Summer sports offer you the perfect opportunity to fill your spend time, make new friends, expand your social circle, and ultimately turn any weekend getaway into a magnificent experience. At the same time, while some summer sports equipment and gear are lightweight and fairly easy to put away, others are bulky or extremely delicate and require special storage conditions. If you are thinking about renting storage units in Las Vegas to deposit bikes, golfing equipment, small boats and other accessories that you only get to use for a few months a year, here are three steps that you should take to make the best choice. Decide what items you’d like to store. Start by inventorying your storable goods. This will help you figure out how much space you need, and pick a unit based on its features, square footage and price. Local storage facilities usually provide two types of spaces: RV parking (1st floor) and air cooled (premium or economy) inside units. Select the type of room based on the particularities of the contents that you would like to store. Choose between Standard Storage and Climate-Controlled Storage. Assuming that you have decided to rent a spacious, modern, inside unit, should you opt for a standard one, or go in favor of a climate-controlled environment? If you’re planning on protecting belongings made of wood, metal or delicate fabrics such as satin, brocade, tissue or crepe, note that it would be best to keep these items in a climate-controlled environment that maintains the indoor temperature in the 55°F-85°F range to prevent any damages caused by humidity or extreme heat or cold. Select the Best Storage Method. Next, figure out how you could use every inch of space to store summer sports equipment and other household contents, if needed. When it comes to depositing sports equipment, there are several strategies that you could employ. For instance, you could keep summer essentials out of sight in a closet, or organize them in a built-in storage unit addition that you could create using a network of bins, shelves and hooks. To simplify your storage efforts, you could simply add shelves to your storage unit. Put your gear and equipment in clear, labeled bins and place these containers on your shelves. As an alternative to this basic storage method, you could also explore the benefits of a DIY sliding storage system that you could add to the ceiling of your unit. Using wood and PVC pipes, you could design and install your own on-the-ceiling, space-saving storage solution that could help you organize and keep fishing rods up top.
