Target Keyword: storage unit cleanout
If you are paying monthly rent for a storage unit you have not visited in months (or years), you are not alone. Millions of Americans spend money storing items they have forgotten about or no longer need. A storage unit cleanout can put money back in your pocket and free you from that recurring expense. Here is everything you need to know.
The average storage unit in Los Angeles costs $150 to $300 per month, depending on size and location. Over a year, that is $1,800 to $3,600. Over five years, you could spend $9,000 to $18,000 storing items that may be worth a fraction of that amount.
Ask yourself honestly: is what is in that unit worth what you are paying to keep it? For most people, the answer is no.
Step 1: Visit and inventory. Go to the unit and take stock of what is there. Photograph everything for reference.
Step 2: Sort ruthlessly. Use the same four-pile system: keep, donate, sell, and trash. Be honest — if you stored it years ago and forgot about it, you probably do not need it.
Step 3: Remove valuables first. Take anything you are keeping home with you. Documents, photos, heirlooms, and valuables should be secured.
Step 4: Schedule professional removal. Once you know what is leaving, call 911 Junk California. We will meet you at the storage facility, load everything from the unit, and haul it away.
Step 5: Cancel your rental. Once the unit is empty, give notice to the storage facility and stop that monthly payment.
The cost depends on the size of the unit and how full it is:
These ranges include labor, hauling, and disposal. We provide a free estimate at the unit before any work begins.
Cleaning out a storage unit yourself means renting a truck, loading everything, driving to the dump, paying disposal fees, and potentially making multiple trips. When you factor in the time and effort, hiring professionals is often the same cost or cheaper, and far less stressful.
