Just about everyone has heard of renting Public Storage units, but they may not realize how many different ways those facilities are used. In fact, there are a number of ways that the units can be utilized for short-term and long-term applications. Here are some examples.
Preparing for a Move
Selling a home and planning to move a new one involves getting the old place ready for interested buyers to visit. Many real estate agents will recommend packing up a lot of the personal items as a way of making it easier to stage the house. Renting some kind of Public Storage for those belongings ensures they are boxed, safe, and have a place to stay until the time comes to move them into the new home.
Keeping Order in the House
Choosing to rent a storage space makes it easier to keep closets and attic spaces organized. Only items that the family uses frequently remain at home. Things like seasonal decorations or furnishings that will not be needed for some time can easily be moved to the unit. When and as they are needed, it will be simple enough to retrieve them.
Storing Dorm Furnishings over the Summer
Colleges and universities generally do not allow students to leave their personal belongings in dorm rooms over the summer. That means those items have to go somewhere until the new term starts. Rather than shipping them home and having to ship them back in the fall, why not rent a storage unit near the college? This will make it all the easier to set up living space once the student has a dorm assignment for the fall term.
Protecting Boats and Recreational Vehicles
When the weather turns cold, most people need to find a place to store their boats and recreational vehicles until warm weather returns. A climate-controlled storage unit is a great solution. The equipment is not subjected to the elements and will be fresh and ready for use when summer rolls around again. Whatever the need happens to be, it makes sense to contact the team at Byron Cowling Moving & Self Storage. With a little planning, they can recommend a storage unit that is ideal for the purpose, something that makes for a happy client.
