Can You Earn Money From Your Storage Space?

October 24, 2014

Now that’s an intriguing question, isn’t it? Some people do just that every day, perhaps by running a small business out of it. There are people who run eBay businesses and similar ventures who end up expanding into larger spaces because they’re doing so well. This is one of the advantages of having a storage space like this in the first place.

However, you should think about other ways to earn money from your space too. One of the most obvious things you can do is to search through what you have in there to see if there is anything you’d like to get rid of. Sometimes people put things in storage because they don’t want to get rid of them. Over time they realise they’ve got things in there they will never use, so the time comes to sort out the items they are willing to sell or throw away.

Do you have anything in your storage space you’d like to sell? It can be an excellent way to make a little extra cash. The auction site eBay is still a good place to run an auction or two, and you’d be surprised how much people will pay for things in some instances. It all depends on what you have of course, but it will always be a good way to sell on a few things.

It also has the advantage of freeing up more space in your, er… space. This means you can de-clutter some more at home and not have to increase the size of the space you’re renting. So it all works well and it could be a great way to make a little extra cash. Besides, it is rather freeing to sell things from time to time when you know you don’t need them anymore.
