As the days get shorter and the summer gear starts to gather dust, it’s the perfect time to reset your space. Fall is when many Cowichan Valley residents turn their attention to cleaning up, reorganizing, and getting ahead before winter hits.
Whether you’re packing away patio furniture, stashing camping gear, or prepping your RV for off-season storage, a self storage unit in Duncan can make a noticeable difference.
Why Fall Is the Ideal Time to Declutter
Fall acts as a natural reset. With the return of school and more structured schedules, it becomes easier to evaluate what you need and what can be stored away for now.
Here’s why decluttering in the fall is a smart move:
- More time indoors: Clean, open spaces feel better when you’re spending more time inside.
- Gear rotation: Summer items like lawn tools and water toys can be stored away to make room for winter essentials.
- Holiday readiness: Start early to create space before decorations and family visits start piling up.
What to Store This Fall
Thinking about renting a storage unit in Cowichan? These are the most common fall items our customers put into storage:
✅ Outdoor Furniture & Equipment
Wipe down and store your patio chairs, garden tools, and BBQ gear to keep them in good shape for next year.
✅ Camping & Recreation Gear
Tents, paddleboards, kayaks, and coolers take up space. Give them a dry, secure home until next season.
✅ RVs and Boats
If you’re not using your RV or boat year-round, this is the time to prep for long-term storage. We offer outdoor parking with sizes suited to all types of recreational vehicles and trailers.
✅ Summer Clothing and Toys
Beach towels, umbrellas, and outdoor toys can be packed away so they’re not crowding closets and bins.
