Realtors will tell you one of the primary reasons people move is they feel they have “out grown” their current home. There is not enough storage space; the closets are too small; the garage doesn’t have enough shelves. In most cases, unless, of course, you and your significant other had just had triplets, it is an acquisition and organization issue and not a lack of space.

Nature, and home owners, hates a vacuum. You will continue to acquire items which require storage or take up shelf space until there is no more space available. Instead of going to the trouble of throwing a few things away or organizing better, many people will simply move to a larger house. At first it is spacious, with abundant closets, shelves everywhere and nooks and crannies for storage of precious person items.

In a few years that expansive, storage rich home will be just as crowded as their old house… just with more stuff that requires storage and takes up more shelf space.

Fortunately, many very clever people have come up with ingenious storage solutions that are both practical and affordable.
