Just like Santa’s workshop humming with elves nimbly making toys, the holiday season is a busy time for people too. Houses filled with extra gifts, guests, trees and decorations–it can be a real struggle to stay organised.
But Santa’s elves have a secret to share that helps them stay on top of it all–elf storage! They simply take everything to their (s)elf storage units whenever they’re running out of room to keep their space tidy and uncluttered. There’s no need to try to shove things in closets or under Santa’s bed. Nor do they have to spend precious time and energy figuring out where to put things. And neither do you!

Storage locker holiday tips

  • Store out-of-season items: clothing, toys, garden tools
  • Store patio furniture, bbqs, bikes, sports equipment
  • Store knick-knacks, every-day decorations
  • Store bulky & extra furniture: chairs, ottomans, desks
  • Store unused or occasionally used exercise equipment & appliances
  • Store unused or extra vehicles to make room for out-of-town guests
  • Clear closets & spare bedrooms of clutter and pre-stored items

Take the stress out of holiday preparations by using storage units to their fullest. All the unused items around your kitchen, living room, guest rooms, bedrooms, closets and garages can go into storage. Think of all the extra space you can free up to host festive parties and stay-over guests (even if they bring their own sleighs or cars). Deck your home out in true holiday style with as large a tree as you’ve always wanted and lots of decorations. Make it feel spacious, warm and welcoming. Also, hide presents without worrying if they’ll be found!
When the season is over, just make a swap–move holiday items into storage and take out what you need, like maybe the exercise equipment for those 2026 New Year’s resolutions we all make!
Do like Santa’s elves and take advantage of (s)elf storage this holiday season. Put your mind at ease while you free up the space you and your family need to relax and enjoy the holidays in peace.
Oh, one last thing. When you’re organising your storage locker so you can find things more easily, we recommend using shelves. The elves really seem to like them!
