No, your house hasn’t gotten smaller in the years since you moved in. You’ve just accumulated a lot more things. You use some of these things every day while others sit in storage until the one time each year they’re needed, which could be for a month, a few weeks, or even just one day. Chandler storage units are a great place to stash those items for the months between their uses. Lights, Trees, and Other Holiday Decor Can be Cumbersome A big part of holiday fun is decorating for each of these special days. The rest of the year, your lights, Christmas tree, plastic skeletons, boxes of ornaments, and banners and streamers can stay safe and clean in a self-storage unit. This is a great way to preserve holiday memories and traditions – when you’re in your storage unit picking up the decorations, you and your family know the holiday has officially begun. Self Storage Keeps your Cabinets Clear If you’re the one tasked with preparing Thanksgiving dinner, you probably have a lot of kitchen items that you only use once per year. Maybe you’re the kind of cook who deep fries your turkey or maybe you’ve got a centerpiece you break out each year for the big meal. These kinds of items and holiday-specific kitchen and dining room décor like placemats and salt and pepper shakers can spend their offseasons safe in self-storage. Consider using self-storage for your folding chairs and extra tables that come out for company when you’re serving holiday meals. Don’t forget about your 4th of July gear – whether it’s an extra charcoal grill, an outdoor furniture set, or your grilling utensils, keep them safe and ready for next summer’s barbecue in self-storage. Holiday Surprises Maybe you’re known around your neighborhood for your unique, scary Halloween display each year. Or maybe you don’t want your children accidentally (or purposely!) stumbling across their Christmas presents before the big day. This can also be a great strategy for keeping birthday and anniversary gifts away from their recipients until you’re ready to give them. If you’ve got holiday surprises you need to keep secret, a Chandler self-storage unit can be the shield you need. Secure Chandler Storage Units If you’re like most people, your storage needs change with the seasons. Rather than letting the Christmas tree you keep out for three of the year’s 52 weeks make your attic difficulty to move through or those Halloween decorations give you a heart attack every time you enter the garage, put them in Chandler storage units until you’re ready to use them.
