A 25 sq ft unit costs as little as £15-25/month — less than a streaming bundle for proper space.
Most decluttering projects fit comfortably in a 25-50 sq ft unit. 25 sq ft holds roughly 30 large boxes (a garden shed's worth). 50 sq ft fits the contents of a small one-bedroom flat including some furniture. If you're storing bikes, kayaks or larger sports gear, size up to 75 sq ft.
Almost anything domestic: clothes, books, seasonal decorations, sports equipment, baby and children's gear (cots, prams, toys you're saving for a sibling), hobby equipment, tools, garden furniture, archives and paperwork. There are restrictions on perishable food, plants, live animals, flammables, firearms and anything illegal — your facility will share a full list at sign-up.
Start with the 'maybe' pile rather than what's clearly junk. Items you can't bear to bin but don't need this year are the perfect candidates for storage. Pack into uniform boxes (Really Useful boxes or storage tubs), label every side, and keep an inventory list on your phone. Place items you'll want sooner near the door.
