And while some things are easy to store around the house, and everybody knows where to find them, you might find that other items are more difficult to place, perhaps because they are eyesores or are very large. For these, renting a unit in a self storage facility can be a good option.<\/p>\n<p>You might be part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/amid-covid-pandemic-housing-boom-demand-for-small-spaces-grows-too-11611311402\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">increasing trend for living in a smaller home<\/a>, which could be a boxy tenement apartment or a perhaps a loft conversion with awkward interior angles. Or you could be a resident in a rowhouse, but the typically compact design can result in a lack of spare storage space, especially if your household is large. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/blog\/how-to-organize-a-small-kitchen-in-8-easy-steps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kitchens<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/blog\/storage-for-small-bedrooms\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bedrooms<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/blog\/the-ultimate-guide-to-well-organized-homes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">less obvious areas<\/a> can be organized to maximize storage space, keeping the look of the home the way you want it. But some objects are bulky, awkwardly shaped, or simply look unattractive or inappropriate in your home. And then there is the problem of having access to personal transportation when you may not have any outside space. We look at 10 such types of items for which, if you don\u2019t have a roomy attic or a garage handy, a self storage unit can be a good option.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bicycles promote health, but you might want more than one!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-wp-editing=\"1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-5576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2021\/04\/bike-on-apartment-wall.jpg\" alt=\"bike on apartment wall\" width=\"220\" height=\"312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2021\/04\/bike-on-apartment-wall.jpg 666w, https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2021\/04\/bike-on-apartment-wall.jpg?resize=212,300 212w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 220px) 100vw, 220px\" \/>Bicycling is an increasing popular hobby in the US, with possibilities for both nimble commuting in town and rougher riding in the countryside. Different sorts of bikes are usually used for these two activities and then there are those made specially for racing, and some models can be very expensive. If you live in a small apartment, you may be able to hang one bike on the wall near the entrance door \u2014 leaving it in the hallway might be risky \u2014 but they are an awkward shape and several would easily take up valuable living space. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/storage-unit-size-guide\/5x10-storage-unit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">5\u2019x5\u2019 storage unit<\/a> may be large enough for an enthusiast with bicycles, if the wheels are removed first.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Motorcycles need and deserve good storage<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What is true for bicycles is doubly true for motorbikes. And while some riders might love their Harleys so much they could polish them every day, they will occupy space in a home \u2014 and don\u2019t even think about taking them up and down stairs! Without a garage, you can throw a motorcycle storage cover over your machine to keep out rain and snow, but this may not prevent harmful moisture and mold building up. Motorcycles need to be kept in the best possible working condition, and self storage comes to the rescue. As they are longer than bicycles and not easily disassembled, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/storage-unit-size-guide\/5x10-storage-unit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">10\u2019x5\u2019 unit<\/a> is the minimum size usually required.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cars\u2026 and their spare parts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you shun the cyclist lifestyle or the glamour of motorbike riding you will probably want a car. A tiny home, however, may have no garage or driveway, and leaving it on the street may be impossible, unsafe, or too expensive in terms of parking fees. Many self storage facilities provide low-cost outdoor parking spaces for vehicles, plus enclosed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/storage-unit-size-guide\/10x20-storage-unit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">10\u2019x20\u2019 units<\/a> that give extra protection. In addition, mechanics who work on their cars have a lot of (dirty) <a href=\"https:\/\/besttinycabins.com\/tag\/tiny-house-kits-under-10000\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">spare parts and tools<\/a> that cannot easily be accommodated in a small home. These can be kept in your storage unit \u2014 some operators even allow clients to work on their cars at their facilities, so ask around!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yardwork tools for preparing your outdoor space<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-5570\" src=\"https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2021\/04\/pressure-washer.jpg\" alt=\"pressure washing a garden deck\" width=\"350\" height=\"441\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2021\/04\/pressure-washer.jpg 402w, https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2021\/04\/pressure-washer.jpg?resize=238,300 238w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/>While a tiny home probably won\u2019t have a huge garden, it might have a yard. This could feature a patio or an area of decking, which you will want to clean before people come and sit there after the warm weather has arrived. The best way to clean a wooden outdoor floor is with an electric power washer. Some home-care experts also recommend using an orbit sander on the deck, especially just before periodically resealing the wood to prolong its life and looks. These pieces of equipment can be kept in the home or in a shed \u2014 though that would take up valuable yard space. Keeping them in your storage unit could be ideal as you need them so rarely.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bulk buying saves you money but doesn\u2019t need to crowd your space<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We all know the advantages of buying in bulk to save a few bucks. And during these times when hygiene and social distancing have been priorities, making fewer trips to the shops is a good plan. One of the most commonly bulk-purchased items is toilet paper, which can take up a lot of space, and, let\u2019s face it, doesn\u2019t look great stacked up in your living area! Much better to put it in a storage unit if space at home cannot be found out of sight. Other items often bulk-bought include tins of food, perhaps for pets \u2014 some storage facilities accept these, especially if climate-control is used to ensure heat won\u2019t rupture them \u2014 but dried foods are usually prohibited.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Windsurfing boards just don\u2019t look right in a home!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-5571\" src=\"https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2021\/04\/surf-board.jpg\" alt=\"surf board in a bedroom\" width=\"300\" height=\"372\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2021\/04\/surf-board.jpg 413w, https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2021\/04\/surf-board.jpg?resize=242,300 242w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>How many garages have you seen with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentcafe.com\/blog\/self-storage\/top-10-us-surfing-destinations-how-self-storage-helps-enthusiasts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">surfboards<\/a> attached to the ceiling? They are not ruining the look of that place too much, but what do you do if you don\u2019t have a garage? Windsurfing boards can be 10\u2019 or more in length and surfboards may be only a couple of feet shorter. If you&#8217;re an apartment dweller who loves the ocean waves, you may not have any other place to keep their boards \u2014 and they don\u2019t look right stood up next to bookcases or wardrobes of your best clothes! Self storage units are usually 8\u2019 high, so boards can easily be put in there, at a diagonal if necessary, and picked up on the way to the beach.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Carpets and rugs need a change for summer<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>People often lay carpets and rugs when they first decorate their home and then forget about them. A standard carpet roll with a width of 12 feet is too high to be stacked upright in most homes \u2014 and can you imagine where it could lie horizontally without getting in the way? Large carpets may stay put all year round, but you may want to swap out smaller ones and rugs for the summer. This could be because their cozy look and feel doesn\u2019t suit the brighter months or because more dirt is now being brought into the house. If a place cannot be found to store them in the home, your storage unit will no doubt welcome them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Party equipment: keep it out of the way for next time around<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-wp-editing=\"1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-5572\" src=\"https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2021\/04\/cotton-candy.jpg\" alt=\"cotton candy maker\" width=\"320\" height=\"395\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2021\/04\/cotton-candy.jpg 415w, https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2021\/04\/cotton-candy.jpg?resize=243,300 243w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/>A cotton candy maker is a wonderful treat at a children\u2019s party, but they are quite bulky, and you might have trouble finding suitable space in a kitchen cupboard \u2014 and it won\u2019t be coming out of there very often! Add to this the extra crockery, chairs and toys you might keep for occasional big parties \u2014 and maybe even a chocolate fountain or an electric fondue pot \u2014 and you can see that putting all the party gear in your storage unit makes sense. Themed parties often require a lot of extra stuff, and the fancy dress clothes can also be put in the unit, with care, until you or somebody you know holds another party with the same theme.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Artworks: don\u2019t let lack of space at home inhibit you<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re not all blessed with great talent, but everybody should try creating art at least once in their life \u2014 despite how embarrassing the results can be! Painting is easily done in a small home, with perhaps a bowl of fruit or a loved one as the subject matter. However, the finished works build up quickly over time and you might be reluctant to get rid of them \u2014 Picasso, after all, didn\u2019t even throw his doodles away, and they\u2019re worth some money now! They can be stacked up in a (climate-controlled) storage unit until you decide whether to paint over them or offer them to MoMA. Sculptures, of course, are even more difficult to store (and to make) in a tiny home.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stuffed animals: don\u2019t have nightmares!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-wp-editing=\"1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-5573\" src=\"https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2021\/04\/deer-head.jpg\" alt=\"deer's head on a wall\" width=\"210\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2021\/04\/deer-head.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.storagecafe.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2021\/04\/deer-head.jpg?resize=210,300 210w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 210px) 100vw, 210px\" \/>Not everyone goes hunting, but if you do and you bagged a mule deer buck with a full set of antlers, you might want to put its head on a wall as a trophy. However, this look doesn\u2019t usually suit a small apartment, and even if passersby don\u2019t actually snag their clothes on it, you\u2019d have difficulty matching it with the place\u2019s other d\u00e9cor. Even having your taxidermized childhood pets around the place could be unwise \u2014 they might just give your next potential boyfriend\/girlfriend the shudders! Instead, they can be kept on shelves in a storage unit, which is climate-controlled to provide damage from humidity, and taken down and dusted when you visit.<\/p>\n<p>Many items which seem hard to place in a home can be put in self storage facilities. All types of vehicles, and the parts and tools associated with them, can be kept there. For things that are needed regularly, a facility close to home, perhaps within walking distance, is recommended. But some items needed for the smooth running of a house are required only once a year, and holiday gear is not required during most seasons, so a good-value facility situated a drive away may well be sufficient. While it might not make sense to rent a locker just to store these items, or for things that are bought in bulk, they can be put into an existing unit and savings will be made. Finally, you might be considering embarking on a new creative hobby, and a storage unit certainly helps keep things that are important to you but which not everybody wants to see around the home!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many people find themselves short of space at home, particularly if they share it with family or have had to downsize.
