Oklahoma Self Storage for the Dedicated Hobbyist

Everyone needs a hobby. In fact, hobbies have been shown to help you relax, improve your mood, and lower stress. That’s probably why about 75% of people report having at least one hobby to occupy their free time. You never want your hobby to take up so much of your space at home that it becomes a burden, though. That’s where self storage in Oklahoma comes in. When your excess hobby supplies or equipment are out of the house and out of the way, you’ll have less work to do, and you can enjoy your hobby even more.

Just about every hobby comes with excess stuff that can be tucked away in self storage, but here are a few hobbies that might benefit most, simply because they often take up a lot of space:

Scuba Diving – You might not normally think about a scuba hobby in Oklahoma, but Lake Tenkiller and Broken Bow Lake both offer great diving. Whether you’re diving locally or jaunting off to the Bahamas, a lot of gear goes into a proper dive, from drysuits to snorkels. You’ll need someplace to keep everything safe, sound, and out of the way.

Mountain Climbing – Again, you might be surprised to learn that there’s some good climbing in Oklahoma, especially in the Wichita Mountains. A mountain climber needs plenty of gear, such as packs, carabiners, rope, and harnesses. Climbers also need something else: a place to keep all that gear so that it’s ready to go when the mountain beckons.

Golf – Golf is an extremely popular sport all over the United States, and you’ll find golf courses just about everywhere you go. If you want to take up the sport, though, you’ll need clubs, and there are quite a few different options out there. Once you start getting clubs, odds are you’ll get more. If you get really into the sport, you can even use Oklahoma vehicle storage to store your golf carts, too.

Ice Sculpting – Climate controlled self storage is impressive, but it’s not quite so impressive that you can store your ice. The chainsaws and other power tools that you need for ice sculpting, though, can absolutely find a home in your storage unit.

Hot Air Ballooning – There are hobbies that take up a lot of space and then there’s hot air ballooning. Hot air balloons are big things, after all, and they aren’t the only gear that goes into the hobby. Even if you’re not storing the balloon itself, ballooning comes with plenty of other stuff that can be put out of the way in your Oklahoma self storage unit. Just don’t store the propane tanks.

Model Trains – Surveys of spouses all across the country have found that this is the number-one hobby that causes contention due to the space it takes up. It makes sense. Model railroads can quickly grow to dominate more than even just a single room. There’s the model itself, and then there’s all the gear that’s needed to make, assemble, power, and paint it. Fortunately, you can always move your H0 scale rail empire to self storage.

Restoring Classic Cars – When it comes to spouses being unhappy about the space a hobby takes up, classic cars come right behind model trains. This one makes sense, too. While your project car is probably out in the garage instead of in the living room, it can still dominate a lot of domestic space. Move it into Oklahoma vehicle storage, and you’ll have a place to work while reclaiming your garage for the car you actually drive every day.

Woodworking – Woodworking involves a lot of tools, whether you’re just doing some simple carving or turning out whole pieces of furniture. Of course, you need someplace to store all the wonderful things that you’ve made along with the ones that didn’t turn out so well.

These are just a few of the many hobbies that can benefit from climate controlled self storage. If you’ve got a beloved pastime that’s taking up too much of your space, all you need to do is reach out to Storage ‘R’ Us.
