Christmas is *so* nearly here, and if you're hosting family or friends in Cornwall, you're probably feeling it already... Extra coats on every chair, suitcases in the hallway, spare bedding coming out your ears - and that's before we even mention the presents!

If your home is starting to feel more like Santa's Grotto rather than a cosy space to relax this December, don't panic. A little last-minute storage can make hosting over the Christmas period a whole lot easier for you, and your guests!

When the guests are coming (and the space isn't!) 

Whether it's relatives visiting Cornwall from afar, or friends escaping the city for some fresh sea air and festive walks, extra guests usually always mean extra stuff! Think:

-Suitcase, travel bags and toiletries galore
-Coats, boots, scarves and winter gear draped on every bannister
-Extra bedding, blow-up beds and pillows
-Prams, buggies and sacks of gifts

Instead of cramming everything into spare rooms (if you still have them!), a short-term self-storage unit gives you the breathing space you need - quite literally!

Store what you don't need (just for now)

One of the easiest ways to create space quickly is to store non-essential items for a few weeks - better yet, get it done before any guests even step through the door! We're talking:
-Summer furniture and garden items
-Bikes, surfboards and paddleboards (unless you fancy a New Year's Day dip that is!)
-Home office equipment if you're off work for the holidays
-Paperwork or clutter you've been meaning to sort but haven't got around to
-Non-festive decor that can wait until January

By clearing space temporarily, your home instantly feels calmer, more organised and MUCH more welcoming for your guests. 

A secret spot for Christmas presents

Got gifts hidden everywhere and scared of who might find them? Kids (and adults!) are surprisingly good at sniffing them out, even in the secretest of spots... A storage unit is a brilliant place to:
-Keep gifts completely hidden and out of sight
-Store bulky presents (bikes, hampers, large toys etc)
-Protect electronics or more delicate items in a dry, climate-controlled space

No more panicking every time someone opens a cupboard they shouldn't!

Perfect for short-term, stress-free storage

At M-Store Self-Storage lots of our customers use storage just for the festive season - whether that's a few weeks or even a couple of months. It's an ideal solution if:
-You only need space for a short period of time
-You're hosting over Christmas but want your home comforts back afterwards
-You're planning on having a post-Christmas clear out in January anyway

With easy access, flexible unit sizes and totally secure facilities, it's a simple solution when time (and of course, space!) is tight.

Hosting made easier

Christmas should be about enjoying time with the people you love - not stepping over suitcases or stressing about space. A small storage unit can:
-Free up spare rooms
-Keep communal areas clutter-free
-Make hosting more convenient for everyone
-Reduce any additional festive chaos

And best of all? Once the decorations come down and the guests head home, you can take things back at your own pace.
