You may have experienced the feeling of trying to herd a bunch of cats when you plan a large move. Packing, planning and endless lists are all part of the whirlwind. Wong Chuk Hang’s ministorage can save the day, more info?
If you’re like most people, you have a room filled with boxes and are wondering how to begin. My last move made me feel like I was in a cardboard forest. My lifeline could have been mini storage. It is a haven of calm in the midst of chaos. You can complete your list of tasks without having to worry about tripping on boxes.
Imagine your book collection. I packed enough books to fill a small collection, but they didn’t move by themselves. Mini storage is a great way to temporarily store items that you love but may not need right away. You don’t have to carry around the Shakespeare anthology if you just need your slippers.
Let’s talk about furniture. You may be like me and have a mixture of IKEA items, vintage pieces, and hand-me downs. You don’t want to give up Granny’s old rocking chairs, but you are short of space in your new home. It goes into storage! Voila! Problem solved.
There’s also the seasonal stuff. Once, I discovered that I had more winter gear in my closet than I would need for an Arctic expedition. Your bulky winter coats and snow boots are just taking up space in Hong Kong’s hot summers. Mini storage units can serve as your own Narnia closet where you hide Christmas lights and ski gear until they are needed.
What happens if you downsize? You might be moving into a new, upscale apartment in Wan Chai. If you’re moving into a smaller space, it is important to think about what you will bring with. Mini storage can be used as an overflow parking. Keep the things you love close by and store the rest for another time.
