Self-storage, the basics
If you look at your possessions when they're lying around your house, they might seem like they'd take up more space than they really do. Try not to overestimate the amount of space you need, as you don't want to pay for space that you don't use. At the same time, you don't want to get half-way through unpacking when you realize you need to upgrade your space. Estimate your space well. And remember that, with careful loading, more can fit into a self storage space than you expect.
