Christmas is right around the corner, and after last year’s disappointment it seems fair to say that we all want it to be extra special this year.
We want the Christmas tree (a real one obviously) to be up and the decks to be hung around the house as soon as possible. But all this decorating can make the house feel a little crowded. And we don’t even want to think about how chaotic it can feel once all those presents are opened and the guests have arrived.
So why not do a little decluttering now and let Hogleaze Storage help you out this festive period.
Create an away from home wine cellar with our wine storage
The kitchen is crammed with all that delicious festive food. So, where do you store the Christmas drinks?
You may not have a dedicated wine cellar in the house, but why not use one of our units for wine storage, and have an away from home, festive period wine cellar.
Your alcohol will be safe in our Dorchester self storage units or our Weymouth self storage units, thanks to our exceptional security features, and consistent temperatures.
Our Dorchester site is open 24/7 meaning you can pop over to pick up another bottle, or two, whenever you like.
Pro tip: if you are busting out those additional wine glasses for your guests but don’t have much space for them, why not try hanging a wire stemware rack below overhead cabinets.
Where is the Christmas tree going to go?
A big question asked in most homes is “where are we going to put the christmas tree?”
It can’t go there because the coffee table is in the way, or the footstool, or the pile of the kids toys. Sometimes a little bit of rearranging is necessary, but even then things don’t always fit.
Our Dorset storage units might be the perfect answer. Our small storage units go up to 25 Sq Ft and would be great to store the coffee table, or a few of those toys that probably won’t get a look in once the christmas presents have been unwrapped.
Alternatively, if you are looking to store a slightly larger piece of furniture, so that your christmas tree can take pride of place, we have larger furniture storage units, which can go up to 190 Sq Ft at both our Dorchester and Weymouth storage facilities.

Get that spare room guest ready
We know, it is so easy to just think “oh this can just go in the spare room while I figure out what to do with it”. Then we forget about it and before we know it the room is filled with random things and there is no chance that anyone can sleep on the bed.
Maybe it is time to go through all of those things, on the other hand there are far more important things to get sorted before Christmas.
Our medium self storage units are suitable for storing a wide range of your belongings, whether that be sports equipment left over from the active summer you have had, or your holiday wardrobe that is yet to be put away.
Pro tip: instead of thinking of this as a mammoth task, try spending just 20 minutes a day clearing it out, that way it will feel more manageable and less overwhelming.
Interested in getting organised with us?
Our Dorchester self storage site and Weymouth self storage site could be the simple answer to help you have your extra special Christmas.
Our small and medium size self storage units are a great solution to temporarily store furniture that has been replaced by the Christmas tree, or clutter that has been hiding in that spare room.
For Weymouth self-storage call our Weymouth team on 01305 830000, and for Dorchester self storage call our Dorchester team on 01305 889777. If you are wanting vehicle storage, please call our Dorchester branch on 01305 889777.
Found the facility to be safe and secure
I used Hogleaze Storage for many years and found the facility to be safe and secure. My belongings stayed dry; the ambient temperature seemed just right and there was no dampness. Wooden furniture; cardboard boxes and books all survived intact. The staff are also helpful and friendly. I would recommend this facility.
