The overview: the 10 most stored items

What do people store in their storage units? Here are the ten most common items:

1. Furniture
Without a doubt, number one. Whether it’s a sofa, bed, wardrobe or an entire household’s contents—meubels is often stored during a move, renovation or temporary let of a property. Temporary storage is ideal for this.

2. Seasonal items
From Christmas decorations to ski equipment and garden furniture: items you only use a few months a year take up unnecessary space at home. In a storage unit they’re safe and out of sight.

3. Archives and documents
Especially for businesses, renting a storage unit for archiving is practical and sometimes legally required. We offer dry, secure spaces for the long-term preservation of important documents.

4. Clothing and textiles
When space is limited at home or during seasonal changes, many people store clothing, bedding and other textiles. Students and young families make frequent use of this service.

5. Books and collections
Books, comics, records or other collectibles are often valuable and sensitive to moisture and light. A well-secured storage unit is a wise choice in such cases.

6. Hobby and sports equipment
Think surfboards, bicycles, camping gear or model kits. Handy if you don’t have a shed at home or simply want a clutter-free living space.

7. Stock and merchandise
Freelancers and small webshops in particular use Eurobox’s storage units for stock and merchandise. We offer flexible sizes and acceptance of goods.

8. White goods and electronics
Fridges, washing machines and televisions are often stored temporarily between two residences or when letting out a property.

9. Children’s and baby items
Cribs, buggies, toys and children’s clothing—all items that aren’t needed for a time but certainly not discarded.

10. Heirlooms or sentimental possessions
Sometimes you want to keep certain items even if you don’t use them daily. Think heirlooms, photo albums or other valuable mementos.
