With spring break just around the corner, you’re ready to pack up for fun and sun along the shoreline. Whether you’re traveling out of state or headed for Brighton Beach, use convenient storage units in Brooklyn, NY, to stay organized as you check your list of spring break essentials.
Must-Have Beach Wear
If you stash seasonal clothes in self storage, it’s time to liberate your beach wardrobe. Along with your favorite swimsuits and sunglasses, retrieve these spring break must-haves.
- Cover-ups, kimonos, and sarongs
- Wide-brimmed hats and wind-proof caps
- Flip-flops, sandals, and water shoes
Plenty of Personal Protection
Pamper yourself on vacation by keeping the sun and surf at bay. You won’t spend every day under a palm tree, so pack plenty of personal protection.
- Sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30
- Long-lasting, waterproof lip balm
- Disposable wipes for clean hands and feet
- Insect repellent made with lemongrass, citronella, or cedarwood
Beachcomber Basics
When you stake out a sunny spot on the sand, do more than throw down a beach towel. On your way to the shore, be sure to pull these beachcomber basics out of self storage.
- Roomy beach bags and wheeled coolers
- Beach chairs and umbrellas
- Easy-wash picnic tablecloths
Water Toys and Gear
Jump into spring break with both feet by picking up sports equipment that spent the winter in your storage unit. Be sure to grab your favorite water toys, too.
- Wetsuits and scuba diving gear
- Volleyball or spikeball equipment
- Frisbees, footballs, and paddleball sets
- Beach balls, sand pails, and swim rings
Storage Tips for the Big Stuff
If things seem a little crowded in self storage, make room by repositioning big items. Stop by the sporting goods store and pick up an inexpensive rack designed for holding fishing poles.
Keep kayaks and paddle boards out of the way by elevating them in the unit. Set up adjustable loop systems that suspend equipment from the ceiling and stash oars in your fishing pole stand.
