Fall is a great time to clean up. Make it easy!

Philly has turned chilly and I can feel the change in the weather and the change in people's attitudes when they call us for storage. Everyone is battening down the hatches and cleaning up before winter sets in. Here are some ideas to make winter simpler and clutter free:

  • Clear out seasonal tools Prep your lawnmover and weedwacker for its annual hibernation and store it away for the winter months. No sense in tripping over hedge clippers until you need them again in the spring. Your garage and storage space will be nice and clean with easy access to your snowblower and shovels.
  • Exchange decorations Swap Easter and Halloween items for your Christmas and holiday lights. Yard displays and lights have gotten bigger and better but they take up more space in the off-season. Rotating them in a storage unit can free up a lot of space and open up your closets.
  • Clean out your closets Put away bathing suits and short sleeve shirts and replace them with sweaters and jackets. Closets space is always at a premium and it's silly to crowd the clothes and items you need with summer dresses and sandles that you won't use for months.

A little effort now can make your house feel bigger and more livable all winter. I'm a believer in the convenience and ease of mobile storage and we have lots of customers rotate their belongings every spring and fall. Get organized now and have a great fall and winter!
