Boston Student Storage for Summer 2017

May 14, 2017 by admin

Classes are done, and it’s time to find a place to stow your stuff until the fall semester. Student storage is a big business in Boston, and you want to make sure you’re choosing to keep your possessions in a safe place. Here are some tips to keep in mind when choosing a Boston student storage facility:

Choose a student storage facility that’s actually a business.

Despite what your friends told you, their parents are probably not ‘totally fine’ with you piling up boxes and bags of your stuff in their garage between semesters. And even if your friends have their own place, are they truly prepared to protect your possessions against fire, thieves, and bad weather? All it takes if for them to have one visitor with sticky fingers and you can lose everything. Don’t put your friends in that kind of awkward position. Choose a Boston student storage facility that’s actually a business. It will cost you a little bit of money, but you get greater peace of mind and can keep your relationships with your friends in good shape.

You can put a lot in student storage – but not everything!

Student storage units come in a variety of sizes, from the equivalent of a very large closet to a space large enough to park a car. Choose a student storage unit based on the amount of stuff you need to store. There’s no sense in paying for more space than you need! Be aware that there are some items that can not be kept in a storage unit, including live animals (this includes tarantulas, reptiles, and other tank based pets), live plants, perishable food items, toxic chemicals and more. Check with your Boston student storage facility owner before storing any questionable items: they will have clear guidelines making the do’s and don’ts very clear.

"I used Boston Pack & Ship to send an antique drop-leaf table that had been my mother's and four Windsor chairs that my father had made, an antique blanket chest and two large framed (with glass) photographs. I had no special instructions, but all the items had huge sentimental value - they were all special to me and were now being sent to our oldest son who had just bought his first home. So it was important that they arrive safely. Both Bill and Joe were very friendly, up front with the fees and service provided and the process went just as they described. I might not have thought any more about it, but when the furniture arrived, our son made a point of calling and saying how nice the movers had been and said that I should feel comfortable recommending them to anybody in need of their services."
