a storage unit. Marie Kondo was right – if things take up space in your home and don’t spark joy, it’s time to store them.
Your Seasonal Equipment Needs Somewhere to Go
Seasonal items like holiday decorations, patio furniture, and gardening equipment can take up a lot of valuable space during their off-season. Instead of having to dig through your garage or basement each season, try keeping these items in a dedicated storage unit. This way, you can easily swap out items at the end of the season without taking up tons of space in your home. And if your things require climate control, you can choose a storage space that regulates temperature and humidity levels while keeping your belongings securely stored until you need them again!
