10 Reasons To Consider Self Storage For New Year

Find out 10 reasons that self storage needs to be top of your to-do list in the New Year.

In the New Year we all look at the various ways we can improve different aspects of our lives, whether that is with weight loss, exercise, home improvements or starting a new career.

Moving away from the usual fitness plans and abstinence plans, we have a slightly different suggestion for you to consider in the New Year – self storage.

We know that self storage can actually make a huge difference to your life, in many ways. It could even help you with your New Year’s resolutions.

If you still need some convincing, here are 10 reasons to consider self storage for New Year:

1.  New Hobbies

In the New Year we often look to enrich our lives with new activities and hobbies. Maybe you always wanted to collect wine or, perhaps you love crafting and want to get stuck in to a new project. With cheap self storage, you can dedicate a space to your hobby. A place to store your hobby items that could be as small as a gym locker, or a full size room. It’s really handy and feels really special too, to have a whole room dedicated to your hobby and only your hobby.

2.  Excess At Christmas

Christmas is a time of excess and when the big day is over, suddenly the house feels really small. All these new ornaments and accessories, clothes and toys for the kids. Decluttering is a great idea after Christmas to clear out the excess items, and to perhaps store seasonal items like Christmas decorations, so you can reclaim your home again.

3.  Exercise & Health

If you are dedicated to being healthy again then you may well have treated yourself to exercise equipment. These items aren’t small and may be a struggle to store at home. Items like bicycles, gym gear, ski equipment and other accessories may be a great candidate for self storage. Who knows, you may even be able to use your unit as a mini gym depending on the rules of your facility.

4.  Startup Plans

If you plan to start a business, cheap business storage helps to keep your new stock secure, and it’s much cheaper than an office or warehouse contract.

5.  Home Office Plans

If working from home is likely to be more permanent moving forward, why not clear out the spare room into low-cost self storage and create a gorgeous home office?

6.  A New Pet

If you, like many others, have a new member of your family coming over the winter months, it could be a great idea to use affordable self storage temporarily to save your belongings from being toileted on, or chewed.

7.  Better Home Functionality

If you crave better home functionality, decluttering is a big first step and self storage can help with that. It can also help to have some self storage to make the most of the space you do have.

8.  Home Renovation

Lots of people start decorating or renovating their home in the New Year. Cheap self storage can help with this process by giving you somewhere safe and dry to clear your furniture into whilst you do the work.

9.  Selling The Home

Selling your home in the New Year means creating a blank space for a successful sale. Self storage can help you stage your home, and it is also a great middle ground for belongings when you finally move house too.

10. Having More Flexibility

Having more flexibility overall can give you some breathing space with both your domestic and professional life. Storage can give you the added flexibility and functionality of an extra room in your house, which is incredibly helpful day to day.
