Save Money Now With These De-cluttering Tips…

Want to save at least a $1,000 a year? Clean out your self-storage unit. Nearly 1 in 10 households in the U.S. currently rent one, and let’s face it, most are filled with stuff people probably forgot they had. Here’s what you should do:

Don’t keep stuff “in case you need it.” You might as well make extra money by selling some of those items on eBay or Craigslist.

If you don’t have time to clean it out yourself, hire a professional organizer. It’ll cost you less in the long run.

If you must rent a unit, make sure it’s temporary. Many companies offer the first month’s rent free because they know you may stay indefinitely. Know what you’re storing and make sure you only keep the unit for a few months at most.
