Tucson’s major employers draw talent from all over the country. Productive people have to move away from our fine city every day. Since moving out is a challenging ordeal for anyone here is one useful tip to make your move easier. How a Self-Storage Unit Can Make Moving Out Easier You just got the news; you start your new job in three months, in Florida. This is your second move in five years. You know what it is going to be like, except that you have five-years more stuff. You would rather undergo some form of medieval torture than this. If only moving out didn’t feel like a sudden forced exodus. It doesn’t have to. Here’s how. Rent a Tucson storage unit Our Tucson self storage facility on Freeway Boulevard should have just what you are looking for, depending on the size of your house. You can drive up to your unit with a large truck if you have to. It is easy to access and has 24-hour security. Start moving today We know, you actually have a little less than three months before you have to be on the road to your new home; so what’s the rush? That’s the point. Do you really want to rush things like last time? Remember, last time was like torture. This time it can be different. With your storage unit, you can move out slowly, one box at a time. Best of all the boxes won’t be under foot. When a box is packed and labeled, to the storage unit goes. So let’s start today. Buy boxes The first thing to do is to buy some boxes. Don’t use second-hand grocery store rejects that could fall apart. Buy different sizes, but don’t buy any that are too big, especially at first, since you will be loading up smaller boxes first. Pick boxes that can be sealed and easily marked up. Buy a box of Sharpie Pens for easy marking. We did say a BOX of pens so you aren’t always looking for THE Sharpie. Next buy two or three tape guns and several rolls of clear packing tape. Don’t buy cheap packing tape; discount brands won’t stick as well as 3M packing tape or the equivalent. Also buy plenty of tissue paper and packing peanuts. Begin loading up small items When we suggest loading up small items, we aren’t talking about anything that you need on a regular basis. You could start with your books that you are currently reading or referring to daily. This time when you are packing your curios or other small breakables, you can take your time and individually wrap each item in tissue paper and create a special box full of packing peanuts for these items. Make sure you label each box on the top and on all four sides for easy identification when it is stacked. What? You only packed three boxes today? That is great. You are well on your way. Keep going until the end Keep loading boxes every chance you get until you are down to your daily essentials. By the time the moving truck to shows up to your house, you can load it with all of your furniture, clothes, and the last of the kitchen before heading over to your storage unit and quickly loading up everything else. There wasn’t that easy. Visit our Tucson storage units at the address listed below: US Storage Centers 4115 E. Speedway Blvd. Tucson, AZ 85712 (520) 442-0010
