Anyone who says relocating is not stressful has never had to pack their own belongings and move them. On top of all of that work, there are times when moving timelines just don’t work out as we plan, leaving us in a jam. What do you do when you find out your new place will not be ready for you to move in before you have to get out of your current home? What do you do if you can only take so many of your belongings to your new place – and that amount of stuff is nowhere near the amount you currently have? Everyone deals with a different experience each and every time they move. Many situations are difficult, but that doesn’t mean we don’t make it through it. Often, a Laguna Hills storage unit is the answer to many circumstances that come up. US Storage Centers is your moving ally – we love to provide you with handy hacks and tips to make your moving experience easier and cheaper. And we are also here if you need additional storage space whenever you decide you need it. Here are some of the ways you can use a Laguna Hills storage unit when you are moving: Storing Some or All of Your Belongings Realtors often suggest that people who are selling their homes get storage units. This is because you want to “stage” your home for the sale, and the better you stage your home, the more likely you will get the asking price faster. To do this, you must have a minimal amount of furniture and belongings in your home, which means everything else has to be moved out – typically to a storage unit. The good thing about this is that you are nearly packed up once your house is sold. The downside is that you might sell your home before you have a new home. That’s not always a problem, however, because you can just pack the rest of your stuff into your storage unit and move into a new place when you find one. This situation can also arise when people are between leases. In most situations, a 10x20 or 10x30 unit will be large enough to store everything that you own, but you can always check with your Laguna Hills storage unit facility to find out what size unit they recommend. If you want to get ahead of your moving day, you can pack and store some of your items in a smaller storage unit, like a 5x10 or a 10x10. That way, you can unpack it whenever you want to and won’t be in a rush to unpack on the other end. Storing a Vehicle Moving across the country often means that you have to get not only a moving truck, but also your vehicle or vehicles across the country, too. Maybe you only have time immediately to drive the moving truck across the country, and then go back and get one of your vehicles and drive that across the country. What about the other vehicle? Just store it until you have time to get back to it and drive it across the country.
