Why Should You Rent a Residential Storage Unit?

October 3, 2015 by Waukesha Storage

For many folks, renting a residential storage unit seems like a strange decision—until those same people find themselves in a situation that makes renting a storage unit a smart, economical choice. So, what are the most common reasons that people in Waukesha rent storage units? Here are just a few:

Downsizing

Whether by choice or out of necessity, many people find that the time has come to downsize and de-clutter. For some individuals, this is part of simplifying their lives. For others, it’s a necessary adjustment due to income or employment issues. Either way, storing valuable items in a secure unit during a downsize gives you the time to decide what you truly want to keep. Plus, should you choose to sell any of your downsized items, renting a storage unit gives you the time and space needed to sell your stuff for a fair price.

Hobby and Recreational Equipment

Many people who enjoy the outdoors in the summer find storing their summer equipment during the winter difficult. Kayaks, ATVs, canoes and the like all take up quite a bit of space. Putting items like these in winter storage doesn’t just free up space in your garage, it can also help protect them from environmental damage they might suffer if you left them out in the elements.

Retirement, Loss, and Divorce

In general, major life changes can be extremely hard, and retirement, loss of a family member, and divorce are no exception. As people are adjusting to their new lives and lifestyles, storing items that aren’t necessarily used but that may have a great deal of sentimental value can make difficult life changes a bit easier.

Relocation Logistics

Sometimes moving from one home to another doesn’t happen as smoothly as you might like. If you’re forced to stay with friends, family or a local hotel before you can move into your new home, renting a residential storage unit for your belongings in the interim makes sense. Why would you move and unpack all your belongings in a temporary living space, when you could keep them packed and stored, all ready for when you can finish your move?

Space Issues

In areas with high costs of living and expensive living spaces, renting a storage unit to store items that aren’t used regularly often makes sense. Depending on housing costs in your area, for a fraction of the price that renting or buying a larger home would cost you, you can rent a unit to store your extra items.
