Extra Space Asia: Affordable furniture storage solution in Hong Kong

Planning for an upcoming home renovation project? Downsizing? Moving abroad due to work or personal reasons? Besides personal and family belongings, some of us might even have some furniture sets that we’d like to store as a keepsake or for future use. Unlike personal belongings like clothes or books, which can be stored in boxes, furniture is usually bulky and odd-sized, making it difficult to store while requiring more storage space. This is where self-storage solutions come in handy. Here are 3 reasons why self-storage can help.

  1. Wide range of storage sizes

From bed frames to sofa sets, cupboards, coffee tables and dining tables, there will always be a storage unit size that will be able to fit your needs. At Extra Space Asia Self-Storage, we offer a wide range of storage sizes ranging from 6 sqft to a spacious 200 sqft. You can also choose to store your items in a Locker or a Walk-in storage unit. If you’re unsure how much storage space you require to store all of your furniture, you can always call our friendly Customer Service Officer and let them know what furniture you’d like to store together with the measurements, and they’ll be able to assist you!

Here’s a storage tip: You should always disassemble big furniture items like bed frames and wrap them with stretch film or bubble wraps for fragile items. This way, it’d be much easier to store them, and they will also take up lesser space in the storage unit.

  1. Safe and secure storage space

When we only have a few items, we might just store them in our family’s or friends’ home. However, furniture usually takes up more space. By storing your furniture in a self-storage, you can be assured that it will be in safe hands. Most storage providers like Extra Space Asia have 24-hour CCTV monitoring system. In addition, at Extra Space Asia Self-Storage, you’ll also be provided with a complimentary unique PIN-code to access the storage premise. For added security, your storage unit can also be locked with a personal lock. This will provide you peace of mind knowing that only you’ve access to your storage units and items.

  1. Short-term and long-term storage options available

Unsure about how long you need to store your furniture? Don’t fret. At Extra Space Asia, you’ll have the flexibility to store for as short as 14 days to as long as you need. This means that you can freely choose between short-term or long-term storage options. And depending on your storage purpose, you can choose to downsize or upsize your storage unit anytime.

For customers who are going through a home renovation, short-term storage will be a great option to ensure that your furniture is clean and not damaged during the home renovation process. For customers who need to relocate or downsize their home, our long-term storage option is normally recommended so that you can store your furniture and belongings for as long as you need.

Here’s an extra perk to take note of! Most storage providers will usually provide a better deal for long-term storage customers.

Renting a storage space is now even more affordable!

3 smart ways to organise your kid’s room

When you have children at home, expect toys, books and knick-knacks scattered all over the floor. We know this mess can be frustrating to look at. But it does not have to be that way. Here are 3 smart ways for all parents to try today!

  1. Make use of storage boxes

One affordable way to organise all of our kid’s toys, books and miscellaneous items is to use storage boxes. Parents can instantly make a room look more orderly and clean by storing all of these items in different storage boxes and labelling them.

Parents can also explore the option of using transparent storage boxes, so that they can see the contents inside easily without opening each and every box to find something. It will also be good to have different sizes of boxes so that every item in the room has a dedicated storage space. For even more space, you can also think about adding furniture with clever built-in storage compartments.

  1. Involve your kids

Good habits start young. It is never too early to introduce and instil good healthy habits in our children. So, encourage them to clean up their toys after playtime. We can start by organising the items in their room properly so that they get accustomed to seeing things in an orderly and organised manner. Once they are older, they can be a part of your small cleaning and home projects. By building all of these good habits regularly, our children will soon learn and make an effort to keep their items and room organised.

  1. Explore the KonMari Method

Parents can try the KonMari method, Marie Kondo’s minimalist-inspired approach to tackle your items by category instead of by room. This method begins with tidying our clothes, then moving on to books, papers, miscellaneous items and finally sentimental items. We should only keep items that speak to the heart and discard those that no longer spark joy in our life. We can thank these items for being in our lives and then let them go.

By utilising the KonMari method, it will also help to organise every aspect of the kid’s room. This will also allow our kids to let go of stuff that they don’t require. If the items are still in good condition, we can choose to donate and pass it on to people who would find them useful. Through this process, we can also educate our children about the benefits of decluttering, where we are giving their items a new home and not just getting rid of it. We understand that the process of decluttering and organising a room takes loads of time and effort. However, if the end result is a clean and organised room for children to play, study and sleep in, it will definitely be rewarding.

With these 3 smart tips, you can say goodbye to the stress and frustration when organising your kid’s bedroom. If you are planning to make even more space at home to live in comfortably, you can always consider storing those hardly used items or seasonal items in a self-storage facility like Extra Space Asia. Call us at 3974 6000 today to find out more about the various storage plans.

Self-Storage

Living in dense cities such as Hong Kong can be challenging when you’re confined to limited public space and personal space. It’d be understandable if most individuals and families end up renting a self-storage unit in order to enjoy more space at home or in the office. By renting a mini storage unit, it can definitely help to provide the extra space to store your seasonal clothing, general items and even business inventories. Here are also 3 reasons why choosing a self-storage unit is a good way to expand your living space.

Long term vs short term storage

Not sure how long you should rent a self-storage? Don’t worry, there are self-storage providers such as Extra Space Asia who provides flexible storage rental duration of minimum 14 days storage to as long as you need. In this case, you’ll have the option to choose your storage duration according to your storage needs. This is also a cost-effective approach as you’ll only be paying for the storage period you require and nothing more.

Here’s how self-storage can help you:

Short-term storage will be useful if you’re undergoing home and business transition period such as a home renovation or in the midst of finding a new location. For business who are also just looking for a temporary storage space to store your festive sale items, it’d also be wise to just rent short-term storage for your business use.

Long-term storage will be a great option for those who are looking for a safe and secure storage space to store their growing business inventory or personal collection for a long period of time. If you’re planning of relocating to another country due to work or personal reasons, renting long-term storage will also be good as self-storage providers such as Extra Space Asia have staff present at the storage reception area during operation hours. This will help to ensure that your stored items are in good hands.

Self-Storage vs warehouse

Both the option of renting a self-storage and warehouse will provide you with that extra space for your personal and business items. However, there are some key differences which you should take note before making a decision.

Firstly, the amount of storage space available for rent. Self-storage units are offered in pre-determined sizes such as Locker or Walk-in storage unit while warehouse storage spaces can be customised based on your needs. If you’re mostly storing big scale machinery items or odd-sized items, the warehouse storage could be more beneficial to you. However, if you’re looking for a storage space to store a fixed quantity of items that require daily access, you might want to consider renting a self-storage unit.

Secondly, rental cost. Most warehouse would require you to sign a yearly contract while a self-storage unit is more flexible in terms of storage duration. By signing a yearly contract for a big space like a warehouse, it might lead to a higher deposit or down-payment compared to renting a self-storage unit. That’s because most of the storage rental cost is calculated based on the amount of space you rent at the point of time. In addition, once you sign a yearly contract for your warehouse storage, it’s best that you use the space for the full year (or longer, depending on your rental period). Otherwise, you’ll risk wasting money when you forfeit the contract. With a self-storage unit rental, you have the flexibility to move out of your unit anytime.

Self-storage tips and recommendations

If you’re a first-time mini storage user, here are some self-storage tips to take note beside the storage rental price. Firstly, you should always choose a self-storage provider that’s credible and here to stay with a proven track record. This way, you’ll have peace of mind when you choose to store your items with them.

Secondly, you should always personally visit the storage facility prior to signing up for a storage unit as this will provide you insights on how safe is the storage facility. During the visit, you should check the security features at the storage facility. Look out 24-hour CCTV surveillance cameras, the presence of the on-ground staffs and whether there’s any PIN code or card access to the storage areas. These security features are important as they will help to ensure that your items are store in a safe and secure storage facility.

Lastly, it’s also important that you check that your self-storage provider complies with the Fire Service Department (FSD) Fire Safety regulations so that your items are stored in a safe location. Click here to find out how you can check if your self-storage is FSD approved.

3 simple ways to keep your home clean and organised in the New Year

New Year, new me. That’s what many of us say on the first day of a brand new year. But instead of just a ‘new me’, why not include changing up your home situation for the better too? With many of us still working from home, our homes have become a place where we live for more than 12 hours a day. So it’s definitely important that we find simple ways to keep our home clean and organised. We’ve come up with these 3 simple ways which can be applied any day and any time.

  1. Tackle one room at a time

Most of our homes will include more than one room on top of the living room space. This means that you’d definitely need more time and effort to clean up every inch and corner of your home if you were to tackle it all at once. The easier (and forgiving) way would be to clean up room by room. You can always start with the messiest room or the room where you spend most of your time in. Start from the floor space, followed by your closet or your table. By combing these space section by section, you can start finding pockets of space.

You should also find time on a daily or weekly basis to do some personal hygiene tasks such as vacuuming and mopping your floor, changing your bedsheets and curtains, cleaning the surfaces that you often use like your desktop or vanity top to ensure that they are clean with minimal dust accumulation.

  1. Remove messy corners

We all have that one messy corner in our home where we would just happily leave our items there, and watch it slowly start to pile up like a mountain. Instead of that, consider clearing and wiping up the mess way before it starts to clutter. You can start by clearing up the current messy corner and make use of storage boxes to hold your small knick-knacks.

Try buying the same type of storage boxes so that if you need to stack them up in your room, it’ll be more consistent and organised looking too. You can also purchase transparent storage boxes instead of those opaque ones so that you’ll be able to find your items much easier over time without the hassle of opening each container. You should also place small labels on each storage boxes so that you can categorise them easier. Also, consider stacking the items from top to bottom according to how often you use the items. This will save you time and effort in future should you need to use the items.

  1. Declutter your room

In need of extra space to grow your personal collection, work comfortably and for your kids to play? Start your decluttering your home by first removing items which are hardly used. Once you’ve cleared these items either by throwing or donating them, you’ll be able to enjoy more space at home. With these newfound space, you’ll also be able to move furniture around to create a new vibe for your home. However, if after clearing up those unwanted items, you’re still in need of extra space for business or personal reasons, you can explore the idea of storing the bigger bulky items, seasonal items and even business items in a self-storage facility.

By storing in a self-storage facility such as Extra Space Asia, you’ll still be able to retrieve these items any time, any day as your storage unit is accessible 24/7. You can also contact the mini storage provider today at 3974 6000  to find out more about their various storage solutions for both personal and business use.

3 Simple Steps to getting your home Christmas-ready!

As we approach the holiday season, many of us would be busy preparing our home for the festivities. Despite the ongoing safe distancing measures, we can still find ways to bask in the joy of the holidays. If you’re planning to host your family and friends at home, here are 3 steps to guide you through your prep.

  1. Declutter and clean up your home

Your first step is to clean up and declutter your living space. By going through the decluttering process, you might also be able to create extra space for your gathering sessions to sit and chill. You can start this process with your living room, dining area and kitchen as these will be the main gathering areas. Take this opportunity to go through your closets and cupboards and throw or donate items that you no longer need.

If you’re in need of more space at home, you can also explore the option of storing your personal collection, family items or even home furnishing and festive items that you hardly use in a storage unit. Storage providers such as Extra Space Asia Self Storage provides flexible storage terms where you can store as short as 14 days to as long as you need. They also have a wide range of storage sizes to choose from, so you’ll only be paying for the storage space you need.

  1. Clear before stocking up your fridge

Before you stock up your fridge with party essentials, clear all the expired and soon-to-expire items to make more space. For the leftover items, place them in different clear containers so that they will look more organised in your fridge. You’ll also have a clearer idea of what you have at a glance. Use baking soda and water to clean and remove any stains in your fridge. Simply sprinkle some baking soda onto a damp sponge to wipe your entire fridge. To further improve your fridge efficiency, you can also try to organise and reduce the amount of items on the top shelf and try to cool the hot food items before placing them in your fridge.

Once these are done, your fridge will start to look more presentable for your guests. You’ll also have more space to stock up on seasonal goodies.

  1. Spruce up the main guest area with decorations

The festive season is the time for you to flaunt all your decorations at home. Once you’re done with the decluttering process, you’ll be able to find pockets of space for your festive decorations and Christmas tree. Remember to prepare supplies such as table cloths, foodwares, dining sets, wine glasses to set the mood for Christmas feast.

Here’s a bonus home tip: before your guests arrive, light up some scented candles and put out small plants to purify the air. Home plants will also help to add some colours to your home.

We understand that festive celebration this year might be different due to all the safe distancing measures. However, festive and holiday seasons are also made for heart-warming get-togethers with our family and loved ones. Therefore, it’s always nice to find ways to celebrate Christmas and the festive season with them.

Self-Storage in Hong Kong: Why the cheapest option may not be ideal for you

Self-storage or mini storage are essentials that most staying in Hong Kong would need. Having a self-storage would come in handy during a home renovation, or when you are in between moving homes or starting a business. Before choosing a preferred storage provider, most people will usually ask the following common questions:

  1. Where is your storage facility?
  2. What is your cheapest storage unit?
  3. Do you have a price list of all your storage units?

It seems that most customers prioritise cost and expenses of renting a storage unit. However, does it mean that you should simply choose the cheapest Hong Kong storage facility? The answer is a resounding NO, and here is the breakdown on 5 more important factors that you should take note of besides the price of a storage unit.

  1. FSD Compliance

We cannot stress the importance of choosing an FSD-compliant self-storage provider. This should be the most important factor that you should take note of when choosing a storage provider. By being FSD-compliant, the storage facility will be a safe place for you to store your precious items as it is compliant to the fire safety regulation and laws as indicated by the Hong Kong government. When choosing an FSD-compliant operator like Extra Space Asia Self-Storage, you can be assured that the storage company will be present for a long time, and you do not have to worry about moving to another storage facility due to compliance issues.

  1. Security features

When you choose to store your items in a storage facility, it is important to visit the storage space physically to understand its features and overall condition. When you are viewing the storage facility, keep a lookout for security features such as CCTV monitoring as well as how you access the storage unit, be it via security cards or pin code access. There are also storage providers such as Extra Space Asia where you will see staff at the storage reception during operation hours. In this case, you will know that your items are in good hands, and you will also be able to seek help easily should you need during your move-in process or when you visit your storage unit on a daily basis.

  1. 24-hour access

Most people will usually choose to store at a storage facility that is near their homes or office spaces so that they can enjoy easy access to their items while maximising their primary working and living area. But what is the point of convenience if you cannot access your items any time you need them? This is why some facilities come with 24-hour access to their storage unit so that they can access their items or business inventory any time and day when needed.

  1. Wide range of storage sizes

Typically, a storage unit rental cost depends on how long you store and the size of your storage unit. Thus, it is important that you choose a storage size that best suits your storage needs. This is also a cost-effective measure for businesses who have just started out. After you receive a web quote, you should visit the storage unit to get a feel of how big the storage unit is and if it will be sufficient for what you need to store.

Most storage facilities offer a range of storage sizes ranging from a Locker to a Walk-in unit. Storage providers like Extra Space Asia will also provide customers with the flexibility to upsize or downsize their storage unit any time when needed. This will be useful for business owners who have just started out or in the midst of expanding their businesses.

  1. Storage duration

When you rent a storage unit, it can be either for short term or long-term purposes. If you are planning to renovate your home or in the midst of transiting into a new home, you will only need a storage unit for a short period of time. In such cases, you can choose Extra Space Asia Self-Storage, which is one of few storage providers who provides storage rental for as short as 14 days storage! If you need a long-term storage space to store your family items, seasonal items, sporting equipment and hobby collection, it is key to find a storage space which is FSD-compliant too so that you can store long-term without any worries!

In conclusion, it is important that customers do not just choose the cheapest self-storage to store their items. You should always look at these other 5 factors and choose a self-storage provider that provides a secure place to store all your personal and business items safely in both long- and short-term use. This will give all give you peace of mind knowing that your stored items are in safe hands. If you have more enquiries about the different storage services, feel free to call us at 3974 6000 and our Customer Service Executives will glad to assist you further.

Before doing any renovation work such as the painting of walls or revamping the interior design, it is always good to cover your home furnishing and items with a waterproof cover to protect them from any damage, dust or paint.

For families, they can store those home furnishing or family items that are hardly used but too precious to throw away.

  1. Moving and relocating

Relocating is never an easy task, whether it is to relocate to another home or to relocate to another country. It can be a stressful process as one plan on where to store their items, which moving companies to engage and many other items.

If you are downsizing your home or relocating to another country, you will have to choose what items to bring to the next location and whether you have enough space in the new location. In this case, you might face the issue of needing extra space to store items that will not be moved to the new location. In such cases, it is important that you find a safe and secure storage space as this will give you greater peace of mind.

What is self-storage and how businesses can benefit from it?

The terms self-storage and mini-storage are common for most living in Hong Kong. Self-storage primarily provides extra storage space for families and businesses to store their personal, family and even business items. With this extra space, they can now enjoy more room in their home and office space. That is why not only families and businesses can benefit from using self-storage. If you own a business, here are three benefits to look forward to when you rent a self-storage unit with Extra Space Asia.

Similar to setting up a business easily by using the Company Registry, business owners can expect an effortless move-in procedure when you rent a mini storage unit at self-storage providers like Extra Space Asia. All you have to do for a start is to visit a preferred storage facility during operating hours for a tour. During the facility tour, you will be able to figure out the right unit for your storage needs. If you are happy with the storage size, simply sign up and start moving!

One important factor to note when choosing your self-storage company is to always store with an FSD-approved storage facility.

Unlike big warehouse storage and office leases where you are locked in for a specific rental duration of one year or more, the rental duration of a storage unit is more flexible. For self-storage companies like Extra Space Asia, customers can choose to store from as short as 14 days to as long as needed. In this case, businesses do not have to worry about long-term operation costs or the need to break the fixed rental contract just to downsize the business.

Besides the flexible storage duration, customers are also able to downsize or upsize their storage unit anytime. If your business needs more inventory to keep up with the growing demand, you can just let our Customer Service Officer know, and we will find you the next suitable storage unit to fit all your extra inventory. If your business is moving slower than usual and you need more cash flow, you can also downsize your storage unit and pay for only the storage space you require. These flexible storage terms are beneficial to SMEs, especially during this volatile COVID-19 period.

  1. 24-hour access to your air-conditioned storage unit

By storing at self-storage companies like Extra Space Asia, you will have the freedom of round-the-clock access to your air-conditioned storage unit. All you have to do is to key in your unique PIN code, and you will be able to access the storage unit. This is important for businesses as it enables owners and operators to boost efficiency without being affected by the operating hours of a storage facility.

All storage units at Extra Space Asia are air-conditioned. This means inventory management tasks such as packing or stock checks will definitely be more comfortable. If you need some working space for paperwork, you can do so at our Extra Space Sai Wan facility where we provide some workspaces for customers to use.
