You Might Not Think That You Need Storage


You Might Not Think That You Need Storage

  • The last person wanting a storage unit, she was looking to find a place to store her personal belongings before the end of the month. She lives in a small one bedroom apartment in Manhattan and was moving in with a girlfriend that lived in a brownstone apartment in the Bronx. Devastated and in tears, she described how she lost her job that week and her boyfriend of three years just moved out. The lease was up in two weeks. She was reminded that she was lucky to have a friend who was there for her, being a true friend. The most trying times present an opportunity for your real friends to treat you the way they would want to be treated. She was also reminded that she was looking for a job when she found the last one, and now she has the opportunity to find a better one for herself. While she was searching online for management properties in the Bronx, she was showing strength of character in taking the first step to organize herself. She found out that there are a lot of management properties offering storage, and so many specials it was mind boggling. She did a search by zip code and narrowed down some of the management properties to check out. Then she made a list of management properties that featured high tech security and protection coverage. Then she telephoned to talk to some of the management properties to verify her guess that a five foot by fifteen foot storage unit would work for her. She was going to store everything except a good portion of her spring and summer wardrobe and toiletries. Because she had never stored before, she found out the climate controlled unit that was available at many of the management properties would work best for her, as designer clothes, including leather coats fair much better in a unit that maintains a controlled temperature. So no matter what season it is, the storage unit will stay within a few degrees of 70. The protection plan was also a must item to include in the month to month agreement. Why chance not getting compensated should a fire, theft or water main break at the facility, it was less than ten dollars a month? She really did not want to risk losing anything else in her life. The way her luck was going, she was not about to tempt fate. She figured that it was cheaper to rent a storage unit to keep her belongings safe while she got herself emotionally and financially back on her feet. Self-preservation rules during times pre-empting dramatic life style changes. She had enough money that she could afford to pre-pay for six months. In fact pre-paying turned out to be an incentive also, as the facility offered her another month of storage free. There is a sense of relief knowing you are not going to lose anything else. She felt sure she could get her life back on track in seven months. The last thing to organize was a truck. The facility also offered a free truck as a new customer incentive and only needed 48 hours notice to schedule. This was going to work out great, a free truck to use for three hours. With the storage unit secured with a ten dollar non-refundable pre-payment going towards her first months rent, she had taken the first step. Tomorrow she would go to the facility and sign the contract, pre-pay her six months, schedule the truck, buy her lock, boxes, bubble wrap and tape and go home and start packing. She was ready.
