Choose the right storage facility to keep your stuff safe

It is common knowledge that less cluttered home appears more spacious. However, most of us have limited space in our homes. This is particularly true for those who live in apartments. Growing city population and rising property prices have made it very difficult for us to buy any extra space to store our personal stuff.

However, with the emergence of self storage places in NYC and elsewhere, it has become easier for us to meet our storage requirements without having to shell out any large amount of money. While these companies offer a perfect solution to your storage woes, there are certain factors that you need to consider before choosing a storage facility-

  • Make sure the storage facility is licensed and insured. Storing your valuable items in an uninsured building is the last thing you want to do.
  • Make sure that the storage facility is equipped with modern surveillance systems. This will go a long way when it comes to prevention of theft.
  • The storage facility should provide an easy access to your stuff at all times.
  • You must also take into consideration the location of the storage facility. Avoid storing your personal stuff at a facility which is too far from your home.

  1. You have some good tips for choosing the right storage facility. It is definitely a good idea to make sure the facility has a modern surveillance system for security. I would hate to store my stuff in a place that doesn't have that! http://www.islandmovers.com/other-services/portable-on-site-storage
