Self Storage 101: Short Term Storage
Apr 24, 2020
When thinking about renting a unit for storage there are a few things to consider. You will need to know how much space you need, when you will need it and how long you will be using the space for.
As with Long term storage, the need for a short term storage unit could be for many reasons. You may be re-decorating the house and need a place to keep your valuables safe and clean or you are moving and want to stage your home for prospective buyers. This is a great way to get your belongings out of the house temporarily. We also have a lot of customers renting storage while head away on an extended holiday or work trip. Some reasons are more common than others but here are a few that we commonly come across.
Student Storage
If you are a proud parent who's kids are finally off to university then you may find that at the end of term they will be coming home for the holidays with a lot of extra furniture from their uni digs. Or they may just not feel happy with leaving all their gear with housemates for long periods of time.
The other student storage need usually comes down to logistics! Carting a trailer up and down the country at the end of each year just isn't practical and you'll save a lot of rent money if you put everything into a short term storage unit for the holidays.
Moving house
As we've already mentioned, you may want to rent a unit to declutter or stage your home while its on the market.
But Short term storage units help our customers when moving-related mishaps happen, like if the closing date on your new home gets pushed back.
Business Storage
Moving offices or starting a new business can be a hectic time. Renting a dedicated business storage space for document, furniture storage, stationery storage or whatever you need rather than immediately filling up your new space with your existing items can make all the difference.
