Moving into your new home can be an exciting, yet intimidating experience for many reasons, with more than 57% of Brits rank moving into a new home as one of life’s most stressful events.
Taking your first step on the property ladder involves a lot of prior planning, with things like saving up a deposit and getting new furniture being key elements. With so much to consider, storage space (or lack of it) can prove to be a concern.
At Self Stor, we can help to ease this concern. Our versatile and cost-effective self-storage solutions come in various sizes to fit your needs. Whether you need a smaller unit for just a few boxes, or a larger unit for a full suite of furniture, there is a storage solution for you at Self Stor.
For first-time buyers, self-storage units are ideal, and making use of them can offer a number of benefits, including:
Extra Space
Having a large amount of storage space is always useful – especially when moving into a new house for the first time.
In the lead-up to your big move day, you may find that you have collected a range of items from furniture to cutlery. A secure storage unit allows you to store items ready to move, without cluttering up your current space.
It is likely that once you’ve moved in, you’ll want to make the space your own as soon as possible. When decorating or remodelling your new home, self-storage can be extremely useful. If your new home is packed with boxes and furniture, it can be difficult to have the room to make any improvements and also risks damage to your possessions.
Having everything stored away in a secure storage unit provides a clearer and safer space that allows you to focus on decorating or renovating your new home.
Don’t forget you can treat a smaller 40sq ft unit like a spare room, giving you a little extra space when you need it most. Bigger units like our 160sq ft unit are ideal for storing even more items, such as larger pieces of furniture.
Convenience
Secure storage units are a flexible and convenient place to store your belongings when timelines for moving don’t quite work out. While you wait for everything to be ready, secure self-storage can be a lifesaver, meaning that you won’t have to worry about finding somewhere where you live now to store your items.
With Self Stor, you have the option to rent out secure self-storage units on a short or long-term basis, depending on how long you would like to store your belongings. This flexibility means you don’t need to worry if you need to extend how long you need your unit to match the timeframe of moving into your new home.
Since our secure storage units vary in size, you have the added convenience of finding an exact unit to match your needs, helping you to prepare for your move.
Security
During your move, valuable and fragile items are at greater risk of getting damaged, lost, or even stolen. For a stress-free move, you will want to be certain that your possessions are kept safe and secure. This is the case when your items are in transit and also when they are being stored.
A self-storage unit gives you a secure place to store your belongings throughout the move into your first home to ensure their safety. With a self-storage unit from Self Stor, you have the extra peace of mind that your items are protected by a high-tech security system, automatic electric gate controls, as well as 24/7 CCTV coverage. You even receive a free high-security padlock for further protection.
