How Grandparents can benefit from cheap self storage

Imagine the delight on your yet-to-be-born grandchildren’s faces when they open your self storage unit and find an Aladdin’s cave of treasures that you lovingly saved for them over the years.

How to declutter your home and delight the grandchildren

We all have far too much clutter in our homes. Think about your garage. In days gone by, people used to actually park their cars in them! It was a strange world. Our children may have left home, but you wouldn’t have thought so. Our garages are still full of kids’ bikes, old footballs, cricket bats, tennis rackets and tents.

And what about the loft space? A thousand books packed in cardboard boxes that haven’t seen the light of day for 40 years. Monopoly and other board games that remind us of Christmases past and – for those of us who have reached a certain age – the days of electricity cuts and no television. And everyone has boxes of Lego, don’t they? A timeless pastime that can still engage even today’s technology-obsessed kids.

Do we really want to throw away those hundreds of old family photographs just to make the place look tidy? Our grandchildren would never forgive us.

And how many times have we seen a toy on television or on the internet selling for a small fortune and declared: ‘I used to have one of those’?

So what’s the answer?

We can’t bring ourselves to throw away all those memories. That’s why more people are considering cost-effective self storage to solve the problem and preserve these treasured belongings for future generations while freeing up much needed space in our homes.
