Storage Units
One in 10 Australians use a storage unit – and these figures are pretty consistent for our US listeners. Storage units can fill a gap, meet a need, and save you when you’re in a bind… but left unattended their cost can far outweigh the benefit.
Before you put things into storage, ask yourself some questions
– Does that value of this item justify spending thousands of dollars per year to store it?
– How will I feel about this item in 2-3 years when I’ve invested so much more money to keep it?
– Would I be better off donating these items and just repurchasing them in the future if I really need them?
Once you have a storage unit, see if these questions help you make the next right steps
– Could I consolidate my storage unit into a smaller space to save money?
– If I go through and declutter what I no longer need, could I save money by downsizing my storage unit or eliminate my need for it?
– What else could I do with the money I’m currently spending on storage?
