6 Ways Self Storage in Lawton is Helping Millennials

Depending on how you do your math, there are more than 80 million Millennials (here defined as those who were born between 1981 and 1996) in America right now. They’re in the workforce, graduating from college, buying things, and, of course, many of them own homes. In fact, around 35% of Millennials own their own homes already, and millions of others are just entering the years of peak household formation. What does that mean? Among other things, it means that Millennials need storage space.

After all, home ownership comes with clutter. No matter how big your house is, it probably isn’t big enough to keep all your stuff, and it’s definitely not big enough to store things the way you want to store them. That’s why self storage in Lawton from Storage ‘R’ Us offers self storage solutions that suit your needs, so that you can store your stuff how you want to store it. 

Help with the clutter. Let’s face it, clutter is stressful. While the big movement toward decluttering may be relatively new, people of every generation have come to the conclusion that having too much stuff lying around detracts from your enjoyment of life, rather than adding to it. Many people have even taken the minimalist movement a step farther and embraced life in tiny houses, where storage space is really at a premium.

But even if you just want to cut down on clutter in your living space, self storage in Lawton can help immensely. After all, just because you don’t have room for something doesn’t necessarily mean you’re ready to let it go, especially if it’s something with sentimental value or something that was handed down in your family.

Keep your options open. These days, we’re accustomed to having a lot of choices about where we shop, what we buy, and so on. When it comes to self storage, that means more than just choices about location; it means options in how you pay, what kind of security you can expect, and the storage solution that you choose. At Storage ‘R’ Us, we’ve got self storage options to fit all your needs, and you can do whatever suits your lifestyle and budget: pay online, put a card on file, or pay in advance.

Ultimately, when you put your stuff into self storage in Lawton, you expect convenience, security, and peace of mind. Storage ‘R’ Us has all of the above. With three convenient locations in Lawton—not to mention other locations throughout Oklahoma—there’s bound to be a Storage ‘R’ Us location that’s close to you. All of our locations offer the security and ease-of-use that you demand.

Available 24/7. Part of keeping your options open means being able to get to your stuff when you need it. After all, Millennials are more mobile than any previous generation. They’re used to doing things on the go, including changing jobs more frequently than previous generations and moving more often to be closer to their work or families or simply to find better or more affordable housing. In fact, Millennials experience these kinds of major life transitions approximately three times more frequently than Baby Boomers or Gen Xers. And of course, these days, everyone is used to being online and on the go day or night.

Part of being mobile means having your stuff available to you when you need it. That’s why self storage in Lawton from Storage ‘R’ Us has gated access that puts your stuff at your fingertips 24/7, while still providing the security you need to sleep well at night (or whenever you sleep). We can also provide staging space that can help you with a move, keeping your belongings safe and out of the way while you stage or sell your house or until you’re ready to move into the new place.
