When you’re looking to declutter your home or office, or need to store excess items during a move, renting a self storage unit can seem like an added expense. However, in the long run, renting a self storage unit can actually save you money in a variety of ways. Here’s why:
No Need for a Larger Home or Office
If you’re currently paying for a larger home or office space just to accommodate excess belongings, renting a self storage unit can save you money on monthly rent or mortgage payments. By moving items you don’t need on a daily basis into a storage unit, you can get by in a smaller, more affordable space.
Not paying for space you don’t need is especially important in the current environment of cost cutting, so before you start thinking you might need a bigger house, have a think to see if self storage could be a suitable alternative.
Protection for Valuable Items
When you store valuable items like tools, antiques, or collectibles in a self storage unit, you’re protecting them from damage, theft, or loss. This can save you money in the long run, as you won’t need to replace these items due to damage or loss.
This is particularly true for climate-sensitive items. Certain sensitive items like paintings and furniture can be damaged by swings in temperature and humidity. At Space Self Storage our units are clean, dry and secure.
Better Organization
When you have excess items cluttering up your home or office, it can be difficult to find what you need when you need it. By renting a self storage unit and organizing your belongings inside it, you can save time and money by avoiding the need to replace lost items or spend extra money on items you already own but can’t find.
Easy Access to Business Documents
If you run a business and need to keep important documents or files, renting a self storage unit can provide you with a secure, climate-controlled space to store these items. This can save you money by preventing loss or damage to important documents, and also by allowing you to easily access these documents when you need them.
Lower Moving Costs
When you’re moving house, renting a self storage unit can save you money by allowing you to move some of your belongings into storage before the actual move. This can make the move itself quicker and easier, and can also save you money on moving costs by reducing the number of items that need to be moved.
Depending on whether the house you want to move into is part of a chain, you might need to rent somewhere to stay in the between house-move phase. Moving some of your belongings into storage means you can rent a smaller house or apartment while you’re waiting for your future house to be ready.
By renting a self storage unit, you can save money in a variety of ways, from downsizing your home or office space to protecting valuable items from damage or loss. With a lowest price guarantee and a variety of unit sizes to choose from, you can find the perfect storage solution to meet your needs and your budget at Space Self Storage.
