Raising children is a rewarding, yet challenging task. From infancy on, you can spend a small fortune providing all the toys, gear, and other equipment they need in order to thrive and grow. Some of these items are only used for a short time, while others become lasting keepsakes. In either situation, US Storage Centers can help preserve and protect your child’s belongings, so they can be used again in the future. Whether you have additional children in mind or are thinking of eventual grandchildren and you need self-storage, Denton has an option for you. Reducing the Cost of Raising Children According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), families spend an average of close to $13,000 each year caring and providing for their children. This averages to nearly a quarter of a million dollars in costs by the time they reach 18. Any parent will tell you about how expensive children’s gear is, and how they use it for only a limited time. They can be reused for future children or friends and family members, but storage can be a problem. Self-storage in Denton provides the perfect solution. We offer clean, secure units in a variety of sizes, to suit any need or budget. Drive-up access makes loading and unloading easier, while onsite management and video recording ensure your belongings stay safe. As an added benefit, climate control helps to prevent the damages that can so easily occur when storing these items in your garage, basement, or attic. Common types of children’s belongings kept at self-storage in Denton include: Children’s furniture, including cribs, changing tables, and junior sized beds; Baby items, such as walkers and high chairs; Stuffed animals, games, and other toys; Outgrown clothing and linens, such as baby blankets; Tricycles, scooters, and team sports equipment for older children.
