Why do Tumwater and Olympia residents use self storage?

Tumwater sits at the southern end of the Puget Sound region along I-5, directly bordering Olympia, Washington's state capital. The area's households move often — state-government hiring cycles, Joint Base Lewis-McChord relocations up the I-5 corridor, and students at The Evergreen State College all create bridge periods where storage carries a household between homes. Add the South Sound's long rainy season from roughly October through May, and ground-level drive-up access — load under your own liftgate, steps from your vehicle — becomes the most practical way to store in Thurston County.
