Sometimes the best way to live large is by going tiny.<\/p>\n
And that\u2019s because of all the freedom\u2014and opportunity\u2014that tiny living offers. Instead of vacuuming the house, you can go for a fall hike. Instead of paying your mortgage, you can take a cruise. Instead of dreading your tax bill, you can enjoy the day.<\/p>\n
The only problem? You\u2019ve got a whole house worth of stuff.<\/p>\n
To fit into a tiny home<\/a>, you\u2019ll have to change your attitude toward your possessions. Don\u2019t let your possessions define who you are. Here are a few tips to get you started.<\/p>\n \u2022 Don\u2019t keep something because you might<\/em> use it someday or because you want to use it. Only keep stuff that you actually use. Tiny living has so many advantages, but it also has its challenges, especially when it comes to storage space (basically, there isn\u2019t any). Where do you keep your camping gear, skis, or even your off-season clothing?<\/p>\n Luckily, there is an easy fix. At StorageMart, you can rent a unit as small as 25 square feet or so\u2014or up to the size of a garage. We offer affordable self storage units<\/a>\u00a0that can be rented on a month-by-month basis and are always clean and well lit. Need more info?

\n\u2022 Don\u2019t keep any kitchen gadgets that have just one use, like bread makers or ice-cream makers.
\n\u2022 Go digital with your books and movies.
\n\u2022 Streamline your morning routine. Use the same kind of shampoo\/toothpaste as your housemate. Get rid of things<\/a> you rarely use, like hot rollers.
\n\u2022 Replace large items with smaller versions, such as your TV and furniture.
\n\u2022 Donate any clothing you have not worn in the last year. Even better, take note of what\u2019s in your laundry basket from week to week. Those are the clothes to hang onto.
\n\u2022 Edit collectibles and keepsakes down to your very favorites.<\/p>\nDownsizing Your Home and StorageMart<\/h2>\n
