As the leaves begin to turn and the air grows crisp, it’s time to bid farewell to summer and welcome the blustery autumn days. With this seasonal shift comes the need to store away our summer equipment and prepare for the colder months ahead.
At The Self Storage Company, we understand the importance of self-storage for seasonal purposes and can ensure your belongings stay safe and secure all year round.
Why Consider Seasonal Storage Solutions?
Autumn brings a unique set of challenges when it comes to self-storage. Garden furniture, summer sports equipment, and outdoor toys need a secure space during the wet and windy months.
A self-storage unit can protect your valuable items from the elements, reduce clutter and free up precious storage space in your home or garage.
What Can I Store Over Autumn?
Our self-storage units at The Self Storage Company are ideal for storing:
- Garden Furniture and Accessories: Those lovely rattan sofas and colourful cushions that adorned your patio during summer need protection from the harsh autumn weather. Store them away to ensure they stay in top condition for next year’s al fresco dining.
- Summer Sports Equipment: Kayaks, paddleboards, and beach games can take up a significant amount of space. Keep them safe and out of the way until the sun returns.
- Outdoor Toys: Children’s paddling pools, water slides, and sandpits are best kept dry and clean during the colder months. A storage unit provides the perfect solution.
- Camping Gear: As the camping season winds down, store your tents, sleeping bags, and other outdoor equipment to prevent mould and mildew growth.
- Seasonal Clothing: Make room in your wardrobe by storing away summer clothes, sandals, and beach accessories. This allows you to easily transition to your autumn and winter wardrobe.
Preparing Your Items for Storage
Before you store your summer equipment, it’s essential to prepare them properly:
- Clean thoroughly: Remove any dirt, sand, or debris from your items.
- Dry completely: Ensure everything is dry to prevent mould growth.
- Disassemble larger items: This saves space and makes transportation easier.
- Use appropriate covers: Protect furniture with breathable covers to prevent moisture build-up. Visit our on-site box shop for a range of furniture covers and other packing materials.

The Benefits of Seasonal Storage
- Space-saving: Reclaim valuable space in your home or garage.
- Protection: Protect your belongings from harsh weather conditions.
- Organisation: Keep your seasonal items neatly stored and easily accessible.
- Flexibility: Our flexible contracts allow you to store items for as long as you need.
As we transition from summer to autumn, embrace the change by creating a cosy, clutter-free home. With your summer equipment safely stored away, you can focus on enjoying the autumn season – from crisp walks in the park to curling up with a good book by the fire.
Another benefit of seasonal storage is that you can also use a self-storage unit all year round and swap over your stored items as the season changes. Over the summer, you may choose to store your Halloween or Christmas decorations as well as any winter wear and ski equipment.
If you run a seasonal business, you can also benefit from self-storage all year round and use a secure self storage unit to keep stock and products clean, dry and secure. On the run up to Christmas, our business storage units can help you to meet demand and prepare for the festive season.
