Reasons to Organise Self Storage in Winter

Alan Storage from Kiwi Self Storage - North Shore

Self-storage units offer significant benefits to homeowners, and winter is an ideal time to store certain items away. As the days get shorter a decluttered home can feel lighter and more appealing.

Before reading on, if you have questions about getting the most from a storage unit, our teams at Kiwi Self Storage, are here to help.

To get you started, here are four reasons why you want to organise winter self-storage.

Reason One: You'll Make More Room

Is your garage always full, leaving no room to park the car? Are you worried about clutter and lack of floor space? Renting a self-storage unit can help free up extra space. You can store everything from excess summer sports equipment to outdoor furniture or items you don’t need daily. By using off-site storage, you’ll finally get the extra space in your home you’ve been wanting for ages.

Reason Two: Storing Equipment Frees Up Space

As cooler weather arrives, things in the garden slow down. You don't need to worry so much about lawn and garden maintenance. Items such as the lawnmower, hedge trimmer and other garden tools take up valuable space in the garage or shed. If you'd like more space to use for other things throughout the winter months, renting a storage unit is an easy and affordable way to create the additional space you need.

Reason Three: Preserving Outdoor Furniture Makes Sense

Winter weather can deteriorate exposed outdoor furniture and umbrellas. One day it may be sunny and warm, and the next it may be damp and cold. Severe weather fluctuations can affect your outdoor furniture, modern furniture in particular, especially if it is not covered. If you’ve invested in your outdoor furniture, you’ll want to keep it looking great for years to come.

Reason Four: Protecting Against New Zealand’s Damp Winter Conditions

New Zealand's winter can be particularly damp, which can lead to mold and mildew problems in homes. By using a self-storage if your home lacks climate control, you can protect your belongings from the effects of dampness. Items like clothing, books, and electronics can be safely stored without the risk of moisture damage, ensuring they remain in good condition throughout the winter months.
