TOP CONSIDERATIONS FOR RENTING STORAGE SPACE BETWEEN HOME MOVES
Some people choose to sell their home the traditional way by looking for their next property whilst placing theirs on the market. Others find it more cost-effective to sell their home early, move into a relatives place or back with their parents until they can buy a new home as a chain free buyer, this results in a better buying position that sellers look more favourably on.
Either way, whether you move in with relatives, parents or rent temporary accommodation, you are going to need space to store as much of your belongings as possible.
Storage containers are just the solution to that problem.
When renting storage containers, you do need to shop around and not be enticed with initial incentive offers. More often than not, homebuyers who have yet to put an offer in on a new property could be in temporary accommodation for a longer period than expected. It could be two months, it could be six.
The financial pressure of knowing that your storage is about to rise in price considerably, could have you feeling pressured to purchase any home in order to keep your short-term costs as low as possible. Especially if you are renting as you will have additional rental costs along with the price of storage.
