Success!
After almost two years the storage unit is empty. We started our down-sizing journey by moving lesser needed items into the unit so we could stage the house.
We sold our large house, and rented a townhouse while we searched for a one-level ranch. We found the ranch, and after painting and cleaning, finally moved in.
But the project was not truly finished until we cleaned out that unit. We rented a moving truck on Saturday and moved most of our things. We went back Sunday for the last few items, and swept the unit.
I forgot to take the official empty picture, so here is the evidence of the last of our stuff crammed into the car.
Yes, I had to hold the fan all the way home. It was very exciting when Mr. Porter drove over 45mph, and the fan picked up speed and tried to exit the car through the window. Quite an arm workout.
Most of the boxes are in the basement. Some are upstairs and I will be unpacking them this week. It will be nice to have my cookbooks back. lol.

YAH!! I know that has to feel good! We have a storage unit in KY that we have been paying on FOREVER! But we have no where to put the stuff and we can’t get rid of it! 😦 Maybe some day…

I know Courtney, it’s hard to part with our possessions sometimes. I don’t know why! I try not to think about how much money we would have if we put the money in the bank instead of a storage unit!

Now you can rediscover your “treasures” again. Congratulations on emptying the storage unit before the first of the month comes around again.

Thanks Terri! Yes it was nice not to have to pay for another month. I have found some of my books that I have missed. I also found some of my summer clothes.
