You know you need a self-storage unit when.....

1. ...your husband notices that your shared closet no longer has room for his clothes.

2. ...grandchildren get upset because their "toy closet" now has only one shelf. The rest of the space is taken up with Grandma's stuff!

3. ...you keep your holiday decorations up all year because there is no place to store them. This is not so bad, until you find yourself combining Christmas, Halloween, and Easter! O, what a tangled web we weave when we put bunnies and bats on our Christmas trees.

4. ...relatives come to visit and have to share sleeping quarters with prized magazines, lovely old jars, "vintage" clothing, and the odds and ends that you know will come in handy someday.

5. ...you discover your spare room has become a walk-in closet.

6. ...your grown children point out that it would be nice to visit without having to sidestep around so much STUFF.

7. ...you find yourself on the verge of giving away something you would prefer to keep, a potential family heirloom, perhaps.
