Single parent households are common in Arizona. Of all households in the state, 36.4 percent have single parents. In Chandler, there are 62,377 households in which 41 percent had children under the age of 18. More than 10 percent were single moms. Being married and raising children is hard enough, so as you can imagine, single parenthood is extremely demanding. Single parents often have nobody to turn to for help. They hardly ever get a break and often lead disorganized lives as they try to balance parenthood with a job. The good news is that the best self storage Chandler has to offer is available to help single moms and dads as they navigate through parenthood. During a Move After a divorce, a single parent may move out of the marital home and start a new life elsewhere with the kids in tow. A divorce is costly, so finances are often an issue. A single parent, fresh from divorce, may only be able to afford a small apartment until he or she can secure a new job. In the meantime, many larger possessions may need to go in storage for a period of time. For Dangerous Items In a divorce or after a spouse dies, you may be stuck with potentially dangerous items that you may not want around your kids. Household equipment such as lawnmowers, chainsaws, nails and hammers can also be dangerous. Maybe you have large toys, appliances, electronics and bulky items that you want away from young kids. You can put these things in storage until your child gets older or you find another place for the items. For Growing Families Depending on the age of your children, you may have toys, bottles, clothing, cribs, changing tables, dressers, walkers and sports equipment. If you plan on having more children in the future, you probably want to hold onto all these expensive items so you have them ready for your next child. Selling them doesn’t make sense, but a storage unit does. You can store these items in a unit to keep them safe for several years down the road. Paying for a storage unit gives you extra space at an affordable price. You get extra time to plan your future, and if you’re a single parent, extra time is hard to come by. Need More Space?
