While we would all love a home or apartment with all the in-house storage you need, that is not always easy to find. And if you are able to find it, there is a chance it will cost an arm and a leg. However, there is a way to get some extra storage without having to find a whole new home.
Purchasing and using a storage container is a great way to get some extra storage for your belongings, at a reasonable price. Container Stop has been providing storage containers in Hollister and the rest of California for years, and are one of the best locally owned and operated storage companies in the state. They offer a wide range of different sizes (even customized) and deliver right to your property. Also, their world class support team will ensure your questions are answered all throughout the process. But sometimes, these Hollister storage containers can be a bit visually unappealing. They are built more for function than for style. However, that doesn’t mean they can’t look great. With that in mind, here are some ideas for designing and customizing the exterior of your storage container.
Paint it to match your home
Any way you slice it, a large steel or metal storage container on your property can always be a little bit of an eye sore, especially when compared to a gorgeous home. One great way to add a little personality to your storage container is to give it a little bit of color to make it “fit in” a little bit more. Of course, you want to ensure you are using a suitable type of paint that will work on metal exteriors.
Add some landscaping
In order to help the storage container feel like it “belongs” on your property, you should look to integrate it into your lot. This can be done in a lot of different ways. But one of the best ways to help the container fit in is to add some landscaping around/on it. By having plants, trees or shrubs surround the container, you will feel more like it is an extension of your home, and not a random addition to it.
Put solar panels on it
This one might not be for the looks of the container, but has more of a practical use. Living in California, there is a lot of sun out there during the day. People should be taking advantage of this sun by adding solar power to their homes, garages and yes, storage containers. This could save people money, while helping the environment at the same time.
