Cinco De Mayo is tomorrow and with it comes a large celebration that we here in Tucson are very familiar with. A lot of people have parties and what not, and this happens all across America, but what is the reason why we celebrate? Well, we decided to look more into the holiday and found some interesting fact that you may or may not have known about Cinco De Mayo.
For starters, the often mistake made is that Cinco De Mayo is a celebration for Mexico’s independence. It is not. That holiday is a very huge celebration that takes place in September. Cinco De Mayo is to commemorate the Mexican army’s unlikely victory over the French. It often gets misconstrued as the independence day, partially because it was such a monumental battle, but it is a completely different event altogether.
Still, there is a big celebration every year by both Mexicans and Americans and it has become somewhat of a big party holiday in the way that the 4th of July has become a big BBQ holiday. Since Tucson is so close to Mexico, the celebrations are oftentimes elaborate and festive, making it a great time of the year to be in Tucson. But we Don’t have to tell you that.
So for tomorrow, be sure to have fun and be safe, all while thinking about that unlikely victory at the battle of Puebla. Most importantly, be sure to stay safe out there. Happy Cinco De Mayo everyone.

These are just some things you can do to help facilitate your goal achievements. It all comes down to commitment, but following at least three of these tips will give you the insight needed to stick to your plan.

Next weekend marks the annual Tucson parade of lights festival, a great event that brings a little holiday cheer to the whole area. We don’t get snow, so a lot of that holiday iconography gets lost. The Tucson parade of lights allows the community to rally around a holiday event in spectacular fashion. We are excited to announce our presence during this festival. We’ll have our truck and mascot representing Tucson’s best self-storage company. Come on down and enjoy a great holiday activity.
But that is next weekend and this weekend has a great event that is always a pleasure. If many of you have gone down 4th Ave as of last night, you have probably noticed all the vendor tents going up for this weekend’s street fair. This is an exciting time since the winter street fair helps bring in some of the holiday feelings with its festive nature.
Taking place on 4th avenue over the course of the weekend, the winter street fair will allow you to go through and experience the many local vendors shopping out their wares. It is a fun time to see what is out there, and there are tons of activities to partake in. If you go, expect to be in the company of over 30,000 people all there to enjoy this great event. Most of the vendors will be cash only, but don’t fret; there will be ATMs stationed throughout the fairs length.
Supporting these community wide events is important since it helps give Tucson the community identity we are famous for. They are also just a plain old good time. Be sure to check out the street fair as well as next weekend’s parade of lights. We hope to see you there.
When your house becomes too cluttered you’ll need to organize. Organization has a lot of wonderful practical benefits, but can also add to mental clarity. When your house becomes jumbled with no longer necessary things, you can find yourself becoming encumbered by the mess. Also, you can lose important things that get lost in the fold. For today, we wanted to touch upon the subject of organization and how self-storage can help reduce a lot of the problems involved with disorganization.
When it comes to a cluttered house, many can find themselves becoming annoyed and uncomfortable with their surroundings. Your home is supposed to be the place for comfort, not stress, so when you come into it and there is an abundance of belongings, you might want to consider getting yourself a storage unit.
A lot of people have a hard time going through their belongings and designating things to throw out or donate. We understand that not everyone can move on quickly from their belongings, but that is why self-storage is great. If you have those items that you can’t find an immediate use for, but can’t bring yourself to throw out, get yourself a storage unit. You’ll be able to compartmentalize your household, while getting rid of some keepsakes that are starting to wear out their welcome.
The organization process is simple: go around your house, pick out the things that are starting to clutter, pack them up, and take them out to your newly rented storage unit. That’s the ease of it, and you can make your house’s organization happen almost instantaneously just by eliminating some of the bulk from your life.
We know that sifting through your belongings and figuring out what you no longer need is easier said than done. We get that, but we also know that having a de-cluttered, well-maintained house is one of the best things around. After all, you want to be able to kick back and relax without having to worry about your stuff overtaking you.

This season has had a lot of moments like that for the Wildcats, and we hope this streak keeps going so that the team has their best run in years.
But now for the good stuff: Storage. Last week we ran an article about the diversity we are starting to see in the use of our units, but today we want to bring it back to the basics. What is the best way to pack a traditional storage unit? This is a question we are happy to address.

Some of the sites worth checking out in the area will certainly dazzle the mind. We have a great combination of being a modern city while surrounded by extraordinary natural sights. It’s not hard to look around and see the beautiful mountains that line our city, but when was the last time you actually went all the way to the top of mount Lemmon and looked out at the vast landscape? If you’re new to the area, make this your first priority. If you’re returning, why not head up there and enjoy it for the first time this school year?

Another week comes to an end, but another blog post has just started. We’ve got a good grasp on the end of summer and how storage can help with the transition, but what about using the storage itself? Is it too complicated to just get in there and store things? No, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t ways that can make the overall experience better.
Like most things, there is a way to get the job done (loading up the storage unit as quick as possible) and a way to capitalize on good space management (meticulous planning to get the most out of your unit). We’ve been in the business for a long time, and have helped many customers over the years, so we felt like this would be a good time to drop some simple, but crucial, tips. Let’s get into it.
Following these simple tips will ensure a more efficient storage experience, as well as making access to your belongings much, much easier.
