Using self-storage can be helpful for getting unnecessary items out of your way when moving, or even long term. But it is important to make sure you have an idea of what it will cost you before deciding to use it.
Depending on your situation, self-storage can help reduce the stress on moving day and can provide somewhere safe and secure to keep items that you are not able to move on the big day.
It will also depend on how long you need to store your belongings, but it can be incredibly useful for downsizing and renovating.
Comparing and researching before choosing a storage facility can get you the best deal for your needs.
Long-term storage is anything that is kept in storage for more than 3 months. Short-term storage is only available up until 3 months.
Usually, storage facilities will go up in price when there’s more demand. Therefore, in slow seasons such as winter you might be able to find better deals due to the decrease in demand.
