Gone are the days of storing\nsports gear, winter clothes, and home d\u00e9cor in an unorganized pile in a\ngarage or attic and hoping for the best. Today\u2019s lifestyle connoisseurs are\nbeing smart about storage by choosing the right size of unit and making\nmultiple visits throughout the year to pick up (and store away) personal items\non an \u201cas needed\u201d basis.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the years, we\u2019ve seen CubeSmart customers\nmake the most out of their storage units in the most inventive and useful ways.\nEvery spring, we meet folks storing winter clothes,\nsports gear, patio furniture and decorations used throughout the previous\nseason, and pulling out and cleaning their warm weather counterparts for the\ncoming months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re wondering how to get the most value\nand use out of your storage space this spring,\nyou\u2019re in the right spot. Below, we\u2019ll investigate the top items to switch out\n(and dust off) in spring, and give you plenty of ideas for items you might be\nable to pack and store in their place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Storing Sports Gear for\nAthletes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/800X600_Blog06_06-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20742\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/800X600_Blog06_06-4.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/800X600_Blog06_06-4-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/800X600_Blog06_06-4-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/800X600_Blog06_06-4-750x563.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Store winter sports gear and swap in spring sport gear.<br>Free Image via <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/pmfJcN7RGiw\">Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s face it: even in the best of times, sports gear is oftentimes\ndirty, sometimes smelly, and almost always in the way. Storing\nsports gear (and storing it properly), on the other hand, is easy and\nimportant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the ground starts thawing and the trees start budding, it\u2019s time to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/your-space\/organization\/how-to-store-your-winter-clothing-and-gear-2\/\">clean your winter sports gear<\/a> and pack it away for the next several months. We\u2019re talking skis, snowboards, sleds, snowshoes, and snowmobiles. Once you\u2019ve got those items safe and secure, pick up your tennis rackets, pickleball rackets, frisbees, kayaks, and surfboards so that you have them easily accessible for any summertime adventure that comes your way.&nbsp;  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most winter sports enthusiasts can get away with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/storage-resources\/size-guide\/5x5-storage-unit\/\">5&#215;5 storage unit<\/a> or, in the case of those storing sports gear for multiple people, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/storage-resources\/size-guide\/5x10-storage-unit\/\">5&#215;10 storage unit<\/a>. Bear in mind that if you\u2019re in the market for sports equipment storage that includes a snowmobile or two, you may need a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/your-space\/learn-what-fits-inside-a-10x10-storage-unit\/\">10&#215;10 storage uni<\/a>t.

Whether\nyou\u2019ve got kids in games every weekend, are a diehard pro sports fanatic, or\njust love to tailgate, the items you end up collecting can quickly overwhelm a\ngarage or outdoor shed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the winter chill begins to fade away,\nit\u2019s time to visit your storage space with any portable heaters, blankets,\ntents, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Under-Weather-MyPod-Royal-Blue\/dp\/B06ZZY559V\/ref=asc_df_B06ZZY559V\/?tag=hyprod-20&amp;linkCode=df0&amp;hvadid=198072474455&amp;hvpos=&amp;hvnetw=g&amp;hvrand=15113205034558743600&amp;hvpone=&amp;hvptwo=&amp;hvqmt=&amp;hvdev=c&amp;hvdvcmdl=&amp;hvlocint=&amp;hvlocphy=9028784&amp;hvtargid=pla-350466225721&amp;psc=1\">personal pop-up weather pods<\/a>. If you\u2019ve got the requisite winter clothes that go along with being an active\nfan, like beanies, scarves, and coats promoting your team, it\u2019s a good idea to\nclean and pack them away as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While it may be a bit melancholy to say\ngoodbye to your winter fan gear, if only for a few months, you can instantly\ncheer up by unpacking your summer fan gear! Grab your coolers, cornhole boards,\nportable grill, golf umbrellas, and sunshades to get ready to cheer your\nfavorite team on through the summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on the amount and size of the items\nyou need to store, you may be able to fit everything into a storage locker or\nsimple <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/storage-resources\/size-guide\/5x5-storage-unit\/\">5&#215;5 storage unit<\/a>.

They\u2019re big, they\u2019re\nbulky, they\u2019re plentiful, and boy do they take up tons of closet space. It can be rather difficult to find\nthe room when it\u2019s time to (finally) put away your boots, scarves, hats, coats,\nsnow pants, and gloves. Especially when all you want to think about is bathing\nsuits, flip flops, sundresses, and shorts. Enter self-storage!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While most customers can fit their winter clothes into a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/storage-resources\/size-guide\/storage-locker\/\">storage locker<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/storage-resources\/size-guide\/5x5-storage-unit\/\">5&#215;5 storage unit<\/a>, some people minimize the space required even\nfurther by using a vacuum storage bag to\nsuck all the air out of a container. Be careful, however. Removing the air can\nbe harmful for fabrics or materials and create deep creases in your clothes. Be\nsure to follow all instructions to minimize risk. Also consider sizing up your\nstorage space so that you don\u2019t have to use storage\nbags, and can give your garments a bit more breathing room. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more info and tips, check out our piece on\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/your-space\/organization\/how-to-store-your-winter-clothing-and-gear\/\">how to store your winter\nclothing and gear<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Storing Home D\u00e9cor<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/800X600_Blog06_01-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20737\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/800X600_Blog06_01-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/800X600_Blog06_01-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/800X600_Blog06_01-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/800X600_Blog06_01-1-750x563.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Store holiday decor and swap in your spring\/summer decor faves.<br>Free Image via <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/8V7ItC2M5JU\">Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Spring is also the season to swap home d\u00e9cor.\nMost people enjoy storing home decor like\nholiday decorations, tinder boxes, wreathes, and furniture covers because it\nmeans the warm, welcoming days of spring and summer are right around the\ncorner.

Storing it\ncorrectly, however, requires a little work to make sure you get as much life\nout of your furniture as possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cleaning patio furniture is extremely important at both ends of its\ntime in storage. While methods vary slightly depending on which material your patio furniture is made of, <a href=\"https:\/\/liveouter.com\/blog\/how-to-clean-outdoor-furniture\">most if not all of them <\/a>involve a bucket of warm water, a soft cloth,\nand detergent or dish soap. Many times you\nsimply have to let the furniture air dry before\nuse, so beware of cleaning them immediately before you want to use them. While\nit might seem like a needless pain, the pleasure that clean\noutdoor furniture provides should not be underrated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re interested in storing patio furniture in the off-season,\nconsider how to consolidate your items to make best use of the space. Customers\nfrequently need a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/storage-resources\/size-guide\/5x5-storage-unit\/\">5&#215;5 storage unit<\/a> or a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cubesmart.com\/storage-resources\/size-guide\/5x10-storage-unit\/\">5&#215;10 storage unit<\/a> for their patio furniture, so think about\nbuying furniture that can be folded or taken apart for storage to cut down on\ncosts. Big dining tables, Adirondack chairs, large wicker\nfurniture, and the like can quickly fill a storage space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mce_1\"><strong>Nowhere to store outdoor furniture at home?
