Have you ever heard of minimalist living?

The idea of minimalist living is to clear your clutter, live with less and store items that you may not need all the time. Minimalist living helps to promote a calming lifestyle, it encourages you to only keep what is essential for your lifestyle while removing anything that may distract you. Minimalist living is different for each one of us.

So where to start?

Look around, evaluate the room, consider what the room is used for, are you making the most of your space?

Have a sort out! Decide what is essential and what is not.

Do you need some items out of your space but do not want to get rid of it? Book your self-storage, it’s the perfect solution!

Have you finished decluttering? Remain conscious of your decisions when making purchases it the future. 

Store Your Items

You may find that there are a lot of items you might not use all the time, but wouldn’t ever want to get rid of. This could be anything, for example spare furniture, items of sentimental value, and even seasonal items that you don’t need cluttering up your home.

For these sorts of items, self storage is perfect as the items will be out of your home, but you still have access to all your items whenever you need! City Safe Storage could be a really convenient solution for you, we have various sized units that will meet your needs.

Be Conscious Going Forward

Once you have got to a point where you are happy with your minimalistic (or minimised) home, it’s important to keep the same mentality going forward. Before you buy something new, ask yourself if you really need it. Alternatively, if you want to upgrade something you already have, make sure to get rid of the old item – for example, if you want to get a new dish set, get rid of the old one, or put it into storage.
