We’ve been fed a huge lie — that the stuff in our storage rooms or storage units is worth money. It’s not! The truth is, your “storage treasures” are probably costing you thousands of dollars and stealing valuable space in your home. I’m sharing my own story of how I turned a cluttered storage room into a home office, added $15,000 of value to my house, and never missed a single thing I let go of.
You’ll learn how to figure out what your storage is really costing you, the mindset traps that keep us holding on to stuff “just in case,” and my simple decluttering rules to help you decide what’s actually worth keeping. I also talk about why “preservation becomes paralysis” — and how freeing yourself from storage clutter can literally give you more time, money, and peace of mind.

No storage room in the house. My husband has crap in the shed, and it doesn't affect me.
No storage unit and I can’t think of anyone I know with one either. But I wonder if it’s bc houses are bigger now. My husbands side of the family all have a pretty big room dedicated to storage in their house. Plus their garage… attics.. and some even have a shop as well with storage. So if it wasn’t for all that, I’m sure they’d be paying for a storage unit.
My husband has a storage unit ($70/month), a shed full of stuff at my parent's house, things on his parent's property, a storage closet in our basement, a truck he rarely uses that holds a bunch of his things, junk piled in our yard, and the garage at our house is 90% his stuff. He doesn't see an issue with any of this. 🤦🏼♀️
Just ❤ you because it's real.
No paid storage and no storage room… but a few overflowing wardrobes… that I am working on and chucking about two huge garbage bags full of garbage per week… and I still don't see the end in sight…
Only 50…. Including Alaska and Hawaii. Territories like the Philippines don’t count!! 😂😊 I love you!! ❤
No storage units. Don't want the expense.
Unfortunately we have a storage unit and I’ve been wanting to take everything out and get rid of it. Also, my mom has rooms for guests. We barely have guests. If we didn’t have beds, we could have our stuff there but okay. $75 a month.
I have a storage unit, in 2021 when my dad passed I moved from my 3 bedroom home(I was single) but my house had an office with big desk and guest room, my mom and dad had downsized to a 2 bedroom condo so it was a D, but it was DEATH of a loved one. I started out paying 90 bucks a month in 2022 and over a short few years it has gone up to $175…my 2026 goal is to get rid of it and most of the stuff
