With our moving house tips find out the many ways a large self storage unit could be extremely helpful in various house moving situations.

A large storage unit can be extremely helpful for house movers. If you’re downsizing, upgrading, renovating, or needing a space mid-move, a cheap self storage unit can provide you with all the space you need.

Here are just some of the ways a large self storage unit can make your moving process easier, more convenient and much more streamlined:

Entire Room Content Storage

A large unit can take the entire contents of a room. So if you are renovating a kitchen, bathroom or building a shed, a large storage unit can take the entire contents of that room whilst you complete the work. It can also store a selection of large items like bed frames, sofas, refrigerators and ladders if you need to keep these items stored whilst you move.

Storing A Vehicle

If you are moving into a city or you’re downsizing, you may not have onsite parking. You may still want to keep a vehicle for travelling or commuting. If this is the case, a storage unit can keep your vehicle safe and protected from the weather. A cheap self storage unit is also ideal for storing boats, camper vans and other vehicles that you may want to store for leisure use.

Keeping Items Secure Whilst Your House Is Worked On

Your new house may be being worked on by workmen and you may want to keep expensive sofas and ornaments safe until that work is over. Your cheap self storage unit will keep items completely protected until your workmen have finished, your new house is ready and your precious items need somewhere to go.

Storing Items During The ‘Settling Period’

There is a period of time when you move into a new house when you’re working out where everything should go, you’re settling in the kids and pets, and you’re cleaning the house top to bottom and carrying out essential maintenance. During this period it can be supremely handy to keep items stored in a cheap self storage unit and then move them back in at your own pace when you’re ready.

Avoiding Moving Costs

Having a company help you move is convenient but expensive. Instead, you could use your own vehicles to ‘go between’, keeping your items at the unit and ferrying back and forth into the new space when it is the right time. It will take more time but it will save you using a moving company.

Having An In Between Space When You’re In Between Homes

Maybe you have been living with your parents whilst you look for a home, or you’ve got a situation with a chain which has rendered you in between homes. Cheap self storage is really good for these situations because you don’t have to get rid of all your precious items just because you’re temporarily misplaced. You can use a large self storage unit to keep all your items until you finally have the home you’ve been waiting for.

A large self storage unit is extremely useful for movers in all different kinds of situation. Consider investing in the low cost facilities of a local self storage unit today, to make your moving process much less stressful.
