A Guide to Getting Your Winter Gear Out of Hibernation
Published on 11/14/2024
As the temperatures continue to drop, suddenly, it’s winter! It seems like it was yesterday that you had just finished
preparing for autumn. Keeping track of your seasonal belongings isn’t as easy as it looks. The storage units at
Outta Sight Storage leave breathing room for your attics and basements to avoid becoming overly cluttered, with various unit sizes ranging from 10x5 to 14x40. To help you keep your head straight during the holidays, we’ve compiled a guide to help you transition your storage from fall décor to winter sports, holiday ornaments, and cold-weather apparel.
Choosing a Proper Storage Option
Our
self-storage units vary in size to meet your requirements for decluttering your house. Seasonal items are a recipe for disaster in messy attics and basements. Our units fit the contents of everything from a mid-sized bedroom to a house with multiple bedrooms. With our 24/7 drive-up access, you can access boats, snowmobiles, and cars whenever you need. That means you can quickly grab your snowmobile and snowboards anytime for a fun snow day!
Steps for Winter Storage
Christmas, Hanukkah, New Year’s, and winter activities make anyone scatterbrained to find time to decorate and enjoy their annual rituals simultaneously. Get ready for an easy, organized winter where you can find any sports gear and decorations quickly. We help you get creative with your holiday organizing with
seasonal storage solutions, including the following:
- Donate items you no longer care for or need. Everyone needs winter sweaters!
- Purchase storage containers for fragile items with value, such as mittens, hats, Christmas ornaments, string lights, and warm clothing. Replacing damaged string lights every year can get expensive.
- Invest in wall mounts for your skis, snowboards, and sleds.
- Give yourself the gift of organization by storing your winter sports gear in your storage unit.
- Storing large winter sports equipment, like a snowmobile, in a garage or storage unit prevents weather-related damage.
- Don’t forget to keep clothing accessible for any tropical winter trip plans.
Making Space Year-Round
Before you consider what winter gear you need to bring out,
think about your spring, summer, and autumn items for an easy swap in the
future. Every season brings varying decorations and equipment, easily resulting
in a cluttered house. Personal storage units are the perfect solution for items
you don’t need to use for several months. Winter clothing can be bulky, so
keeping your thick coats in your home closets during the summer wastes space. Give
yourself peace of mind without cramming skis and camping gear in one corner.
Categorizing and labeling your items by season also helps you stay organized
for a less chaotic switch as the seasons change.
