What are all those items that you are trying to 'salvage'? .... sentimental, antiques, books, souvenirs ? Can some of those be sold as 2nd or donate? ?

Not worth paying storage for those things except the handbags if is branded. Those things kept in enclosed place can disintegrate after sometime due to lack ventilation.

Got few storage companies in Malaysia. Need to pay rental per month. You will be given a personal room to store stuff inside. Can't store certain items like flammable/hazardous items. Most people use these when moving houses to store large furnitures too.

I know there's one in PJ but I forgotten the name. It's near the Campbell factory.

The title - unwanted item.

Maybe donate to the needy would be better use.

You have to ask yourself whether the items that you want to keep will spark joy?

I think it is good for ts to find a space rental service for your items temporarily as u do not have time to handle those items. But once u have some free time, u may want to dispose the items. Don't put in the storage space for too long and forget about the existence of those items. 😁

For a hoarder, it's "someday I'll need this" or "every item sparks joy".

Just sell, give away or throw those items you don't want to take to your new apartment. What are you storing for? Your apartment isn't going to grow bigger.
