O.k, I’ll be honest with you: when I first started out in the storage industry I thought that paying for storage was a little silly, even a bit excessive. However, due to my own experiences, my viewpoint has changed. Let me explain…

I used to live in a two-bedroom home with another person, my boyfriend. We broke up soon thereafter, and I found myself squeezing all that I was able to into a moderate sized studio apartment. I packed the closets from top to bottom and utilized the space around the apartment as well as I could. I placed plastic bins under the bed- everywhere- I even built a table using 8 boxes covered with a tablecloth. This took up A LOT of extra space, causing me to stumble around and bump my elbows and hips on hard corners throughout my house!

I thought about how nice it would be to glide throughout my house easily locating the belongings that are daily necessities. So I finally came to terms with my glaring need for storage. Packing up the stuff that I wanted to keep, but didn’t actually need at my apartment to put into storage was simply freeing. I felt like a huge burden had been lifted off of my shoulders as I lightened my load into a secure, fresh smelling storage unit. I am now a believer. My life is more structured with the excess gone and I no longer hit my funny bone on corners!
