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.
