Atlanta’s top decking contractors do much more than design and build amazing decks; think striking porches and bridges, unique arbors and pergolas, and sturdy custom sheds.
Do you have too much “stuff” and not enough storage space? Have you considered renting a storage unit or adding a shed to your property? Read on for a comparison of the two options.
Deciding Between a Shed and Storage Unit? Consider These Factors
- Cost
While costs vary by storage facility and unit size, the average is about $90 a month. You may incur extra expenses like insurance and late fees. Comparatively, our sheds, hand-built by our decking contractors, are typically covered by your homeowner’s insurance.
- Convenience
You only need to walk a few steps to access items when you need them. When you use a storage unit, it often leads to an out-of-sight, out-of-mind scenario. A shed is ideal for sports equipment, garden tools, holiday decorations, and more. This is especially helpful for seasonal items that you only use at specific times throughout the year.
- Versatility
Storage sheds not only help you stay organized and manage your belongings, but they can also be used in a variety of ways. For example, if over time you discard items in the shed, you can re-purpose the shed as a gardening workstation, home office, crafts room, and more. A storage unit has one purpose—storing your items—and provides no extra value for the expense.
- Custom Design
Seize the opportunity to add an attractive and functional space to your yard. Are you a closet writer, artist, seamstress, or another creative soul with limited space? You may have dreamed of a mini-office or studio; a perfect, quiet space just to get away from it all. Don’t look further than your backyard for such an oasis. Imagine a retreat just steps from your back door. Our decking contractors can complete your shed with windows, a shingled roof, and even flower boxes.
- Great Hiding Place for Unattractive Possessions
We all have functional and necessary items that are unattractive: lawnmowers, garden tools, etc. Rather than banishing them to a storage unit that requires a separate trip to retrieve them, locate them in your shed.
