Self storage facilities are also good for storing documents

When you have seasonal clothing such as coats and boots that are bulky and take up a lot of space, you can use self storage facilities to store these items during off season when they are not needed. With self storage facilities, you can determine a time frame that you need to store your items and then remove them when the rental time has ended. Most self storage facilities allow you to store these items for a period that is anywhere from a week to months at a time.

Self storage facilities are also good for storing documents, photos and other items that you would like to put into a safe place other than your home. This is an excellent idea when you may be having remodeling done to your home or you just want to be sure that your valuables are not exposed fire, flood or theft.

Self storage facilities often provide flexible access to your stored items, making them an excellent choice for storage. Unlike mini storage areas in apartments that require you to provide your own locks, many self storage facilities are locked ones and you are provided with a key to your unit. Self storage facilities are usually well organized by a numbering system that ensures that you never have to go hunting to find your storage unit.
