Storage for Students on Spring Break
We’re just beginning 2018 and we’re hitting the harshest part of winter, so let’s take the time to dream about something a lot warmer and wonderful. If you’re a college student, or you have a student in your life you’re probably counting down the days until spring break. For many students that means traveling to warmer locations. According to Mental Floss, the tradition began in the late 1920s when Fort Lauderdale installed Florida’s first Olympic sized swimming pool, attracting collegiate swimmers for warm weather training and they began bringing friends. Spring Break is fun and chaotic, but A.B. Richards wants to keep you organized well in advance of the fun.

At A.B. Richards, we help our clients store many items that are important and hold special meaning to them. It could be their personal possessions and papers, a cherished gift or collectibles. We know that among the most valuable items we see stored, from a financial and sentimental viewpoint, are pieces of art. Whether you’re a collector who wants to take care of your works of art, an artist yourself, or just want to store something you find beautiful and want to keep for your home or business, A.B. Richards can help.

Are you a snowbird? Do you have a winter home in some glorious warm weather area like Florida or Arizona? Or maybe your idea of a winter home is in an area where there’s actual snow along with skiing and snowmobiling. If you have someplace where you’re planning to have fun, enjoy. But you probably also know that relocating from your home in the northeast to somewhere else, requires quite a bit of organization. That’s where A.B. Richards can help.
Star Wars and Storage Containers
At A.B. Richards, we tell you all the time about the many uses for portable steel storage containers, but until recently we never thought that they might help hide the fastest ship in the galaxy from imperial storm troopers. OK. We’re not positive that’s the reason why the Millennium Falcon, the ship made famous by Han Solo in the original Star Wars trilogy, was recently spotted being camouflaged by storage units. But there’s something about Star Wars that excites the imagination.
