When you need some place to put your things between moves or housing renovations, you might think that renting a self-storage unit is just another expense. It's true that you have to spend money on your self-storage unit (it is a rental, not a borrowed space), but it is better to think of this rental as an investment rather than as an expense. Investments cost money initially, but they pay off down the line. You might be wondering how renting a self storage unit now will pay off down the line. After all, can't you just sell your things to make a profit? You could, but when you come back to the Memphis area or you find a new home, you’ll find that you will need your items again? Selling and repurchasing belongings almost never costs less than simply keeping them in the first place. Time is Money It's true. The time you spend finding a buyer for your items is time you could have spent on more profitable ventures. The same is true of the time you would spend later searching for furniture to re-purchase and the money you would spend to do so. When you choose a self storage unit, you save time. When you save time, you save money. Self-Storage is Cheaper Than Commercial Storage If you own a small business, you might have inventory to move. Rather than spending money on warehouse space, keep your items in a self-storage unit. Although this is not a viable option for all business owners, it could be an option for you. Speak with a member of our friendly, attentive staff about the items you can store to determine if keeping your inventory in a US Storage Centers self-storage unit is an option for you.
