If you have a situation where you need to store some extra items for the time being, self-storage can be a very affordable option; self-storage is cheaper than having to build extra space into your home if you don't have room to store extra items, and it's also a convenient solution if, for example, you have a business and you need to store extra inventory or important papers somewhere. Self-storage units can give the extra space you need without having to foot a hefty office or outbuilding rental bill every month, too.

First, figure out what you're going to be storing. If you need to, get supplies from the storage facility, including boxes, plastic, quilted coverings to protect large items like appliances and furniture, and so on. Label boxes clearly so that you can see what's in each; keep an itemized list of these labeled boxes at home.

However, if you are going to use a self-storage facility to store items you don't need right at the moment (or to store extra items such as inventory for your business), there are several things to keep in mind:

* The storage unit facility you choose should be close enough by your home or business to be convenient and easy to get to.

* The storage unit facility you choose should have readily available contact information so that management is easy to get hold of as necessary.



Getting ready to put things in self-storage



There are also some things you do to get items ready for self-storage. For one, they're going to need to be packed securely, so that there's no damage. The self-storage facility you choose may offer supplies like boxes, packing tape, and bubble wrap in addition to its storage facilities, for your convenience.



What type of self-storage unit should you choose?



Once you decide to put things in self-storage, decide whether or not you want a climate control unit or one that's not climate controlled. A climate controlled unit will cost you a little bit more than a non-climate controlled unit, but it will protect delicate items that are sensitive to changes in temperature much better than a non-climate controlled unit will; this makes it worth the extra expense. However, if the items you are storing are not going to be sensitive to changes in temperature, a non-climate controlled unit should suit your needs perfectly, and should cost you somewhat less than a climate-controlled unit.



Storing items carefully



Although storage units will certainly protect your items, packing them carefully and making sure they're stored properly will make things much easier for you. Make sure, for example, that you always have a path to walk through your storage unit so that you can access things easily. In addition, if you're going to be accessing certain things in your storage unit more often than others, such as important documents for your business, store these in an accessible place where you can get to them easily.



Other services storage unit companies may offer



If you've got a business, there may be times when you're not going to be available to get packages when they're delivered to your business. Some self-storage companies have as an extra service the option to have packages excepted on the storage site. One such company is Centron Self Storage (http://www.centronstorage.com/forbusiness.php); in addition, management is available to assist customers as needed.
