Maximize Your Space: Things You Can Store in a Self-Storage Unit

At A Place For Space, we understand that life can get cluttered, and sometimes you need a little extra space to keep things organized. Our self-storage units offer a convenient, safe, and affordable solution to help you store almost anything you need, from seasonal items to household belongings. Here’s a list of items you can safely store in a storage unit:

1. Furniture

If you're downsizing, moving, or renovating, storing furniture in a climate-controlled storage unit is a great way to keep your space clear while protecting your belongings. Sofas, tables, chairs, and even large appliances like refrigerators or washing machines can be stored until you're ready to use them again.

2. Seasonal Items

Seasonal decorations, outdoor furniture, or sporting equipment that you only use part of the year can take up valuable space in your home. Storing these items in a self-storage unit allows you to free up space while keeping them easily accessible when you need them.

3. Clothing and Seasonal Gear

Winter coats, summer clothes, and other seasonal clothing can easily crowd your closet. A storage unit is perfect for keeping seasonal wardrobes organized and your home tidy.

4. Business Inventory and Documents

For small businesses, a storage unit offers a convenient place to store excess inventory, paperwork, or office supplies that are not in daily use. Keep your office organized and your business running smoothly with a secure storage solution.

5. Personal Items & Family Heirlooms

Precious keepsakes, antiques, and sentimental items may not fit in your everyday living space but are too important to get rid of. Our storage units provide a safe environment for storing valuable personal items, ensuring they stay protected and preserved for years to come.

6. Tools and Equipment

For those with hobbies or small businesses, storage units are ideal for storing tools, machinery, or equipment that you don’t use every day but still need to keep in good condition.

At A Place For Space, we offer a variety of unit sizes to fit your needs, as well as flexible rental terms. Whether you're looking to store a few boxes or need an entire unit for furniture or equipment, we’ve got you covered. Trust us to keep your belongings safe and accessible when you need them most! Rent a unit today at one of our 5 locations throughout the Rockford area!
