So
you’re packing up and getting ready to roam the ends of the world, but you’ve
not yet decided on a few important details of your adventure, namely your
storage options.
The nomad lifestyle is that of a true minimalist. You’ll
probably not need more than a few clothes and some personal care items all the
way. However, what happens when you come across some relics you’d love to own?
A few souvenirs to take home? No worries, our guide to digital nomad storage
will help you deal with the dilemma.
Planning your Storage
Your nomad lifestyle will present a very
different set of storage challenges compared to your normal life. Here’s what
to consider when planning for your nomad storage
What to store?
Obviously, you’ll need to store your survival essentials – your personal care items,
clothing, etc. But you may be tempted to bring other non-essentials. When considering these, ask yourself whether
it’s something you could rent or buy at your destination, so you don’t have to
bring it all the way.
How long to store?
Your
movement plans will determine how long you need to store your belongings at any
location, and this in turn determines the appropriate storage options. If
you’d want to leave certain belongings behind while you’re off visiting other
places, it might be best to rent a storage unit for the time you’ll be gone.
Do you need special
storage solutions?
If
you have frail items, you might need to
consider storage options more carefully. Speak with your local Storage King on how to best store these items.

ubiquitous, so you’re sure to find a Storage King nearby.

storage unit and use it as a receiving address for your packages.
