Garden furniture – where to store it in the off-season?

Are you the lucky owner of a backyard? Do you love spending time there, relaxing on a deckchair with a book, drinking coffee in nature? Do you like to host barbecues, welcome guests? Then garden furniture is a must – a large table to seat your guests comfortably, cosy chairs for parties and everyday use.

A relaxing garden is not just about an evenly mown lawn, beautiful flower beds and perfectly trimmed bushes; it is above all a comfortable space in which you will enjoy spending your free time, relaxing after work and welcoming your guests. In today’s fast-paced, pressurised and over-stimulated world, your garden can become an oasis of peace and quiet. A place where you can take a moment to calm down.

Storage of garden furniture in winter

A hammock, a table, chairs, a garden umbrella, a barbecue – these are all essential pieces of equipment for any garden. However, many people, despite having a large patio, do not have enough space to store all these items in the off-season. Garden furniture, especially rattan and wooden furniture, has a low resistance to moisture. Plastic furniture, although seemingly more resilient, does not stand up well to big frosts. When exposed to low temperatures, they become brittle and fragile and may crack. Metal and cast iron furniture are the most durable, but if left out in the winter, exposed to dampness, they can become rusted.

If you want your furniture to serve you for many years in good condition, it is worth properly protecting it for the winter. Some people choose to leave things under the gazebo, others hide them in a cellar or basement, but these places are often damp. A secure place where you can successfully store both your garden furniture and many other seasonal items for which you do not have space in your home is Less Mess Storage’s self storage facilities. Modern security systems provide protection against theft – you can be sure that your belongings will not fall into the wrong hands. Our storage facilities combine convenience and security with optimum conditions in every room.

Proper storage allows you to keep your furniture in perfect condition until the next season, when it will allow you to create a relaxing and welcoming area anew.
