Reclaim Your Garage!

January 8, 2014

It's a new year and time to get organized! Self-storage is a great way to clear out the clutter and make more space at home. Here are some tips to get started in the garage:

Start by taking everything out...and getting rid of trash as you go.
Sort everything into related piles
Designate piles such as "Give," "Storage Unit," and "Back to their home," or "Garage Sale"
Enlist the whole family and break up the work with some pizza or snacks! It's a great opportunity to create some family memories!

Bring over those seasonal items like lawnmowers, boating equipment, and other items you won't need until summer. Plan to swap them out in the summertime for the snowblower, ski equipment, and sleds. You'd be surprised at how much space you gain at home when you store your stuff with us at a great price!

Refer a friend and go home with cash in your pocket for that pizza party and garage de-clutter!

Happy new year from your friends at American Storage!
