Choosing The Right Self Storage Solution

Moving home in a rush can leave you with next to no time to store surplus items, particularly if you want them out the way to decorate your new home. Choosing the right storage unit is important if it’ll be housing your personal belongings for extended periods of time. 

Below are some things to think about to help you choose the right storage unit for you.

Access

Think about how often you need to gain access to the stored items. Some storage facilities have set opening times meaning your belongings may be inaccessible if you need to get to them.

Size

Most storage companies will offer various sizes to cater for their customers. Ensure you’ve checked the size of your belongings, so you have a good idea of what storage facility you need.

Agreement lengths

If you’re planning on leaving your belongings in storage, it’s important to check with the company the different time periods available. There’d be nothing worse than your agreement coming to an end whilst you’re not ready to take back your belongings.

Security

It’s essential that your personal possessions are looked after in a secure storage facility, always check that the units are secure and weatherproof.

Indoor or Outdoor?

Whilst outdoor units are highly convenient in terms of access, they lack the security or added benefits such as climate control that indoor units have.
