Hurricane season is here and many on the East Coast are making preparations to evacuate. Men and women know they need to have emergency supplies in this situation, but a natural disaster of any type can strike at any given moment. People may have an emergency kit at home for these situations, but what happens when the person cannot get home? Where will they turn to get the essentials? Blair Self Storage is a great place to keep an emergency supply away from home for use in a crisis.
Floods
While many parts of the country don’t regularly experience floods, they can and do happen. All it takes is a significant amount of rain in a short period of time to leave roads impassable and people stranded. When this occurs, a person needs to ensure they have access to not only clothes and food, but also to essentials such as prescription medications. A storage unit is a great place to keep items of this type for use during a flood, and the small units are very affordable. This allows everyone to keep the basics in multiple locations.
Tornados
Strong storms often come with tornados, and the devastation that may occur in a matter of minutes is heartbreaking. Imagine finding out everything has been lost and the family has to start over once again. Fortunately, when a family has items stored in a unit, they don’t have to completely rebuild. They know they have the essentials to get them through the first few days following the catastrophe so they can get on their feet again and make a plan for the future. The peace of mind that a family gets knowing they have these items in storage is priceless.

The ideas are truly endless, and individuals find they can have the living space they need without paying a fortune to do so. Don’t assume these units are simply for storing items that aren’t used regularly or for holding items in anticipation of a move. These units are so much more than that today.
