Self storage units are a way of helping people look after their property. When you use a self storage unit, you can rest easy knowing that your personal belongings are in no safer space. With this in mind, we’ve put together some of the biggest benefits of using self storage.
1. Helping You Move House
Moving home is such an exciting time but can also be very stressful. First of all you have to sell your current home but stepping back to look at all the belongings you’ve collected over the years may seem a bit daunting when it comes to decluttering. It is much easier to sell a clear and spacious property so decluttering is vital. Self storage makes this easy without having to get rid of any of your important possessions.
Not only this but once you have a sale on your house self storage can help you break down the process too. If the chain you are in is long or involves a lot of pressure you can use self storage short or long term to help you move quicker and easier.
We have units available for a few boxes or a whole house!
2. Protects You From Crime
We never think that we’ll be subject to theft. Unfortunately, as any victim of crime will tell you, it can happen to anyone. While we hope that none of our readers ever become victims of theft, sometimes using a self storage facility can give you peace of mind. This especially rings true if you’re away from home for a while (holidays, business trips etc), and you have some valuable pieces of property that you believe could be attractive to thieves.
At Green Oak Self Storage, we’ve taken every step we can to ensure the security of your property when it’s in our care. All our units are monitored 24 hours a day, with a PTI security system, and a 24/7 monitored CCTV system.
3. Offers Security When You Move Around
Following on from our last point, self storage can help those people who don’t stay in one place for very long. Students, for example, may often move around often, and may change accommodation several times during their life at university. The constant lugging of heavy equipment such as textbooks, TVs and desks can be cumbersome. In those cases, self storage units are ideal.
Similarly, many people are constantly on the move for work. Self storage units can help those travellers by giving their property a safe place to live until they return to a more permanent residence.
4. Keeps Things Safe When You Renovate
Home improvements can be fun and exciting, but also extremely messy. The last thing you want is to spill paint on your beloved furniture, or make a dent in the television when you’re moving a ladder. Using self storage can give you peace of mind while you’re upgrading to your dream home, and ensure that nothing valuable gets damaged in the process.
Popping your belongings into self storage may give you the extra space needed to be truly flexible in bringing your vision to life. Perhaps builders are overhauling a room, and need the entire space to work. Self storage can prevent the other rooms in your home from being overrun with clutter.
5. When You’re Running Out of Space…
Some items are worth a lot to us, and not just in terms of money. Many of our belongings have memories attached to them, and have a sentimental value that money just can’t replace. While donating to charity or throwing out is always an option, self storage offers you a less permanent solution.
Clutter builds up over time, especially when you’ve been living somewhere for a while. Even though we are attached to our belongings, the sheer amount of it all can weigh us down. Use a self storage facility to free up some space and free yourself from stress!
