Why Holiday Storage Makes Life Easier

Self storage isn’t just about space—it’s about simplifying the way you live year-round. With a dedicated holiday storage unit at Express Storage, you can:

  • Keep decorations safe from damage, dust, and pests

  • Free up closets, attics, and garages at home

  • Store large or oddly-shaped décor that doesn’t fit in bins

  • Enjoy faster setup and easier cleanup for every holiday

No more climbing over piles or repacking boxes that don’t fit. Your décor stays sorted, labeled, and protected until you’re ready to celebrate again.


What to Store After the Holidays

Once the festivities wind down, pack away anything seasonal so your home feels fresh and open again. Common holiday storage items include:

  • Artificial trees, wreaths, and garlands

  • String lights, extension cords, and timers

  • Fragile ornaments, heirlooms, and family keepsakes

  • Lawn inflatables, yard signs, and holiday figurines

  • Party supplies like serving platters, folding chairs, and table linens

With drive-up access and wide lanes, dropping everything off at Express Storage takes just a few minutes.


How to Rotate Decorations Between Holidays

One of the best perks of having a holiday storage unit is the ability to swap decorations seamlessly from one season to the next. Instead of digging through mixed bins or crowding your garage year-round, you can create a simple, rotating system:

1. Label by Holiday or Season

Use clear plastic bins and label them “Spring,” “Halloween,” “Thanksgiving,” “Christmas,” and so on. Color-coded lids (orange for fall, red for winter, etc.) make it even easier.

2. Keep the Next Holiday Up Front

When you return decorations from one holiday, place them toward the back of your unit and move the next season’s décor to the front. You’ll always have what you need ready to go.

3. Create a Swap Calendar

Each season, schedule a quick storage visit—drop off décor you’re done with, pick up what’s next. It turns what used to be a weekend of chaos into a 20-minute routine.

4. Include a Multi-Holiday Box

Keep year-round staples (extension cords, small hooks, timers, storage bags) together in one labeled bin near the front of your unit so you’re never hunting for them.

With a little organization, you can transform holiday turnover into a fast, stress-free tradition that keeps your home clean all year.


Packing Tips to Protect Your Décor

Protecting your décor properly saves money and stress later.

  • Use ornament boxes or egg cartons to separate fragile items.

  • Wrap lights around cardboard or reels to prevent tangles.

  • Seal bins tightly to block dust and moisture.

  • Stack heavier boxes on the bottom and lighter ones on top.

  • Opt for climate-controlled units to protect candles, fabrics, and delicate keepsakes.


Hide Gifts and Host with Ease

Need to hide a big present from curious eyes? A storage unit is the ultimate secret spot. Store large gifts like bicycles, playsets, or furniture until it’s time for the big reveal.
