Moving Tips: Use Self Storage When Between Homes

Moving can be stressful! Self storage is a low cost, convenient solution while you make the move to your new space.

TOP THREE (3) REASONS TO USE SELF STORAGE WHEN MOVING

  1. Declutter your home to make the space more appealing to potential buyers.  Clear out closets, the attic, basement and garage and stow everything temporarily in self storage. Now home stage your place so that it is attractive to new home buyers.

  2. If you haven’t found a new space or need time before you can move into your new home, temporarily put it in storage. Self storage facilities often offer a short-term solution with month to month leases with no security deposit or fees. Keep furniture, appliances, and incidentals in a secure space until you’re able to move into your new home.

  3. Buy some time, plan on starting your packing and moving early by placing valuables in self storage. Take your time, get stuff organized to make the move smooth and stress free.

    • Stow away valuable and/or seasonal stuff.
      Glass vases, mirrors, and other priceless items that are fragile need to be carefully packed up for the move. Give yourself ample time to get things sorted, this will offset the possibility of items being damaged during the move.

    • Seasonal items, such as Christmas ornaments and outdoor furniture can be placed in storage ahead of time. Follow these helpful tips to preserve your valuables while in storage.

    • Vehicle storage. Whether you need to store a car, motorcycle or winter snow-mobile self storage provides convenient protection you need while you get settled in your new space.

Take Your Time to UnPack

Once you’ve finally moved into your new home, carefully consider what goes where and what no longer fits into your new space. Keep your storage unit until you can take the time to unpack your valuables. That way you won’t have boxes and items cluttering up your new home.
