Did you know that our Storage Units aren't just for long term...?
A common question we get asked when people are looking for storage options is if they will be tied into a long term contract with their storage unit. Quite simply the answer is no.
We understand that everyone had different needs and circumstances and we do the best we can to accommodate these. Quite often our customers do need a more long-term Storage space, wether it is to free up some space at home or for retail businesses looking for somewhere to keep their stock or inventory. But there are a number of short-term uses for self storage that people often don't think of.
Moving on & Moving up
Moving house is up there as one of the most stressful situations a person can experience. If you are selling up and relocating, waiting to get the keys for new dream house or the kids have finally flown the nest and you want the downsize there are a few uses for short term storage.
If you're planning on putting your house on the market then you will want to showcase your home as best you can. The bast way to help potential buyers to imagine their own items in the space is to remove yours. You want to 'dress' your house with nice simple furniture, empty those cupboards and clear out the garage to demonstrate how much additional space there is. It doesn't mean storing everything you own, just the unnecessary things that you don't want to throw out!
Short term storage can also be a great option if you are planning to move house and aren't able to do this all in one go. Much like selling your home, putting less important items in storage leading up to moving day could make settling into your new home a lot simpler. Pack and unpack at your own pace without tripping over boxes for weeks before and after the move!
Starting or Moving your Business
Long term business storage is a very popular option for many company's who need somewhere to keep documents, stock or for many other reasons.
What if you are planning on moving your team to a new office space? Just like moving house, this can be incredibly stressful and the last thing you need is to be worrying about where all the office chairs went in the move while still trying to run your business! Instead, you could rent a storage unit
for documents, stationary and extra furniture that you don't need right away. Your team can settle into their new work space and once again, no one is tripping over unpacked boxes!
Don't let the rent ruin your travels!
Traveling overseas and taking extended time away to see the world is becoming more and more popular. With more and more people working from home or remotely the need for short term storage is becoming more and more popular. If you are planning on heading away for a few months and don't have family or friends who can can take care of your belongings then the rent on a storage unit will be significantly cheaper than if you are renting your own home. Freeing up that cash for your time away can make all the difference.
Maybe you are planning to rent out your house while you travel? Keeping your belongings securely locked away
is a great option for peace of mind while you travel.
