TIPS FOR SUMMER STORAGE

  • You want to make sure that you get a space that is big enough to hold your belongings.  Visit http://www.southernsafestorage.com/pages/rent to see our visual size guides.  
  • Look for month to month rental.  No need to sign a 6 month contract if you only need 3 months of storage.  Southern Safe Storage offers month to month rentals.
  • Do NOT store clothes in plastic bags!  Repeat, Do NOT store clothes in plastic bags!
  • Climate controlled storage is necessary in some situations, but do you really need it?  Climate controlled storage has its place but it also comes with a hefty price tag.
  • Don't fall for $1 rent first month or first month free.  Read the fine print.  Do the math.  Are you actually benefiting from the "deal" or is it actually costing you more?
  • Visit your facility.  Is it safe?  How is the lighting?  Talk to the owners.  Ask questions.  Is the company locally owned and operated?  If you have a problem, could you reach an owner locally?
Even if you aren't leaving town for summer, a self-storage may help you organize your dorm room or apartment.  Southern Safe Storage can keep your belongings safe, yet accessible, so you can us them any time.  Visit http://www.southernsafestorage.com to reserve a storage unit today and kickback and enjoy your summer!
