Fashion Comes Back Around

It’s a well-known fact that fashions and styles come back around so that a trend that was popular years ago will suddenly resurface.

As such, you could find that old furniture becomes fashionable again, and when it does, you want to be ready. Fashionable furniture always costs more, so if you have some in storage, then you can get ahead of the trends without spending a lot of money.

So, the next time you consider throwing away an outdated piece of furniture that’s functional but isn’t in fashion anymore, think again. If you work with us, then you can use your storage space to keep your old furniture over the long-term, so that when it’s back in fashion, you’re ready.

Upcycling Old Furniture Is Fun

Some old furniture will never come back in fashion, or you might simply hate looking at it. Thankfully, there are ways to change your furniture and turn it into a beautiful, unique piece.

Upcycling is a fun way to turn old, ugly furniture into something extraordinary. If you don’t have time for your project immediately, then you can hire one of our storage units and store furniture in it ready for upcycling.

Then, once you have the time to take on your project, you can take your furniture out of your storage unit and turn it into something unique and innovative.

Upcycling is easier than you think; you can reupholster many soft furnishings using tools and equipment that you already have in your home. If you need help, there are plenty of online guides where you can get inspiration and guidance.

Throwing Furniture Away Can Cost You Money

If you’ve never had to get rid of a large piece of furniture or equipment before, then you might be surprised to hear that many refuse centres charge for large furniture.

Many waste centres refuse to take bulky furniture without a fee. Additionally, if you need them to collect the item, then it could cost even more money.

If you choose to sell your item, then you might find that the fees on selling platforms such as eBay and Amazon quickly eat into your potential profits. Also, if you have any issues with the buyer, then the process could quickly become more hassle than it’s worth.

Thankfully, if you use one of our storage facilities, then you can keep your furniture and save it for when you move into a larger home, or you need the item again.

You Never Know When You Might Need Your Furniture

Some items, such as children’s furniture or sofabeds, might outlive their usefulness. However, in the future, when you have grandchildren, expand your family further or have a lot of guests, you might need the item again.

If you choose one of our self-storage units, then you can store your furniture in our secure storage facilities. You can then return and collect it when you need it so that you don’t have to buy a new item.

The cost of storing your furniture and other possessions could be less than the cost of replacing them, particularly if you’re storage large, expensive pieces of furniture.

Your storage unit isn’t only for furniture; you can use it for a variety of situations. For example, if you go travelling, then you can store your items in your storage unit temporarily.
