Benefits of Using Self Storage when Downsizing

There are many benefits of using self storage when downsizing. Whether you are downsizing to save money, devote less time to house upkeep, and more time to activities you enjoy, or because your children have flown the nest, we have a self storage solution for you.

Using self storage when downsizing can help to make this transition easier. Here are some ways Currie Easy Self Storage can help you.

Using Self Storage when Downsizing Provides Flexibility

Flexibility is one of the key benefits of using self storage when downsizing. Not quite found your dream home? Using self storage can help you to move temporarily to a smaller home to save you money until you find the perfect place. Keeping all of your belongings in a self storage unit will not only speed up your next move but also give you time to go through all of your belongings at a later date that suits you.

Whether you require short-term self storage or long-term self storage, Currie Easy Self Storage has a solution for you.

An Effortless Transition

Downsizing can be a stressful time, especially when moving into a more compact residence. Utilising self storage solutions can help to make this transitional period as easy for you as possible because instead of trying to move all of your belongings at once, you can begin to move non-essential or seasonal items into your storage unit. 

Take some of the stress of moving away and ensure a seamless transition by having somewhere safe and secure to keep your belongings until you’re ready to utilise them again.

A Permanent Solution for Your Seasonal Belongings

When downsizing, you might be changing climates or just looking for some extra space to store those seasonal items. This might include:

• Outdoor furniture such as BBQs, tables, chairs, lawnmowers, etc.
• Seasonal clothes you don’t require throughout the year such as winter coats, swimwear etc.
• Christmas decorations such as Christmas trees, lights, baubles, etc.
• Sports equipment such as bicycles, skis, surfboards, etc.

This is a practical solution when moving from a larger space to a more compact area as it not only saves you space but it helps to keep all of your items in good condition until they are ready to be used again.

Protect Your Sentimental Items

Downsizing usually comes with making some difficult decisions about what to keep and what not to keep. If you are not yet ready to part with that childhood dollhouse or your favourite vase, then why not provide them with a temporary home in a self storage unit?

Sentimental items deserve to be protected. All of our storage units have 24-hour security and CCTV in place to ensure your items are safe at all times.

Save Time When You Use Self Storage for Downsizing

Save time when you are downsizing by moving just the essentials to your new home and storing the rest of your belongings in a self storage unit until you have time to sort through them at your own pace.

Downsizing can be a very busy and stressful time so avoid having multiple trips back and forth or being left with a heap of boxes to sort through when you have just moved in by utilising self storage.

Self Storage Helps Both You and Your Family

As well as helping to make your life easier, one of the benefits of using self storage when downsizing is passing down furniture and homeware to help your family in the future.

Perhaps your child has bought their first home and needs that spare bed. Your belongings will stay safe and secure until they can find a new home with your loved ones.

Downsizing your Business?

We understand that many businesses may have a change in circumstances and may also need to downsize from time to time. Currie Easy Self Storage offers cost-effective business and commercial storage solutions. 

Perhaps you require a bit of extra space to store those unused office tables and chairs or maybe you have lots of paperwork you need to keep safe and secure to free up some extra room in your office. You can also downsize any time if you no longer need as much space without being tied into lengthy leases and contracts. 

We can help your business store the equipment and inventory you might not require daily. Ensuring your business downsize runs as smoothly and efficiently as possible.
