Are you making the most of your storage?
Even though I’m not a huge advocate of storage units (and I think you know why!), it is sometimes necessary to rent one—Temporarily! 🙂 You might be downsizing and can’t bring yourself to part with your kids’ memorabilia, or you might be doing some renovations and need somewhere to put furniture, etc. until it’s finished. Whatever the reason, there are a few things to think about while packing and storing your things

Is your storage unit organized or a mess?
This summer, many of my clients are moving into, or out of, their homes, and have needed to rent storage units or PODs. (In my professional opinion, that is the ONLY reason you should need a storage unit!) 🙂 Believe it or not, making a plan before you choose the size, and before you fill it, makes a huge difference! Follow these 6 steps, and the job with go smoothly. If you’re renting a moving van to get your things to the storage unit, I especially agree with tip #4. Loading the van correctly is key! Good luck!

What is the best way to organize my stuff in my storage unit?
Organizing your belongings inside your storage unit is an important step you really need to think about when utilizing self storage. If you know how to organize a storage unit, you will be able to easily access anything at any time without stress or hassle. This step is often overlooked. And when it is, that day comes when you need an item all the way in the back and underneath several boxes, and you realize you have to move everything around just to reach it. Well, that’s if you even remember where you put it!
