Make More Space In Your Home With Storage Near Bedford

We are all good at accumulating a lot of stuff. Our homes, lofts and garages are full of it. Using storage near Bedford will be like having an extra room in your home where all your excess stuff can be stored. Read on to find out more.

As we enter into a new year, we all get the urge to make some difference in our lives. If you live in a home with a lot of clutter, you might be filled with a need to have a sort out so you can make more space within your home.

A survey conducted by Hippo Waste found that 56% of British people have so much clutter that some rooms in their home are unusable. 41% of people said that the clutter made them feel stressed.

This is not surprising. Firstly, because perfectly good rooms are going to waste because of all the clutter. These could be beautiful rooms for people to stay in, a home office or a fun, entertainment room. Secondly, studies have proven that clutter is not good for us. It causes stress, anxiety, worsens physical conditions like asthma and hinders concentration and productivity.

Even though making space in your home can be really beneficial, it can be a daunting task. Within this article, we are going to look at how to get started with it and how storage will help.

aDo It A Room At A Time

Starting this type of task can feel really overwhelming so it is a really good idea to do it a room at a time, if you need to do your entire house. If you only have certain areas that need sorting, like your spare room or garage, then focus on these but maybe think about anything else that is taking up space in your home that you don’t really need all the time.

Declutter As You Go

As you go through the room/rooms, you are bound to find items that you no longer want or need. This should be packed up separately into boxes marked – Sell, Give Away and Throw Away.

All the items you want to sell could be brought to your storage until you have the time to sell them but all the Give Away and Throw Away items should be dealt with immediately so they don’t end up back in your house.

Pack And Label Everything

All the items that you want to keep within storage should be packed up and labelled. You could pack items by the room they have come from or from the type of items they are.

It is really important that you label each box so it is easier to locate any items you need in the future.

Choose The Right Storage Near Bedford

You need to make sure that you choose the right size storage unit. Too big will mean that you are wasting money. Too small and you run the risk of your belongings being damaged.

Once you know everything you need/want to store, bring it all together and measure it. This will give you some idea of the size of the storage unit you need. If you still aren’t sure, talk with the self storage team. Our Bedford team will easily find you your ideal unit.

Plan Ahead

When you are moving all of your belongings into your storage unit, you want to make sure that you organise it so the things you are most likely to need are near the front.

For example, if you are storing all your summer clothes in your storage unit because we are heading into the colder months, you want to be able to easily access these once spring rolls back around.

Planning ahead will save you a lot of time and hassle.
