Take Back Your Basement This Summer: Smart Storage Solutions in Cambridge

Posted Jun 17th, 2025

Basements are some of the most underused (and overstuffed) spaces in many Cambridge homes. They often start as extra living areas but quickly turn into makeshift storage units filled with seasonal items, old furniture, sports gear, and boxes of “someday we’ll deal with it.”

This summer, why not reclaim that space?

Whether you’re looking to turn your basement into a home gym, rec room, guest suite, or just want to feel like you can walk through it without tripping—Classic Storage at 375 Franklin Blvd. in Cambridge can help.

Here’s how self-storage can help you finally take back your basement:

1. Sort and Store Seasonal Items

Basements often collect things you only use once or twice a year:

  • Holiday decorations
  • Camping gear
  • Extra patio furniture
  • Winter sports equipment
  • Old school projects or keepsakes

Rather than letting them take up year-round space, pack them into sturdy plastic bins and move them into a secure storage unit. That way, they’re accessible—but not in your way.

2. Move Bulky Items Out

Trying to renovate or redesign your basement? Store bulky items like:

  • Spare couches and chairs
  • Extra mattresses
  • Filing cabinets
  • Old appliances

Classic Storage offers units in multiple sizes, so you don’t have to rent more than you need. A 10’ x 10’ unit is often perfect for this kind of storage.

3. Keep the Damp at Bay

Basements in older homes can be musty or prone to moisture—especially during Ontario’s humid summer months. By moving non-essential items into a dry, drive-up unit at our Cambridge facility, you can protect them from basement dampness.

Pro Tip: Use sealed plastic bins, moisture absorbers, and shelving inside your unit to keep things fresh and off the ground.

4. Create Space for What Matters

When your basement isn’t cluttered with forgotten boxes or unused furniture, you can finally use the space. Imagine:

• A home theatre or gaming space
• A dedicated playroom for the kids
• A peaceful yoga studio or workout space
• A cool, quiet office nook for working from home

All possible once you clear out what you don’t use daily.
