Helps you be more organised

Renting a storage unit near your home is a great way to clear out both your living and working space. Depending on the number of things you need to store, you can easily find a storage unit that meets your needs. Whether you need to use it to store away items while renovating, moving or simply just because you need more free space in your home, a storage unit can make a huge difference in the look and feel of your personal space. There are countless things that you can use your unit for and while you can certainly use it to store away items for the long-term, you can also use it to organise your home depending on the season. If you already have limited space in your home, then a unit will come in handy to safely store winter bedding, heaters, clothing and decor until the summer season arrives. You’d be amazed at just how much of a difference having an empty cupboard or two can make!

Positively impacts your mental health

Personal space plays a huge role in our mental health and wellness and having a cluttered and untidy living environment can make for some negative side effects. Use your storage unit to store items that don’t bring you joy but that you can’t get rid of like family heirlooms, photo albums or bulky furniture. Just knowing that your home environment no longer contains items that make you anxious can make a world of difference to your emotional and mental well-being. Plus, it means that you have more space and air-flow for some indoor plants!

You can live a minimalist lifestyle

A few years ago, minimalism was all the rage - and it’s easy to understand why. If you find your space has become too cluttered, then use a storage space to store maximalist items that you’re not prepared to sell or donate. These can be anything from a bright and spunky couch to an old cupboard that takes up so much space. Even storing 3 or 4 pieces of furniture can make your home feel bigger, brighter and more minimalist!

Use it for your business

Even though you might already have an office, using your storage unit for your business is a great way for you to declutter your office space. Impressing clients in a cluttered environment is never a great look, especially if you have staff working out of the same space too. Using a storage unit to store older files, unused desks and office equipment and even extra PCs or laptops will not only leave your workspace tidy but help you know where all of your things are since you don’t have to stuff them in all-in-one space. Did we mention that it’s safe too?

If you work from home, then a storage unit is probably going to be even handier for you. Chances are, you’ve needed to make space for your desk and work files, so why not use your unit to store away any tables and extra chairs that might be taking up space in your home?

Makes your home easier to clean

Living in a decluttered and minimalist environment that has no unnecessary furniture, books or items strewn around means that you, happily enough, have an easier time cleaning your home!

Less clutter means less dust, but it also means that it will be easier for your mop, broom or vacuum to reach the hard-to-miss spots around the home where dust bunnies collect.
