Having items that you infrequently use stored in one convenient place can help you alleviate clutter and the need for extra rooms in your home. You can ensure that your belongings are kept somewhere that is safe and easily accessible. The following are five popular items that are frequently kept in Phoenix storage units: Furnishings Are you tired of your existing or excess furniture, but unwilling to sell them at the low prices they frequently go for at yard sales? While home furnishings lose resale value quickly, their actual usefulness may last for decades. If you consider placing these types of items in a storage unit instead of getting rid of them, not only will your items be there in the event you should ever need them again, but you can rest assured they will be safely kept in a secure space while you are reducing the overall clutter of your home. Depending on the type of furnishings you own, some items may actually increase in value over time. Off-Season Clothing While Phoenix enjoys a general stable year-round climate, there are still times where items of apparel go in and out of season. These items usually end up using valuable space in your home or cluttering an attic or outdoor shed, all of which can result in staining and damage. Phoenix storage units are often the perfect solution, allowing you to store these types of items for your family conveniently in one place, with climate-controlled units to boot. These types of units can ensure that your fabrics are protected, and, when the time comes, you can switch out last season’s apparel quickly and with little hassle. Having all of your unused clothing in one place is a better alternative to digging through closets, drawers, and other places around your home to find the items you need. Sports and Recreational Equipment Phoenix provides endless opportunities for sports and recreational opportunities, both within and without the city. While golfing, boating, jet skiing, camping, hiking, and other recreational activities provide a great way to enjoy the outdoors with friends, keeping the associated gear these activities require can add to the clutter in and around your home, significantly reducing your livable space. Phoenix storage units are a great solution to this problem as they ensure that your sports and recreational equipment is kept safe and free from damage or theft, providing easy availability when you need it. Office Supplies While many of us maintain a home office type environment to attend to both personal and professional business matters, many others don’t have that type of space in their homes. A Phoenix storage unit can help solve this dilemma by allowing you to keep paperwork, filing cabinets, office machinery, office furniture, and even home-based business inventory materials together in one convenient spot. Whether you require a small unit to keep documents and files or need a larger space to store materials and merchandise you use infrequently, a storage unit not only can help your business run more smoothly, but the cost of renting a unit may even be tax deductible. Memorabilia We all have memorabilia that reminds us of days gone by with special people who are no longer with us. Maybe it is the first ball you ever caught at an Arizona Diamondbacks game, or the crib your now grown children used when they were babies. Some items can get lost easily while others can become damaged, and the space they take up in your home may tempt you to either sell or give these mementos away.
