Advantages of Short-Term vs. Long-Term Storage for Vancouver Residents and Businesses

People love storage lockers for their convenience, flexibility and affordability. Not only that, but where else can you drop off your stuff knowing it will be kept secure and you’ll have access to it anytime you need? Storguard, for instance, is open 7 days a week and has round-the-clock video surveillance manned by a security guard 24 hours a day. That’s safe!

Storage units provide options for people in all kinds of circumstances. Needs tend to fall into 2 different groups: those needing a locker only for a short period of time, generally 1 to 3 months, and those requiring an ongoing storage solution. There are plenty of advantages to both. 

Short-term storage advantages

• Affordable, convenient, flexible storage
• Have time to make decisions
• Worry-free security
• Great for moving day, student holidays, home shopping, etc.

Long-term storage advantages

• Affordable, convenient, flexible storage
• Room for business stock and records
• Helps with business organization
• Worry-free security
• Great for seasonal decorations, sports equipment and vehicles

Long-term storage is particularly relevant for those Vancouver residents who’ve started their own business. If you find your business is growing, don’t let the lack of space at your home limit growth. You’ll find storage lockers a fantastic resource for organization and expansion. Utilize storage lockers to their fullest to develop your business as you need.

As you can see, both options offer affordable and convenient, safe storage with quick access anytime you need. Additionally, you can upsize or downsize your lockers to fit your changing circumstances. For instance, short term storage becomes long term storage if you decide that’s the option that really works for you.
