Using a Drybox for Your Remodeling Project
Remodeling can be a fun and exciting experience as you envision a new future for you home. However, the process of planning ahead and deciding what you want can be overwhelming at the same time. This raises the possibility of certain aspects and preparations getting overlooked. In this article, we’ll cover some important considerations when remodeling, and we’ll discuss the ways that renting a Drybox can help make the process smoother.
When is it Time to Get Your Home Remodeled?
Whether you’ve just moved into a new home or you’ve lived there for a while, the space you live in should always be a reflection of your personality and match your desired aesthetic. For example, if you’re someone that enjoys socialization or has a big family (especially when there are little ones to keep an eye on), then you’d probably enjoy an open floor plan.
If you’re someone that values a lot of privacy, on the other hand, then that probably wouldn’t be an ideal layout for you. Your comfort and happiness should be a top priority but, unfortunately, finding a home that already fits your taste to a T can be virtually impossible. That’s just one of the many reasons that your home may be due for a remodel.
Trending home design styles fade in and out seemingly at the drop of a hat, but that doesn’t mean you need to remodel your home every time in order to keep up with those trends, as long as you’re happy with the way your home is. That being said, experts recommend getting your house remodeled or renovated every 15-20 years (depending on the condition of the home).
If your home’s condition starts to decline and you notice signs that everything may not be in working order, that’s one of the surest signs you need a home remodel. These signs can include things like leaking or burst pipes, indications of mold or water damage, and cracks in the floors, ceilings, walls, etc. These signs can also lead to further damage in your home if not dealt with.
Changes in your lifestyle can also be a reason for remodeling, renovating, or expanding your home. The most common instance of this is when someone has a new child (or children) and finds that as they grow up the space that worked well for them before is no longer enough. Alternatively, a lot of people have started working from home lately, which caused them to see the need for a home office.
The Benefits of using DryBox for your Remodeling Project
A surprising number of people fail to consider the fact that they’ll need to move any appliances, furniture, and other items out of the space before it can start undergoing construction. Therefore, they forget to look for somewhere to temporarily store these things ahead of time, which causes them to have to rush around and find a place (which often leads to overpaying.)
In addition, there will be certain stages during the construction or remodeling of a home during which it is vital for certain building materials to be stored in a secured and dry location, but having to transport them back and forth can draw out the time it takes. Luckily, there is a solution for both the builders and the homeowners. From materials like lumber and insulation to your household appliances, a DryBox storage container could be the perfect solution.
DryBox buys shipping containers directly from shipping lines and either sell them or puts them up to be rented short-term by people in need (like those getting a home remodeled) in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Utah, Nevada, and Wyoming. DryBox shipping containers can be delivered and offloaded wherever you request. In most cases, same-day drop-off can even be an option.
An on-site storage container gives you somewhere to keep your home’s appliances, furniture, and other objects until the construction company finishes up its work. If you don’t want the container to remain on-site during the process, you can place everything inside and request to have it loaded onto a flatbed and transported to a secondary location. Of course, keeping it on-site is also a valid option.
DryBox vs Traditional Storage Facilities
You may be asking yourself, “Why wouldn’t I just use a normal storage facility?”, which is an understandable question. The simple answer is that traditional storage facilities will cost you more money per square foot than a DryBox storage container, not to mention they’re far less convenient and aren’t always available for last-minute storage. Traditional storage facilities can’t be delivered right to you like a DryBox storage container can, which means you would have to worry about the cost, stress, and time it takes to transport your items back and forth. In the end, DryBox is simply the best and easiest option — but don’t take it from us, check out our customer reviews!
How to Rent or Buy a DryBox Storage Container
When it comes to short-term storage needs, renting a DryBox is a quick and easy solution, but there are also many reasons that you may want to buy one and keep it forever. They could even be modified to function as extra rooms that your home doesn’t have. For example, some people have used them as portable concession stands, makeshift tool shed, mobile office, a greenhouse, or even full-blown (tiny) house of their own. The possibilities are virtually endless, and DryBox offers any shipping container modifications you might need.
