Mentally preparing yourself for the move to a smaller space can be anxious and stressful. Focus on the positives: Smaller homes are easier to maintain and keep clean, which means less time and money spent on the house. Of course, one of the most common questions and concerns about down-sizing is: “Where will you store all our stuff?” UNITS® Moving and Portable Storage of Charlotte is here to help! Here are a few options and angles for those looking to purge some of their belongings before a move to a smaller home.
The very first downsizing storage solution is going through all your stuff and making lists of what to keep, sell or give away. Be honest when doing this inventory — don’t hold back! If there are too many clothes, shoes, accessories or other things you don’t love any more — get rid of them!
Before downsizing, it is important to think about furniture. Do you really need all of it? If downsizing is due to the fact that your kids have grown up and you don’t need all the extra space, then a solution may include getting rid of unnecessary furniture. You can always buy new things for your new place – but think about purging right now!
It’s certainly possible to add more storage to your new home or apartment. Storage options include under bed boxes/drawers, hanging baskets and racks, any furniture with built-in storage, wall mounted shelves and, of course, the classic storage bin. If a storage unit is what you need then look no further than UNITS® Moving and Portable Storage of Charlotte. We offer portable storage containers to facilitate your move and, if necessary, a storage facility that can hold your belongings for as long as you need.
