Summer self-storage

Autumn is here, and we're putting light shirts, dresses, and shorts back in the wardrobe until next summer! From one season to the next, we're juggling our wardrobes and it's easy to end up with a wardrobe in disarray and/or on the verge of implosion. Think about renting a storage room to free up space in your wardrobes!

A storage space to keep your summer clothes in order over winter

The heat is replaced by the cold these winter days. Which means you won't be needing your outdoor items for a long time. Until next summer, all your outdoor furniture will be of no use to you. If that's the case, there are several solutions available to you:

• You have a cellar, an attic, or even a garage where you can store your garden furniture and outdoor games without taking up too much space.
• Or you're short of space in your home and don't know where to store your things without taking up too much space. The best thing to do would be to store them in a dedicated, secure room to make room.

If this sounds like you, MondialBox®'s storage room rental solution is the answer to your need for storage outside your home. You'll be able to store your summer clothes or belongings yourself, just like at home, but in a secure, flexible location close to where you live. With locations all over France, you're sure to find a storage unit rental near you. What's more, the advantage of our storage unit rentals is that you have unlimited access to your unit 24/7.

 

Storage unit rentals for your summer belongings: prepare your storage space in advance

As the bad weather sets in, it's with a heavy heart that you find yourself having to put away your summer clothes and accessories. Every year it's the same old battle to find the space you need to store them in your home. More and more people are using a storage room outside their home to make their life more comfortable. But storing your belongings in a unit for rent needs to be prepared in advance so that you don't end up scattered all over the place. Before you can leave your summer clothes to rest in a unit for a whole season, you need to meet certain conditions. First of all, you need to sort your clothes. Make sure you don't mix everything up, because each item of clothing needs specific care. What's more, this will make it easier to find your way around and save you time when you need to bring out your summer clothes in your unit the following year. What's more, sorting your belongings is the best way to reduce the number of boxes you need to store and to get rid of the clothes you no longer want. It's also a good time to take stock of your spring-summer collection and make a note of the items you're missing from your wardrobe, or those you have too many of! And don't forget to wash your clothes before storing them. Your clothes are going to be stored in a storage unit for a long time, so it's a good idea to clean them before you put them away. This will help prevent mould and damage.

Making the most of the space in your storage unit

To store your summer clothes and accessories efficiently in a secure room, you need to be well organised. Here are a few tips to help you do just that: To begin with, you can use cardboard boxes to organise your belongings in your unit. However, the best solution is to use plastic boxes to avoid dampness and possible knocks. Our units are watertight steel containers, renowned for their resistance to the elements and humidity. You can then organise your belongings by colour, size, and/or type of clothing. You can then mark the elements that make up each of your boxes or cartons. For example, if a box is made up of dresses only, write that down in marker. This tip is effective because it will save you time when it comes to retrieving some of your belongings, or when you have to fit everything into the cupboards in your home. When it comes to arranging your belongings in your storage unit, you'll need to think in "Tetris" terms. In other words, place the boxes judiciously to save space. Don't hesitate to stack the plastic boxes with the cardboard boxes to make your storage easier. The double doors on our units make it easy to store your belongings. And finally, one of our last little tips: remember to put heavy boxes and clothes at the bottom of the storage unit. This will prevent them from becoming unbalanced when you store them. All these tips will make moving your accessories to your storage unit easier. Don't hesitate to request a quote for your unit by filling in the online form for the town where you live.

Self-storage unit rentals: Absolute security

Beach towels, buoys, buckets, spades, and parasols are all essential items for the summer season! They're only useful for a few weeks of the year, but take up space in your home the rest of the time. Storing them in a secure unit will ventilate your home and save you a considerable amount of space. At MondialBox®, each centre is equipped with alarm and video surveillance systems with motion detectors and automatic lighting to prevent any intrusions. What's more, each of our units is private, with a unique access code that is sent to you when you sign your rental contract. You can even bring in storage racks or furniture. Don't forget to use vacuum bags to save space, especially for large items such as inflatable tents. Some centres offer packing materials and shelving units for sale.

Ideal storage space for your garden furniture

Moisture and dirt accumulated on your outdoor furniture can cause mould to develop and gradually spread. To prevent your furniture from deteriorating and cracking due to the frost caused by the cold, and to preserve it for the long term, the storage unit solution is ideal. What's more, at MondialBox®, all our units for rent are accessible on ground level with your vehicle, making it easy to load and unload even the largest pieces of furniture. But before storing your garden furniture in one of our units, we recommend that you clean and protect it beforehand.

The right storage space for your sports equipment

The end of summer means the end of your outdoor sports sessions. So you'll need to tidy up and sort your sports equipment. It's best to store them by type of machine and by weight, to make the most of the space in your home. But you may not have enough space in your home to store them without feeling cramped. Storing them in a secure unit close to your home will allow you to collect them whenever you like and will save you a considerable amount of space, making your life much more comfortable. Our storage unit rentals service offers a range of unit sizes so that you can store everything in one place. Don't hesitate to use our unit size simulator to estimate the surface area and volume from which you need to store all your belongings.
