Okay, let’s explore the worlds of mini storage space more info, but let us keep it real, and this time a bit human. Imagine: You have stuff. Imagine this: You’ve got a lot. You’ll always have that pile of things you might need someday, no matter what Marie Kondo does to your life. Mini storage areas are the heroes of our battle against clutter.
Storage units, you say? You’re probably thinking, “Well, that’s for people who collect too many Christmas decorations or have an unhealthy attachment with their college books.” Keep your horse! These small storage warriors have more versatility than Swiss Army knives.
Take Dave, for instance. This guy is a musician with an incredible guitar collection. Slash would be envious. His apartment is? Not so spacious. To keep his axes safe, he uses a mini-storage to prevent his living area from becoming a makeshift museum of guitars.
Sarah is a woman who has a side hustle selling handmade jewelry on the internet. She was losing her mind (and dining table) with all her crafting supplies. One small storage box later, and voila. She now has her work space back and is able to find everything she needs without having sift through piles.
The goal is to free up your space and your mind, not just store your things. Try relaxing in an area where there is so much stuff on the floor. It would be like meditating at midnight in Times Square.
Choosing the perfect mini-storage isn’t rocket surgery, but it does require some consideration. First, consider the location. You don’t want to be far from your apartment if you’re planning to come and go frequently. Convenience matters.
The issue of security is also a major concern. This is not the place to store your old socks (hopefully). Find a location with cameras, good lighting or even a Spike-named guard dog.
Also, don’t overlook climate control. Climate-controlled units will be invaluable if the items you store are susceptible to being roasted during summer and frozen in winter.
Flexible thinking is essential. There are always unexpected events in life. Perhaps you need to add more space for your six new cats or reduce the size of your old pinball machine because you finally sold it on eBay. Storage that allows you the flexibility to grow or shrink without hassle is a must.
Mini storage spaces can be compared to those friends who always come through when needed. They’re ready to protect your extras or give you more breathing room in the home. It might not be glamorous but it sure makes life easier.
When you are surrounded by “I may need this one day” piles, don’t despair. There is probably a small storage unit with your name waiting to rescue you from your own sanity (and save your life).
Then, take a moment to relax and grab a cup of coffee (or something stronger) before you start searching for that perfect spot to stash your extra bits. The rewards are great for those who persist. In a day neither eco-friendly homes nor sustainable living can be achieved. The best legacy we can leave is to build a home that’s sustainable. Cheers!
