Financially Surviving the Child Rearing Years

19th Septmber 2011

With 2.4 children still being the norm in UK households, trying to survive the child rearing years can be costly. Not only do you have to kit yourself out for your first baby, but you also have the on-going cost of clothing, toys and equipment for your child’s continued growth. Plus when your second, third and even forth baby arrives, you have even more things to buy.

However with the recession still gripping the country and not looking to ease up in the months ahead, there has been a move towards the purchase of second hand items, especially when it comes to children’s items which are outgrown very quickly.

But have you noticed that when you’re not looking for clothes or toys suitable for a certain age group there are loads available on auction sites such as Ebay and in second hand shops, but when it comes time to make these types of purchases, there is either nothing second-hand suitable or it’s really expensive to buy.

Well at Cube Self Storage, we have the perfect solution. Buy items that you will need in the months and even years ahead as and when you find them at affordable prices and put them into storage until you actually need them. This is a great solution to keep costs down. After all, you know that if a baby is currently in a cot, a toddler bed and even a single bed will be required within the next couple of years. If your toddler has a balance bike, a year later a child bike will probably be required.

Cube Self Storage offers you the flexibility to store what you like, when you like with the reassurance that it is all fully secure in our purpose built facility. With a range of different sized, storage rooms available, you can store anything from bags of clothing to full swing and slide sets. For more information about our rooms and rates, contact us today.
