November Jobs for Lifestyle Storers

November. Darker nights and Christmas racing towards us at full speed. Whether you’re a stalwart partygoer or staying in by the fire, whether you’re a ‘Christmas starts early in our house’ or a ‘Christmas starts a week before and ends before New Year’, here are a few helpful nudges for our ‘Lifestyle Storers’ regarding what might go into and out of storage this month.

We can no longer hide from it. Despite the fact that we’re all feeling the pinch, the stores are all full of goodies and Christmas is upon us!

‍

Christmas preparations: Decluttering to make room

Lifestyle storers will want a massive declutter and move out one or two things into storage to make space for Christmas decorations and Christmas guests.

Some of our previous blog posts may help inspire you with the decluttering:

· Ten tips on the way to Decluttering Nirvana (with a hat tip to Marie Kondo, of course)

· Home decluttering ideas

· Swedish Death Cleaning (A lot less gruesome than the name implies!)

With all of us feeling the pinch, keep an eye out on our blog for some tips on which sites are out there to sell on your preloved things that you are not putting into storage.

Christmas preparations: Decorations

And of course, the end of the month is time for many to get out their Christmas decorations, test the fairy lights’ bulbs, dust down the tinsel, wipe over the table decorations and generally prepare. (Some prefer to wait until two weeks before Christmas to put up those decorations – your Christmas, your choice!)

Of course, if you’re simply pragmatic about things and want to limit yourself to one storage run only this month, you may prefer to wait until your Black Friday goodies have arrived. (Yes, that annual money saving ‘spendfest’ is upon us on Friday November 25.)

Why consider a small space rather than the big ones?

With everything becoming expensive nowadays, it is very important to become more resourceful, efficient, and practical, especially with your spending attitude. We don’t want to end up being tied up in debts just to keep with our wants over our needs. A shelter (house, studio, apartment, etc.), for example, is considered as a need for a person to survive. It’s only fair that we spend a chunk of our budget on it but it doesn’t mean we should get spaces that are beyond our budget capability. There are lots of available "small" spaces that are within our budget and can still sustain our need for shelter. We only have to be creative in maximising these spaces. Discover the gems hidden in living in small spaces.
