As the weather continues to warm up here in Phoenix, Arizona, many residents find themselves ready to switch into their Spring mindset. Spring is such a great time to live in the Valley of the Sun with its many outdoor activities and amazing weather.
Along with getting out to do more, many people also find that it is time to do some spring cleaning around the house. This often includes getting rid of excess clutter that takes up too much space. More than often, we have items in our home that we don’t have space for, but aren’t ready to completely get rid of either. You might have plans for these items down the road or will need them again in the fall.
Using a self-storage unit is a great way to hang onto those items while clearing your home of clutter as you go about your spring-cleaning. You can store items that you need out of the house but will need to access again or maybe find a new way to organize your home. Many people treat their storage unit as an extension of their home knowing that they can easily get to items they need whenever they need them.
Clear Out the Garage
For many people, the garage of their home becomes a “catch-all” for anything and everything we can’t find a place for inside the home. Even with the best intentions, it can be very easy to overload your garage and find it looking extremely cluttered. A self-storage unit is a great solution for clearing out and organizing your garage.
Store things like holiday decorations and winter clothing in your storage unit until you need them again. Maybe you have a project in your garage like a motorcycle or piece of furniture you are refinishing that you won’t be able to get to for a while. Keep these things in your storage unit until the time is right.
De-Clutter Your Closet
Closets are precious real estate for most people. It’s sometimes amazing just how much we can fit into a tiny closet. Closets are also known for becoming cluttered too quickly. Consider using a small storage unit as an extension of your closet. Again, you can keep your bulky winter sweaters and coats in storage rather than having them take up space in the closet.
Winter apparel such as boots, gloves, and scarves can be packed up and stored in storage until you are ready for them. You might also consider keeping your documents and files in storage too. Most storage facilities have climate-controlled units to keep your paperwork in good working order.
The more you look around, the more you will realized that there are many items throughout your home and garage that could easily be stored in a storage unit keeping your house clear of clutter.
