Packing your unit for a short amount of time

Storage units are perfect for long term storage. For example, putting a large unused instrument or family heirlooms away in a safe place. What must people forget about is that storage units can also be used for a short amount of time, like in the middle of a move. All sorts of situations can occur when moving from the new house not being ready, to an agreement being changed. Getting a San Mateo Self Storage unit can help you in these instances. 

Moves are unpredictable and can cause stress. Luckily getting a storage unit can alleviate some of that stress. A storage unit can hold any of your belongings that are packed and ready to go. Getting smaller items out of the way can help you clear out your home before beginning to get any bigger items out like furniture. 

A storage unit is also great if you are moving to a smaller home. It becomes a great place to store any items that will not fit in your new home. This could include furniture, electronics, clothes, and other items. Any extra items that will not fit can be stored and taken out any time you need them. 

If a move is sudden a storage unit can give you some leeway with your plans. If your home is sold but you can not move into the new one quite yet, a storage unit can safely hold everything until you are ready to move into your new home. Then you can keep your unit to continue to hold things that you will not need and store any seasonal items you do not want in your home. Get a unit that is close enough to your home that if you ever suddenly need anything stored it will be close and easily accessible.
