As September rolls in, the Cowichan Valley starts to shift gears. Boats get pulled from the water, RVs return from summer road trips, and garages fill up fast with seasonal gear. This is when local storage becomes not just convenient, but essential.
Whether you’re in Duncan, Cowichan Bay, Maple Bay, or Lake Cowichan, here are a few smart ways to use storage this fall.
1. Store Summer Gear Before the Rain Starts
Camping equipment, paddleboards, bicycles, and outdoor furniture all take up space — and most of them don’t fare well in the wet season. Storing them off-site gives you back your garage or carport while keeping everything clean and protected.
2. Prep for a Smooth Fall Cleanup
Fall is also a time for transition. Lawn tools, hoses, and gardening gear can be stored in one place until spring. At the same time, you can make room for winter tires, snow shovels, and other seasonal tools you’ll be needing soon.
3. Use Storage While You Renovate or Rearrange
Many homeowners use the cooler fall months to do light remodeling, interior upgrades, or home reorganizing. A short-term storage unit makes it easy to move furniture out of the way while keeping everything accessible when you’re done.
4. RV and Boat Parking Now Available with Promo
If you’ve brought your RV or boat back from summer travel or time on the water, Storage HQ offers outdoor parking in three stall sizes:
- 12×25
- 12×35
- 12×50
Each stall includes 24/7 access, keypad gate entry, and new security cameras now live throughout the property.
