Self-storage while hosting your home
Hosting people you have never met before can be pretty exciting, but you probably won’t want your personal belongings to be in the way while the guests are there.
Why self-storage can be handy if you want to rent out your room
- Create space: move stuff that you don’t need on a day-to-day basis into storage to so you can turn your spare room into a desirable AirBNB room.
- Make your guests feel at home: let the guests feel like they are in their own space by keeping personal belongings in storage.
- Privacy and freedom: keeping your personal belongings in storage will give you the freedom to pursuit this new venture.
