Storage Changes For Path to Summer

Self-storage is a fantastic way to adapt to the storage changes near Summer. These events cause a shift in required space, leaving you with limited options for your items or current arrangements. Events, including moving house, students returning home, or even lifestyle changes, can affect your day-to-day life. To prepare for these changes, we have compiled a few ways you can use your unit when a shift pops up. Here are a few ways you can adapt as these changes happen alongside the weather.

1 Big Self Storage serves as a local storage solution within Thurrock, granting locals and businesses an external storage solution. Common uses for our units include spare storage with 25 sqft space, seasonal storage with a 50 sqft space, and even moving house with our large 150 sqft units. Our units range from 12 to 200 sqft, allowing you to find the best solution for your storage needs. We also feature an Extended Hours service for access outside our operating hours, including bank holidays.

Storage Changes Into Summer

We have many ways our storage units can help with storage panic. Storage changes often occur during Spring, as major shifts in daily life lead up to Summer. These can include making the most of the space you have for better weather or a change in home life. Counteract these storage changes, which might involve the following circumstances.

Uni Student Return

Students may be returning from university can often involve storage changes in two ways. Either they have a surplus of items they used to keep in their dorms, or their original bedroom has been used as a new storage space. Both often require a unit to help organise or simply keep any items that take up vital space for their return. Our 25 or 50 square feet units can help you store the contents of a small bedroom, which helps you get ahead of their move back in.

Declutter Unused

Storage changes can often be a collection over time, which is why most homes and workplaces become cluttered. This can cause a blockage in daily life or activities if you have to sift through a mountain of items just to find one in particular. Clear what you can’t or don’t use without throwing away, so you can keep what you have, but make the key possessions accessible.

Awaiting Moving Chain

Many people move home this time of the year, which presents itself with specific challenges for storage changes. This includes staging the property and even sudden chain delays occurring. Self-storage becomes the oasis for any amount you may not want around. Keep stress levels to a minimum by putting the worst into a unit so you have a smaller list to worry about until the move is ready.

Next Season Holdings

There are many items you can do without during the warmer months. Thick coats, heaters, ski gear, and thick duvets are among the key items you may want to consider placing in a storage unit. Storing with us will not only open up much needed space but also grant better access to what you need. You can also protect them further with bubble wrap and boxes that we sell on-site, helping you keep them secure until its time to get them out again.
