Coffee. Food. Prized collections of rare spoons. When you really think about it, we use a form of portable storage for several things in life. But this doesn’t have to be exclusive to small items. After all, portable storage containers can hold the contents of a typical 1,500-square-foot-home!
Whether you want flexibility with unloading personal items while moving or you need some extra assistance during contract work, there are several reasons why portable storage containers are getting more and more popular these days. Here are five of them:
1. Moving/Relocation
This is the primary reason people use portable storage containers. They make moving or relocating your home or business easier than ever. Simply give the storage company a call — like SAM (Store & Move) — and they’ll drop off the container(s) at the location of your choice. Load the container at your convenience, give the company a call again and they’ll deliver it to the destination of your choice. These containers are designed with moving in mind and feature smooth interior walls, tie-down rings, translucent roofs and other smart features. DIY moving doesn’t get any easier than this.
2. Decluttering
Whether it’s your household or business, clutter can become a problem. A portable storage container can help you declutter easier by giving you a space to put all of the clutter while you figure out a way to organize it. This is a great time to consider whether there are any items you want to sell, donate or throw away. Either way, you can use the container as long as you like, so you can declutter your home or business on your timetable.
3. Staging
Perhaps you’re getting ready to sell your home? You don’t want to hide its features or have it appear messy with your extra belongings. This is another reason why people use portable storage containers. By cleaning up your home for staging, you’ll increase the likelihood that it will sell and potentially increase the sale price. Whether it’s your own home, a home you rent out or a home you represent as an agent, using portable storage containers for staging can pay nice dividends.
4. Contracting
Want to make your job easier? Consider portable storage containers for contractors. We can store your valuable tools and equipment between your jobs. Once you’ve finished one of your projects, give us a call and we will store your equipment/materials in our container and deliver it to your next worksite.
5. Storage
Whether you’re remodeling your home, restoring it or could simply use some extra storage, portable storage containers can come in handy for a variety of other reasons. One of the great features about these containers — at companies like SAM (Store & Move), at least — is that they can be stored in a state-of-the-art storage facility with a 24-hour alarm system and fire sprinkler system. You can trust that your belongings will be safe and out of your way, regardless of your reason for storing them.
