Self Storage & Personal Loss

Attachment

Sorting through loved one’s possessions comes with many emotions and attachment to items. Asking yourself to sort through and decide what to throw away and keep is too much immediately. What you need to do is box up the items as neat as you can and store them away. Take the time you need to think about the items and understand yourself what you want to keep them or not.

Finding Possessions

A vast majority of people own a self storage locker. So what does this mean when someone you love passes? You need to know if they had one. Start by calling the local companies and asking. If you find that there is one, you must first get the legal paperwork in order before visiting the self storage company. You need to have legal ownership over their estate, then we can open the locker to you.

Self Storage for the Long Term

Once you feel ready, you can visit the unit and decide what you want to keep and what you don’t. We are sure there will be some items that you do not want to part with and we understand. That unit will be reserved for you should you want to extend the length of the rental. Many storage companies offer great long term rates and we are no exception.
