With the cost of living, money is indeed tighter than ever in 2023. Therefore, you need to be resourceful and think strategically about any ways you can save money, wherever possible. 

Do you wish you had more storage space at home? Buying or renting a large size property is not in everyone’s budget range. A simple solution to your storage dilemmas is to hire one of Magenta’s personal storage units. Here at Magenta Self Storage, we are first-rate providers of affordable storage, and we regularly help out people who are downsizing homes or after long-term business storage

Let’s go into how self storage can help people save money in 2023.

Storage makes downsizing easier

Mortgage rates and rents are high, so you could feel the financial hit by going for a bigger property purely for more storage capacity. In fact, downsizing can make sense for a lot of people, especially if your children have now left home. Hiring a self storage unit will help to facilitate your downsizing. 

Fear not, Magenta’s storage units at six locations across the Midlands and South East England go up to over 200 square feet in size. So, we will definitely have more than enough space if you are considering downsizing soon and looking for secure long-term storage for your belongings. 

What’s more, our prices are competitive and will depend on how much you need to store. Get a self storage quote today from us to find out more. 

You can share the cost of hiring a storage unit 

Another one of the key money saving elements of hiring a self storage unit is that you can share the cost with others. We have many satisfied family and student storage customers here at Magenta who share the cost between them. 

Are you a student in Reading or Oxford? Perhaps you and your flatmates have lots of possessions and are running out of space. Go and check out Magenta Self Storage Reading or our Oxford storage facility where we are currently running a 50% storage discount

Sharing the cost will save you all a lot of money. All Magenta Storage facilities are covered by 24-hour CCTV surveillance, and access is tightly controlled using PIN access control systems. Thus, your possessions will be safe and secure with us.

Avoid expensive home removal fees

Home removal services don’t come cheap for homemovers in 2023. Moving everything on the same day in a rush can also be pretty stressful! So, why not avoid the expensive home removal costs and move in gradually, bit by bit by renting a self storage unit? You may be glad to hear that we also offer storage boxes and packaging materials to customers at Magenta.

Self storage allows you to store items in bulk

Without a doubt, bulk-buying essential everyday items can save you considerable money in the long run. However, you may not want large amounts of bulk bought toilet paper and shampoo making up space in your home. Secure self storage units are the ideal place for your non-perishable bulk items. 

Saving money for online businesses

Small online businesses are popping up everywhere nowadays. Do you run your own online business? If so, you will appreciate the importance of reducing your costs and optimising business storage. Hiring affordably priced self storage units, like we offer at Magenta, is a cost-effective way to store your excess inventory. 

Just remember, you are not allowed to store perishable (food, drink), hazardous, flammable, or illegal items with us.

The storage discounts we offer at Magenta

Our generous discounts at Magenta Self Storage also go a long way in helping people save money in 2023. Take a look at our ‘refer a friend’ storage discount, which provides you with 20% off your storage quotes for 3 months.
