Why did the bicycle rent a self-storage unit?<\/em><\/p>\n

Because it wanted to put the brakes on clutter!<\/em><\/p>\n

If YOU want to put the brakes on clutter too, consider Wimmer Communities where free storage is included at nearly every one of our apartment communities.<\/p>\n

Why should free storage be on your apartment-hunting checklist? Let me count the ways!<\/strong><\/h2>\n

As you hunt for your new apartment home, it’s important to remember this often-overlooked apartment amenity. Take a moment to consider these questions…<\/p>\n

\n
• What’s your plan for storing bikes and outdoor equipment and for organizing household items?<\/li>\n
• Where will you hide your luggage and seasonal decorations without cluttering up your closets and bedrooms?<\/li>\n
• How are you going to find extra room in your budget each and every month for a traditional self-storage unit?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  Wimmer Communities is here to help you solve ALL of the above dilemmas!<\/strong><\/p>\n

  But what if your apartment came with extra storage, without another monthly bill?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

  Apartment dwellers throughout time have lamented the age-old apartment-living dilemma: limited closet space. At Wimmer, we have a leg up on our competition by offering free storage included with your monthly rent. Yes! You heard that right! No extra fee for storage!<\/p>\n

  Private storage spaces are offered at no added cost beyond rent at most Wimmer communities. You supply the padlock and we provide a clean, safe environment to store your items. In addition, Townhomes at three of our communities include a basement, giving residents a plethora of storage space, reducing clutter in upstairs living spaces. Beyond that, communities with private garage parking may allow residents to use a small part of their garage for storage (as long as your vehicle still fits and is parked within your garage<\/em>). So be sure to ask for clarification of storage arrangements on your property tour.<\/p>\n

  Sounds good, but how much am I really saving with Wimmer’s “free storage?”<\/strong><\/h3>\n

  At Wimmer Communities, “free storage” means more space without the extra cost beyond your monthly rent, which translates to saving an average of $48 – $68 PER MONTH, depending on the storage unit size. (Figures based on StorMark<\/a> cost of storage in Milwaukee September 2026).<\/em> Multiply that times 12 months and you’re talking about $576 – $816 dollars saved per year! Not only that, but on-site Wimmer storage is within walking distance of your home. In some cases that means a storage unit on the same floor as your apartment, while other times it means a unit found within the underground parking garage.<\/p>\n

  So, to sum it up: Is storage included with every Wimmer apartment?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

  Many Wimmer Communities include private storage at no added cost beyond your monthly rent. Storage options vary by community and apartment type, so be sure to ask about the specific storage options available at the property you’re considering.<\/p>\n
