It’s a good feeling when you finally take the plunge, and move in with your person.

But what stock photos of joyous couples won’t tell you is how much of a logistical nightmare cohabitation can actually be. Take a moment to consider that cohabitation amounts to essentially halving the amount of space that you and your possessions are used to. Something’s got to give, and invariably you’ll be forced to sell possessions that you love, because someone stole your heart, and your cupboard space. Unless, of course, you have cheap storage close to your new place.

Obviously you’re laughing to yourself at this point, because “cheap storage close to your place” doesn’t exist. Storage close to your place exists, alright. But it isn’t cheap. Cheap storage also exists, but it’s in Kraaifontein.

Which is why you must sit down when you find out now that Stor-Age is affordable, in town (and a variety of other locations) completely automated, and costs R1 for your first month.

So you know, don’t sell the kayak. Store that badboy. Maybe access your household storage unit on your own terms at any hour of the day to take him out for a paddle. Goodness knows it’d be better to have it around if the relationship tanks after two years.

Check out Stor-Age here, and pay only R1 on your first month of storage, with absolutely no obligation.
