How a U-Haul Storage Can Help During The Holiday Season

Oct 10, 2023

When the holiday season arrives, we usually believe we have a plan for it. But we end that there are many things we didn’t consider, like holiday shopping, setting up decorations, and cooking for the family. With so much to juggle, U-Haul storage can become a secret advantage during the holiday season.

Holiday Shopping

Nothing beats shopping during the holidays, but you want your gifts to be a surprise, so try to keep them away from the nosey people trying to get a sneak peek at their gifts. Why not hide them at U-Haul? Treat one of our storage units like your personnel Santa’s Workshop and store your family members’ gifts. You have multiple different size options to choose from that can fit your needs. Whether you bought a new big-screen TV or the kid’s new bikes, you can decrease the clutter in your home by storing it at U-Haul.

Christmas Decorations

While you’ll have some items that are easy to care for, like Christmas stockings, many of the seasonal items we use all year round are very fragile. Taking special care with heirlooms and other traditional items like the menorah and glass decorations is essential to remember. Stocking up on packing supplies like bubble cushions for the smaller items (like figurines) and biodegradable packing peanuts for more oversized items (like artificial Christmas trees or Hanukkah decorations).

Protecting Holiday Decorations

If you have seasonal dishware and silverware that only comes out for special occasions and holidays, packing those items with care in size-specific bubble bags can ensure that your dishes, bowls and glassware are available for years. Glass Pack and Dish Saver kits also come with the necessary supplies for properly storing these fragile items.

Storage during the holiday season can have many alternative uses if you get creative. Visit UHaul.com to learn more about what we offer.
