Do you have furniture cluttering your home? Is it stored under some tarpaulin getting wet and warped? Maybe you are starting a business and the spare room is getting full with stock. The thought of renting a commercial storage unit or looking into self storage units may seem an expensive option. In reality the rental of cheap self storage is there if you look in the right places and make the unit work for you.

A good storage facility location can offer different types of options to suit your needs. You may want to rent a locker long term and therefore be able to access cheaper monthly pricing. Or you may need a larger unit but only for a short time and then reduce down to a smaller unit.

A reputable self storage Facility will be able to be as flexible as your needs. If you also choose one which is in a central location you can get to and from it easily and if you have a unit with your own key then you can visit 24/7. This is ideal if you need to access your unit quickly for example to move in, or to access stock.

The money spent on a cheap self storage unit can actually save you money by protecting your belongings, valuables, stock and furniture from weather damage and theft as most storage facilities have security and some even have cameras and patrols.

So, before you think that a storage unit is too expensive, explore what’s available to you locally and talk to the facility administration about deals, flexible options and leasing terms. It could be just the storage you need!
