Earlier we explained that people who are moving represent the largest group of self-storage renters (see “How self-storage makes your move easier”). The -logical- second largest group of renters are people who are facing a lack of space in their home or just want to be more efficient with the space they do have. They see their self-storage unit as an extension of their home.
Seasonal items
Ski equipment, Christmas decorations, winter tyres, winter duvets/blankets, etc. during the winter. Garden furniture, mobile air conditioning, camping equipment, barbecue, etc. during the summer. There are many items that you only use at a certain time of year. The rest of the year, these items are in the way or take up space that could be better used. Self-storage offers a solution for this!
Collectors
A large collection can hardly be displayed in the house. Passionate collectors therefore like to store part of their collection in a safe self-storage unit. Moving to a self-storage unit is also an excellent time to make a detailed inventory of your collection.
Sports enthusiasts
Is your sports equipment (or that of your partner or kids 😉 ) taking up too much space? For sports like swimming or running, sports equipment is obviously rather limited. Other sports require more and larger equipment. Think of a racing bike, skis, golf clubs or a surfboard. These are often expensive items that you not only want to store neatly but also safely.
Hobbyists
Creative minds often use self-storage as an extension of their studio. Craft materials, paints and other supplies, as well as finished projects can be stored here in optimal conditions.
Home office
Since the outbreak of the corona pandemic, teleworking has become more and more common. A place in the house where you can work comfortably is no longer a superfluous luxury. Often, it is not necessary to carry out major renovation works for this purpose. With the help of self-storage, you can transform your cluttered room into a worthy home office in no time!
Are you also struggling with a lack of space at home? By renting a self-storage unit you instantly create more space for yourself and your household. Your stuff is stored at least as safe as in your home and easy accessibility is guaranteed.
