Are you moving to a new house and can’t decide whether to sell or store your furniture? There are several benefits to both options, and we’re here to help you decide which works best for you. First things first, are you downsizing? If so, you’re likely to own too much furniture for your new space. Here’s where you need to decide the value of your items; do they possess monetary, practical, or sentimental value?

Ask yourself these questions:
Will this item physically fit within the new space?
Does it reflect the style of my new home?
Will I be able to use this furniture in years to come?
Are there any valued memories attached to this item?

If you find yourself answering yes to these questions, you should probably keep the furniture. If not, you should consider hosting a garage sale, creating an ad on Gumtree, or contacting your friends and family to recycle your furniture before the move. On the other hand, storage facilities make great options for families with large sentimental items that don’t suit the style of their new home. As selling furniture is a permanent solution, it might be best to keep your items in storage until you’re certain about your decision. Borgas Removals and Storage can hold your valued furniture for a competitive weekly price, invoiced monthly or 3-monthly, so that you can keep your items without compromising the aesthetic of your new home.
