Most of us have too much ‘stuff’. The longer we live, the more ‘stuff’ we have – much of it things we may eventually want or need when we move to a bigger space. But what to do with it in the mean time? Fortunately, finding a place in Tucson, Arizona to store all that stuff is really easy. Here are some tips to help you find the right storage unit. 1. Take stock Evaluate what you want to put in storage. Will it fit in boxes, or will it need its own space in the storage unit? Furniture, appliances, and accessories like lamps rarely fit into boxes. 2. Measure Determine the approximate size of all that you want to store. This will let you know what size unit you need, but be sure to allow for extra room. This will save you problems and expense later on, when you want to store more things. You also want a storage unit that gives you room to move around inside it. Having one large enough to give you access to whatever you want to take out of storage, without having to move some or all of your things, is very important. Getting a small unit just to save money may cause you a lot of problems later when you need to add items to your unit, or when you want to retrieve something you have stored. So, be sure to allow extra room in the storage unit you choose. After all, your possessions are important to you – and you’ll likely want to access them later. If they weren’t important enough for you to keep, you would sell them or give them away. 3. Security Do you want the added security of an inside unit, or do you prefer the ease of getting into a drive up unit? Unless you have a hand truck to be able to move things into an inside unit, the type of things you are storing will dictate which of these two units is right for you. If you have furniture or other large items, a drive up unit may be your best choice.
