UNITS Atlanta Owners Featured in The Wall Street Journal

A New White-Collar Juggle

 Following is an excerpt:

"When job demands clash, moonlighters' day jobs win. Stefanie and Craig Miller both work for the same big company, she as a customer-marketing vice president, and Mr. Miller as a senior logistics executive. For much of the past two years, the Atlanta couple has worked nights and weekends starting a Units mobile-storage business on the side to avoid having "all our eggs in one basket," Ms. Miller says.

 They use almost all their vacation time to attend trade shows and other events. When Ms. Miller was called on unexpectedly on a vacation day to make a presentation at her day job, she had to scramble to find someone to cover her planned appearance at a trade show. Mr. Miller sometimes makes storage-unit deliveries after work, driving the truck as late as 1 a.m. On weekends, he sometimes takes his two older children, 9 and 7, along on deliveries."

Smart Storage Ideas When Remodeling or Renovating

When renovating or remodeling your home it is important to make sure all of your belongings are safe from damage and stored securely. Renovating can be a stressful time - especially when you are preparing to sell your home in a tough market, expanding for a family member, or hoping to increase the value of your house. You certainly don't need any additional concerns about moving your furniture and important possessions and that's where portable storage comes in.



UNITS Portable Storage offers an easy way to store your treasured items quickly and efficiently. A container can be dropped off at your home and remain there for as long as the renovation process takes. Constructed of galvanized steel and reinforced fiberglass, these portable storage containers are designed to be U/V, mold and water resistant.


If you don't want the container to stay on your property there are other options as well. For instance, if you would prefer, the storage unit can be moved to a temporary place of residency or stored in the secure, temperature-controlled (A/C and heat) UNITS Portable Storage warehouse.


Some of the items you might think about storing in a mobile container to ensure they do not get damaged include:


-Bedroom furniture or mattresses: Plastic covers are available to protect your mattresses while being stored in the container.


-Couches, chairs, or anything with upholstery: Furniture with fabric can be easily damaged by debris, paint or other items, if left in the house.


-Heavy items such as entertainment centers and appliances: These need to be moved out of the way so they don't impede work flow.


-Small valuables like decorations, knick-knacks, and pictures: Inside the container there is an E-track system, which allows you to safely secure your belongings to the side walls. This is especially necessary if you decide to move the container.


In conclusion, remember to keep UNITS Portable Storage in mind when preparing for a remodel or renovation to your home. Choosing portable storage over a storage facility can prove to be a lot easier on your wallet and your busy schedule.

Portable Storage Tip: Choose Secure Strapping System

When you compare portable storage companies, be sure to ask if there is a mechanism for securing your treasured belongings during transit. This is a critcal question to ask. You'll want an integrated channel strapping system to safely secure your fine furniture and belongings to the sides of the container for safekeeping during transit. Some companies merely offer eyehooks, or worse yet, nothing at all.


As you consider who you will choose to move your cherished possessions, remember it pays to think twice about quality and reliability.

Portable Storage Tip: Choose Air-Conditioned Warehouse

When comparing portable storage companies be sure to ask if they have a secure, temperature-controlled warehouse. That means a warehouse with both A/C and heat. This is extremely important if you plan to store your container in a warehouse for any part of your rental, especially during the most severe seasons (e.g. summer and winter) when you want to ensure your belongings are free of humidity and the extreme outdoor elements. And, with record heat in Hotlanta this summer, it's the only way to go. Some companies offer what is often called a “climate-controlled” warehouse, but that typically means heat only. Ask for specifics. And, some mobile storage providers don’t even offer traditional warehouses, but rather outdoor lots.

As you consider who you will choose to move and store your cherished belongings, remember it pays to think twice about quality and reliability.
