One of the benefits of storing the furniture in a self storage unit is the fact that the self storage facilities usually rent their units by the month. This means that there is no annual or other long term contract that would cause the home owner to pay the monthly fee after they no longer need to keep their furniture in the storage unit. In fact, if the furniture is only stored for part of a month, the self storage facility will often return some of the rental fee to the home owner when the remodeling project is complete and the furniture has been moved out of the self storage unit.
Another benefit of storing the furniture in a self storage unit is the fact that it is still accessible if the family needs to get something. Since self storage facilities are quite popular, there is usually one located within a few minutes drive of a community so it is very convenient for a family member to stop in during their daily travels to and from work or school. In addition, most self storage facilities have weekend hours and daily hours that extend before and after the normal business hours. This allows the family members to access their stored belongings when it is convenient to them instead of during limited business hours.
