Moving to a new home can be a daunting task but Make Space Storage is here to make it simple. 

At Make Space we specialize in making storage simple across Canada, but did you know that we can simplify your move too? 

One of the easiest ways to move, whether you’re moving to a new town or just down the block, is by using portable storage containers. These containers, also called sea cans or shipping containers, can make moving a breeze by letting you pack and unpack at your own pace and avoid the high cost of movers (or the anxiety of trying to navigate a rental box truck around the city on your own!). 

Despite the clear positives of moving with portable storage containers, there are a lot of myths and misconceptions about the process that make it seem intimidating when really, it’s simple and user-friendly. So, let's debunk 10 common misconceptions about moving with portable storage containers.

Make Space Storage proudly announces the acquisition of two storage facilities in Trenton, Ontario. This expansion increases the company’s presence in the province of Ontario and aligns with the commitment to providing simple and secure storage solutions to local communities.

Are you ready to break free from the traditional 9-to-5 grind? The digital nomad lifestyle is calling your name! 

One of the key advantages of a location-independent lifestyle is the ability to travel and explore different parts of the world while maintaining a sustainable income. Digital nomads, for example, can work remotely using their laptops and an internet connection, allowing them to choose their desired locations freely. Picture this: working from a beachside cafe in Bali, typing away on your laptop as the waves crash against the shore. Or maybe you prefer a cozy mountain cabin, surrounded by breathtaking views while you tackle your tasks for the day. With location-independent living, the world becomes your office. This flexibility not only satisfies wanderlust but also enables you to experience diverse cultures, cuisines, and landscapes.
