Summer in Round Rock, TX brings sunshine, travel, and backyard fun—but it also comes with clutter. Whether you're preparing for a family vacation, clearing space for home projects, or just trying to keep cool, a self-storage unit can help you stay organized and stress-free. So what do your neighbors store when summer rolls around? Here are the top 5 most common items we see in our storage units at Round Rock Secure Storage—and why it makes sense to store them.
1. 🪑 Patio Furniture & Outdoor Décor
As summer storms and Texas heat roll in, many homeowners choose to protect their patio furniture by placing it in storage. This includes:
- Cushioned chairs and loungers
- Outdoor rugs and umbrellas
- Fire pits and grill accessories
Why store it? To extend its life, prevent mold or sun damage, and free up yard space for landscaping or play.
2. 🎓 College Dorm Essentials
With universities like Texas State and UT Austin nearby, many college students and parents use summer break to store:
- Mini fridges, futons, desks, and bedding
- Boxes of textbooks and supplies
- Dorm decorations and electronics
This makes move-in easier in the fall and prevents hauling everything back home for just a few months.
3. 🚴♂️ Recreational Gear
Summer fun often means more gear—but it also means more clutter. That’s why residents store items like:
- Bicycles, kayaks, paddleboards
- Camping equipment
- Sports gear and coolers
A storage unit keeps your garage or apartment tidy, while still giving you easy weekend access.
4. 🎄 Holiday & Seasonal Décor
Summer is the perfect time to rotate out seasonal items like:
- Christmas lights, trees, and wreaths
- Fall-themed porch décor
- Easter baskets or spring floral arrangements
Using a small 5x5 or 5x10 unit keeps holiday items organized and out of your closets.
5. 🧳 Travel & Vacation Supplies
Planning a big summer road trip or extended vacation? Store extras like:
- Luggage sets, travel totes, or pet carriers
- Off-season clothing
- Backup strollers or baby travel gear
Short-term storage gives you a safe space while freeing up room for daily use items.
