Summer is right around the corner, which not only means that before you know it, the kids will be out of school and running around the yard with bats, balls, and scraped knees galore. It also means that as the school year winds down and the temperatures pick up, the time to start thinking about what you will put into your Tampa storage unit - and take out of it - for the approaching summer season is now. Things to Put in Your Tampa Storage Unit for the Summer Since the kids will be out of school, there is no use cluttering the house will the numerous school items that kids use in and out of the classroom. Some items to put in storage for the summer, with plans to use again in the fall, include: Folders, unused notebooks, school pens and pencils; Backpacks and school bags; School clothes (let them dirty their summer clothes, not their nice ones); Textbooks; and Worn Halloween costumes, school dance dresses, and other similar items. While you should put school-time specific items in storage, don’t forget to leave out some art supplies, pencils, notebooks, and books (but maybe not the boring textbooks!) to encourage your kids to read and continue enhancing their creativity and learning skills even when there is no teacher around. Things to Take Out of Your Tampa Personal Storage Unit for the Summer Before you put the above items in, make some room in your personal storage unit by taking some other things out. Some great things to have on hand for the summertime in Tampa include: Sports equipment, including balls of all types, mitts, bats, rackets, nets, and the like; Inflatable/blow up pools; Water toys; Bicycle, scooters, and skateboards (and helmets!); Sleeping bags and tents; and Other family-fun items that you and your kids love during the summertime. If you have packed summer clothes away for the school year, get them out now too and throw them in the wash before wearing.
