Relocating to a smaller place? We’ve got the perfect downsizing tips you need!

How do you trim and move a generation of memories and possessions from a big family house to a compact space? It may seem daunting deciding what to carry along, what to flick away, and of course, dealing with a deluge of emotions especially if you have stayed for a long time. But, our expert tips for moving will help you sail through it all. Let’s delve.

Keep what’s important

When downsizing, ‘less is more’ is the buzzword. Get rid of things that are not important to you. Coronavirus lead pandemic has made us all realise that minimalist living is the way forward. That doesn’t mean you have to comprise your quality of life. So ensure you make arrangements for your must-haves in your new home.

For instance, as you get used to less room inside your new compact abode, you may feel like going out more. Check if the place around your neighbourhood has plenty to offer like recreational hubs like a clubhouse or a tennis court. In this way, you will always have that sense of community.

Office inside home

Moving to a smaller place may put a frown on your face as you wonder – “What about my office space?” Let’s turn that frown upside down. Just find a corner you like and bring in a desk set-up that would fit right. If you want a private room as an office, make sure to check if the new place has enough room.

Pro tip - If nothing works, look for other homes or rent/find a co-working space.

Be open-minded

Moving to a smaller place need not put walls around your mind. Don't feel restricted. You’ll feel lighter and unburdened eventually as you realise how many things that you never needed have been taken off your shoulders! You have a lot of things to fall in love with - less maintenance, no more pressure to host a large number of people, and relocating to urban places. The latter can reduce your car drives in a comforting way and bring you closer to your favourite malls, restaurants and cultural programmes.

How To Check If The Self-Storage Company In Dubai And Abu Dhabi Is Safe?

 

Around 15 years ago, self-storage in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and other bustling cities of UAE was a bit more than a side business. Today self-storage has become one of the most essential services across UAE with ever-increasing customer demand. Having said that, there’s a rise in the number of self-storage players too which raise an important concern – Is my self-storage provider safe? We’ll help you sort that out through this article.

The trust factor

The wisest of the wise would tell you that you feel secure in a relationship when you trust the other person. Similarly, find out whether the customer base of your prospective self-storage in Abu Dhabi or Dubai company is built on trust or clickbait. Are they genuinely satisfied tenants? Does the self-storage provider have a history of creating strong bonds of trust with customers?

Meets every need

Another aspect of a secure self-storage company is its ability to meet customers’ needs in the long and short run. We advise you to choose a company that offers state-of-the-art security features like climate-controlled units, alarms, fences, and 24 hour CCTV. It should have a trained and experienced team of members who make sure they transport your valued possessions safely and securely using the latest packing and unpacking tools. Check if the self-storage company bases its services on sensitivity to individual needs and treats its clients and their goods with great care.

Social status

Don’t think for something as physical as a self-storage unit it need not score high on social. In this age of social media, it pays to check if the self-storage company has a good digital presence. Does the provider show signs of friendly, truthful, and responsive conversations on Facebook, Twitter, and other social platforms? Does it talk to its customers rather than talking at them? 

Choose a self-storage company that has a refreshingly relaxed and engaging dialogue with its customers, answering all their queries, and addressing all their concerns promptly. If it provides storage tips and other related solutions in their blogs, that’s a plus!
