How Lok’nStore self storage can help you de-clutter

February 21, 2011

With spring just around the corner, we figured that it's time to talk about de-cluttering your house or flat!

There can be a variety of reasons that you might need to de-clutter your home. Maybe you are trying to sell your flat or house and you need to make it look… slightly larger. What better way than to de-clutter and make more space. Just by putting a few items away into storage, you can make your home look bigger and airier. But it could also be that you just want to create more space now that your children have moved out, or maybe they are students away at college or university? If so, de-clutter today!

We think that the best way to avoid having to de-clutter is… not to buy too much stuff, but if it’s already too late for that, and your spare-room, loft, garage, and shed are overflowing – then you need to call Lok’nStore Self Storage.

To start your spring de-cluttering campaign you will need some quality cardboard boxes from your local Lok’nStore facility, all at the lowest prices in the industry. That’s right! Our boxes and bubblewrap are the cheapest around.

Lok’nStore cardboard boxes start from as little as £2.50 for a small box, £3.50 for a medium, £4.50 for a large, and £5.00 for an extra-large box. For a full range of boxes and packing items check-out our pack shop or visit your local centre. And it doesn’t end there with the boxes either. Lok’nStore also sells a wardrobe box! “What on earth is a wardrobe box I hear you say?” A wardrobe box will allow you to put clothes that you don’t need now – like winter coats, etc. into a box, hanging them on coat hangers without them getting horribly creased-up. Priced at a cheap £10 each, these boxes are also ideal for clothes storage if you are moving house or flat. We also sell a little archive box (with lid) for just £2.50. These archive boxes were really designed for office filing, paperwork, and document storage but are also perfect for storing household items, stacked in the bottom of your wardrobe or underneath your bed. The 1 cubic square foot archive box is small, strong, and cheap.

You may also find that you need bubblewrap to wrap and protect the more fragile pieces and items before you put them into storage. Well, Lok’nStore can help you with that too! We sell bubblewrap at the low price of just 60p per metre (10 metres £6.00) at all our self-storage facilities. You can buy from 10 metres to 100 metres for just £40. We also sell other types of packaging protection including tissues and packing paper, both at the lowest prices around.

So what now? You’ve been to Lok’nStore and collected enough storage boxes to de-clutter you house or flat and pack away all those items that you want to keep, but don’t need to have laying around the house or flat all the time.
