5 Ways You Can Benefit From Affordable Storage

Changes in your life circumstances, the space in your home, and even the local climate can make storing your belongings a necessary option at times. However, to make this sustainable, it’s important to find a storage solution that works for you. With the right service provider, here are 5 ways you can benefit from affordable storage:

1. Working overseas
2. Extended travel
3. Between Houses
4. Seasonal storage
5. No space in the garage

Working Overseas

It’s not uncommon to spend a year or more out of your career working overseas. However, what should you do with all of your household belongings while you’re away? Ask yourself the following questions:

• How long will I be away for? 
• Do I intend to come back?
• Can I store things with family and friends?
• Do I want to keep my things, or start over when I return?

If you’re planning to return and want to keep your things, but don’t want to impose on family and friends to store them, off-site self storage is the answer. Also, just in case you decide to extend the duration of your overseas work period, affordable storage hire means that you won’t be stressed about inconveniencing others!

Extended Travel 

Are you planning the vacation of your dreams? Planning to sail around the world, or travel for a year or longer? Long-term storage for travellers  is a convenient way to stash your belongings in a secure location, while you rent your own house out, or exit a rental agreement. No need to pay rent or mortgage for a year while you’re away!

With affordable off-site container storage, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing that your things are in a safe location, while you save money on rent – or even make money from rent payments!

Between Houses

What happens if you have sold your house, but are yet to find a new address? In many cases, people choose to take a short-term rental, or stay with family while they keep looking for a new house. Yet what will you do with all of your worldly belongings and household goods?

It’s not practical or preferable to lug everything with you to a temporary rental – and you certainly can’t bring it if you’re a guest in someone else’s house! An easy solution is to hire a shipping container as part of our Self Pack DIY Removalist Package. You can pack everything into your container  in your own time, and then have it stored at our secure storage facility in Narangba, Queensland.  

Seasonal Storage 

Depending on the season, it’s a sure bet that you have a range of items that you aren’t using for part of the year. For example:

• Clothing | when the weather turns hot and humid, you won’t be needing that winter clothing
• Sports Gear & Equipment | such as camping gear, diving and snorkeling equipment, jet skis, boats – most people are using these things infrequently throughout the year
• Outdoor Furniture | some outdoor furniture just doesn’t get used during particular seasons, such as during heavy periods of rainfall

Instead of having these, and other similar items sitting around your house taking up space or getting worn out – why not put them in storage?

No Space in the Garage

Are you sick and tired of a garage that’s crammed to the hilt with extra clothes, books, sports equipment, and similar items? Wondering what to do with your stuff when you need more space? If you’re dreaming of the day when you can actually park your car inside the garage, off-site storage is an affordable solution. It’s also super convenient to access whenever you need – simply contact us and book an appointment time for when it suits.
