More and more people decide every day to trust their belongings in the hands of professionals and rent a unit. Numerous reasons stand behind this decision, and we are going to examine them all. But most importantly, we will pinpoint why having extra space available only to you can be beneficial in those exact instances.
The longer you live in one place, the more stuff you collect. Slowly your home will start to overflow with things like old furniture, sentimental family memorabilia, etc. If you are not ready to part with your items and sell or throw them away, the best solution is renting self-storage. You can arrange everything there. Think about the unit as an extension of your home or as the basement you never had. A big plus is that most facilities have lower taxes the longer you rent. Additionally, your valuable memories will be under 24/7 surveillance and will be properly insured and secured from robberies and other damages.
From time to time your home needs to be renovated whether it is a simple paint job or you are adding another floor to your house, you have to make some preparations in advance. Rent a storage unit and transfer all of your furniture, carpets and anything that could be damaged by your contractors. This way, you will have more space in your home, save money from furniture repairs or replacement and don’t need to lose your sleep over the damaged couch. Not to mention the clean up after everything is over will be significantly easier. This solution is ideal for smaller properties as you physically don’t have where to move your staff.
House removals are a hassle, but when they become international, many problems could arise. Sometimes your shipping containers can arrive at your new residence before you or there may be a problem with the home you just rented/purchased. A great backup plan is to have a place where you can put all of your things without having to worry about them. Thankfully most reputable removal companies offer such facilities included in the price of the international move. But if you are organising everything by yourself and are using limited external help, renting a self-storage is a must. The unit will ensure your belongings’ safety and give you time to set up your new house.
Similar to how it is with house moves when you are relocating your business, you need a safe space to put your inventory. Containers or car and truck trunks are not suitable for paperwork or electronics to be kept for a long time. A self-storage in the city you are moving to will allow you to set up adequately your working space. There are many things you must consider when moving your business. Setting up your servers, arranging your archives and putting together the individual workspaces for your employees are just to name a few. More on that topic you can find in our office moving guide.
If you are planning to take a short break from your studies and go back home for a while, you don’t have to take everything with you. Some special dormitory removal services will pack your things and store them in your very own unit.

In the shadow of the recent health crisis, lots of businesses had to close their doors. So what do the owners did with their stock? In this situation, the ideal solution is to rent a self-storage and try to shift your business to an online one. You don’t need a physical place where people go, just rely on the e-commerce channels and keep your inventory in a safe, well-ventilated unit that you can access at all times. It is more budget-friendly to pay minimal rent for a 10 x 10 ft unit than a store at the mall.
Some jobs require constant travelling. If you spend your time in the same two or three locations each month, there is no need to carry all of your belongings with you.
