    Students have a lot to worry about at the end of the academic year.

    All those nights out partying, which meant missed lectures and late assignments, now ends with the final push and exams.

    If you’re in residence, you probably haven’t even started thinking about what happens when you have to pack up your room and find somewhere to leave your stuff before you head home for the holidays.

    It’s a hassle, but the sooner you make a plan, the sooner you can clear out and get to celebrating another year of studying ticked off.

    Firstly, travelling with all your belongings is not going to work. Have you ever tried flying on Kulula with a bar fridge? Not ideal.

    Option number two is to store it at a friend’s place, but they aren’t going to thank you for the additional clutter over the festive season.

    Which leaves self-storage, which is actually a really convenient, affordable, and flexible option for students.

    Stor-Age is running a special for students who want to store their stuff over the holidays.

    Along with a 10% discount on your self-storage, each student who stores with Stor-Age also gets access to a van at the special price of R100 per trip.

    The van will come straight to your digs or residence to transport your belongings to your chosen Stor-Age facility, meaning your only job is to pack and unpack your items into and out of the van.

    If you need packaging, they’ve also got you covered. All Stor-Age stores stock supplies like boxes and tape which you can purchase at an affordable price. At the moment, they are offering a deal where when you buy eight boxes, you get two for free. Winning.

    Here are some handy tips for packing up:

    • Chat to your friends about sharing a self-storage unit. This can cut down costs significantly. They come in a variety of sizes so you can rent one that fits all of your and their stuff.
    • Create an inventory list of all of your items for storage and another list for the items that you want to take home.
    • Make sure that your belongings are clean before packing them away – especially a fridge or a microwave.
    • Label all your boxes to make unpacking easier in the new year.
    • Disassemble any large items so that they’re easier to move or store.

    To claim the student discount present your student card at one of the 50 Stor-Age stores across South Africa.

    It’s the easiest way to ensure safe, secure storage of all your belongings.

    Then all that’s left to do is get through the exams, pack up, and enjoy a well-deserved break.

    A reminder, too, that 2oceansvibe readers get 50% off their first month’s storage at Stor-Age.
