Valentine’s Day: Storage – An Unusual Present

Valentine’s Day: Storage – An Unusual Present

We’re all feeling the pinch right now. So the pressure to do something special is even more pressing than usual.

And we’re suggesting storage as a fabulous gift for Valentine’s Day for your partner or yourself.

It’s not as mad as it sounds                            

Here are five ways to make it part of the best gift ever:

1.       Decluttering

A good declutter can change your life, leaving you clearer space and even, perhaps, a little better off (Watch this blog for more on selling your second hand items.) So why not give your loved one or gift yourself a hand made voucher book with some hours of specific help to declutter, and some storage space to put the things he or she or you wants to keep but doesn’t really have space for? Thoughtful gift!

2.       Redecorating

You can’t afford to upgrade top a bigger property, but want more space/an upgrade.

A month or two of storage while you redecorate together will get the job done faster, things won’t get damaged or covered in paint splashes – that could be the next best thing to moving a new home.

3.       Reform or Renovate their home

Maybe there’s a wall they or you have always wanted knocked through. Maybe the bedrooms begging for an ensuite. Maybe the dream is an extension.

There’s no easier way to make it happen than to book some storage and finalise the plans on Valentine’s Day!

4.       Plan a holiday

Time to start saving and planning, but why not buy a map of the World, a journal and wrap them up? And while you’re gone, storage is one of the easiest parts of the logistics to help sort out your things while you’re away. If you need planning tips for your holiday, we also have those too - just click here.

5.       Help them become a Lifestyle Storer

We often talk about ‘lifestyle storers’ here at easyStorage – people who use storage to keep their lives in order on a month to month basis, whilst keeping their homes decluttered and clear.

Mostly they arrange for a changeover of goods once a month, meaning that the right things go into and out of storage for the season.

And because easyStorage comes in at around half the price of traditional self storage, and both delivers and collects, it really is the gift that keeps on giving. They’ll thank you all year, not just on Valentine’s Day.

What will storage cost?

We believe you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

5 Tips in Creating a Workspace in Your Small Apartment

Dedicating a workspace or a home office should be equally valuable as any part of your apartment whether this is for a remote job or line of work is something that can be done at the comfort of your own home. More often than not, we tend to put this last on our list as sometimes we resort to our bedroom or living room as our go-to workspace. But hey, who doesn’t want working at the comfort of your bed with your PJs on while reviewing your business report? Think again. According to Harvard Business Review’s Guide to Being More Productive, “Unless you are careful to maintain boundaries, you may start to feel like you’re always at work and losing a place to come home to.” Working and sleeping in the same area is not a good idea as you tend to lose your work-life balance, which eventually will lead you to stress and being burnt out from work and feels like you don’t have a life anymore.

How to Keep Your Seasonal Clothes in a Self-Storage Properly

There’s a long list of items that can be kept in a self-storage which made this industry the most cost-effective storage solution there is and your seasonal clothing is just one of them. Clothes come in different sizes and materials and some of them can be sensitive to the changing climate that may cause damage. Let’s admit that not all of us have been blessed with enough space in our closets to store clothes that are not yet in time to be worn. We can free up more space in our closets and avoid looking it disorganised through finding available storage solutions around us. Self-storage can provide you more than just the space you need. You thought you might be throwing money on something that isn't a necessity but self-storage can maintain the quality of your seasonal clothes, protect them against any temperature-related damages, and more importantly, achieve a peaceful and stress-free living with an organised closet.
