Mary and David Baker had three decades of happy memories in their four-bedroom colonial home set on a third of an acre. Four kids. Gardens every summer. Thirty Christmases.<\/p>\n
But they\u2019re also the kind of couple that looked forward to the next phase of life. They\u2019d go to farmers markets every Friday, have the grandkids over for sleepovers, and enjoy the luxury of being able to drop everything on a dime and travel.<\/p>\n
While they looked forward to downsizing, there were a few things they weren\u2019t willing to give up. For David, it was getting the house totally decked out for Christmas. For Mary, it was the collection of antiques<\/a> that simply didn\u2019t fit in her new home<\/a>, but which she knew at least one of her children would eventually put to good use.<\/p>\n The Bakers had enough friends who had downsized to know that self storage could offer them the best of both worlds. They could have the organized, stylish, and manageable home they craved, while still holding onto the luxuries and extras that help make life interesting.<\/p>\n The only question: What size unit did they need?<\/a><\/p>\n First, they sat down and made a list of everything they\u2019d be storing. It included the following:<\/p>\n \u2022 An antique bed, desk, and armoire After doing a bit of decluttering, they decided that a small storage unit (about 100 square feet) would more than meet their needs. While they knew they could always stuff those items in the closets of their new home, they wanted their entire place to be clean, organized and clutter-free\u2014and they definitely wanted to be able to enjoy their guests, especially grandchildren.<\/p>\n At StorageMart, you can rent a unit as small as 25 square feet or so\u2014or up to the size of a garage.
