We all make new year’s resolutions. If yours is to have a tidier, more organised home, our storage units Sittingbourne are here to help. 

We have entered into another new year and there is that feeling in the air of people wanting to make changes. We can often be too harsh with ourselves when it comes to making resolutions and we often don’t feel like we can ask for help. 

If your resolution is to have a tidier, more organised home, we are here to offer you advice on how to do this in a calm way and let you know how our storage units Sittingbourne will help. 

Set Out A Plan

A good place to start when it comes to getting your home more organised is to start with a plan. When making your plan, you should think about where you want to start. It can be good to start in the area that requires more work. 

You could break it down into a timeline showing which rooms/areas you are going to do on certain days. But, please be realistic. Unless your home is already at a good level of organisation, you are not going to get your whole home tidied and organised in a single weekend. 

Try Out Some Decluttering Methods 

If you feel your home needs a declutter before you can get to the tidying and organising, there are many decluttering methods for you to try. 

There is the Konmari Method which was created by Marie Kondo. In this method, you go through all of your belongings, holding each one in your hand seeing if it sparks joy. Anything that doesn’t spark joy can be given or thrown away, depending on its condition. 

Next, there is The Four Box Method. With this method, you get four boxes and you label them – Keep, Give Away, Throw Away and Storage. Depending on how much stuff you think you have, it could be a good idea to have four boxes labeled in the same way for each room. Then, you just go through all of your belongings, a room at time, and you place them into the right boxes. We do recommend that you deal with the Give Away and Throw Away boxes as quickly as possible. Things have a habit of making their way out of boxes if they stay in your home for too long. 

Ask For Help

If you do have a lot to sort through, ask for help. This could come from your friends or family but there are also many professionals who will be able to help. 

Organising Services are a Sittingbourne based company who will help you with your decluttering and organising. If it is the cleaning and tidying that you need some help with, Stardust Cleaning Services will be a big help. 

Take Your Time 

It is really important that you allow yourself to take your time when it comes to getting your home organised. If you try to rush it, you either won’t do it properly or it will make you feel overwhelmed and you could even burn yourself out. It does not need to be done in a day or even a weekend. You could do it over a period of weeks/months, choosing to declutter one room each week. 

Remember To Have Breaks 

In a similar vein, it is also very important to take breaks. This could be stopping for an hour to have some lunch or it could be allowing yourself full weekends off to relax or to go and do fun things with your family and/or friends. 

You are doing this for you. There is no need for this to feel like an unyielding chore. Go at your own pace and take breaks as you go.

How Our Storage Units Sittingbourne Will Be Helpful 

Our storage units will be helpful and, here, we will let you know how. 

Safe Storage in Sittingbourne

There will be some items that you still want to hold on to but you don’t want cluttering up your home. This could be seasonal items or sentimental items. 

These could be stored in one of our units where they will be kept safe and secure. All of our units are fitted with an alarm and smoke and fire detectors. There is also 24/7 CCTV around the entire Sittingbourne facility. 

Ideal Storage Unit 

Our storage units in our Sittingbourne store range from 10 sq ft to 200 sq ft so we are certain we will have a storage unit that is perfect for your needs.

Flexible Rental Contracts

All of our units come with flexible rental contrasts. This means that if at any point you want to upsize or downsize your storage unit, you are free to do so. You just need to have a chat with the Sittingbourne team. 

If your storage needs change and you no longer need your unit, you are free to leave before the rental period has expired. We just need you to give us a short period of notice.  

5* Customer Service 

All of our Sittingbourne team will offer you 5* customer service. They are all very knowledgeable about self storage so they will be able to find you your perfect unit. And they will offer you a warm, friendly welcome each time you come into the store. 

This is what Brady Willshaw had to say about our Sittingbourne team:
