Many people who rent storage are going to use the same space for a long time. Whether they need to manage an estate, or simply have to downsize their home for economic reasons but do not wish to part with their furniture or otherwise, there are a lot of reasons why someone would need storage for years, maybe even decades. Many people who are looking for storage, however, may not exactly have that in their budget, or their plans. If that sounds like you, you are in luck. Even with short term storage goals, there are a lot of options available to you.
Many storage properties offer month-to-month leasing, which can be a huge help if you only need the space for a short time. What kind of use is a single month ideal for? Firstly, it’s of great benefit to those who are moving. You may not have access to your new apartment or home just yet, but you might also have to be out of your old home before the end of the month. No one wants to cram an entire move into a single day or even week, that makes an already stressful process even more stressful. Instead you can pack up and move out, little by little, into your storage area, then move everything out over time into your new home. Plus if you end up needing another month to get moved in while operating around your work schedule or other life events, you aren’t obligated or locked into anything long term, you just get more time to finish your move.
Secondly, college students or those who work seasonal jobs or positions can benefit hugely. If you need to store things close to your campus because you have a long commute, keep them in a small storage room, that way you can drive just a few minutes off campus to pick up your things, instead of having to drive an hour home and back because you left something on your desk. If you’re moving into a dorm or other downsized campus living, storage can be invaluable, tacked onto monthly rent for a much smaller apartment, a small storage unit will hold everything you don’t regularly need and save you a lot of money in the long run. Speaking of the long run, some people need storage during the semester, many need storage between semesters. In either case, renting for only some months out of the year is an ideal solution that will save you big.
Lastly those who travel, or need to travel routinely due to work, may find that they travel to only one specific location routinely. Let’s say the home office of the company you work for is situated the next state over. You travel there regularly during the course of your work, and stay in a hotel or something similar. One might find themselves wishing they had a few of the comforts of home with them during extended stays, so they rent storage. Now whenever you visit you practically don’t have to pack, you can stop by your storage property and pick up everything you need. Laptops, freshly cleaned suits, all things that can be a pain to carry through an airport become available to you every trip without having to think about it.
