Unpopular opinion: Storage units should only be used as short term solutions. If it is not worth it having those things in the house, it is not worth paying to be storaged.

Self storage for long periods of time mean they go from a "once a year accessed" item to "I never look at it again" item.

Totally agree but I keep seeing new storage buildings going up all around...like, do we all really have that much of a need to keep building them? Of course, cluttered garages that can't hold cars is also a pet peeve. I hate clutter and junk!

I don't understand the need of a storage outside of the house if you have an attic. What stuff do you have that you don't need that much in few years but is so important to keep? I think the storage units are for someone who has a tiny apartament or is moving for couple of years.

I had a separate storage unit for over 18+ years, saving heirlooms and just realized how much $$$ I’ve spent over all these years. After a recent conversation with my adult Child, there is NO interest! Now I’m trying to find avenues of parting with the “possible”antiques. Other tips did help though & motivated me.

I really like watching people organized and/or declutter. I also believe self storage is right for some people/certain situations. That being said, I do respectively disagree with you in putting your sentimental items into self storage. I personally believe that unless you have collectibles that you are saving specifically for their collection value, that your sentimental value items should find a place in your life, even if it is only taken out once a year or so. But usually items in storage get forgotten and also often, our children/family don’t want these types of items unless they can attach a memory to them (ie looking at them with their family). Again, this is just my opinion, maybe yours is different. That being said, I do think self storage has its place, but I think it is important that your items go there never to be seen again.

I find taking a picture of a sentimental item works just as well as keeping the actual thing. Just take a picture of that white lantern and let it go. When I see a childhood photo of mine wearing something I don’t own any longer it brings back the same memories as holding it in my hand would. This little trick has been working for me for years

Word of advice, if you are storing anything important to you that is not replaceable such as photos, at a storage facility, store them in a fire and waterproof container. A. couple of weeks ago a storage facility near my house caught fire and 11 units were completely destroyed (everything in the units were in plastic totes or cardboard boxes).

@JustGG19563 жыл бұрын
SENTIMENTAL ITEMS TIP There are items we will NEVER use but they bring certain memories or mark a particular event in our lives. Space is valuable in every home. Consider taking pictures of these special items and keeping them in an album where you can view them any time you desire. You will probably see them more often this way instead of under some pile some where. The take the item to a proper place. Given to someone who needs, donated, and yes, we have to face reality, some of those special things we save should be thrown out. Take a picture and remove it from your valuable space.

I'm actually doing my attic today. It's not as full as urs I don't have big baby stuff it's just lots of cool toys I love that's belonging to my son and over the years I've dealth lt with it bit by bit and had flooring put down to move around easier. The clear out I did 4 yrs ago was for that very reason so now it's time for the propper clear out to begin. I've got 3 large tubs and that's all I want. Stuff I'm keeping for my son in one tub 2nd tub for my stuff and the 3rd tub probably a box of old photo's that's it. I'm clamping down on what's not really really needed. Have a great day everybody. Oh and it's extremely windy today as we have gale force winds to its gonna be pretty chilly up there too bcause there's gaps at the end of the beams for ventilation reasons I guess. Wrap up 😁

Check this out, I used to live in my grandmother's attic, with my family. Mom, dad, and two older sisters. It was big enough for it to be separated into three small rooms, like big enough for two small dressers and a queen size bed in each. As we moved out, it became very cluttered up there. Like to the point we couldn't even go up there anymore. It was PACKED to the stairs. And down into the room with the attic access. It was bad in that house.... But I loved being there. It was my home. And I miss it terribly 😔 WAIT DID YOU JUST SAY A BAD WORD?!?! 😱🤯 LOL jk
