The few winter clothes we kept were either too hot, even in the “winter” months here, so I kept a few sweaters, two pairs of long pants, and that gets me through the cold weather.
IMO, don’t plan on storing stuff down here off site. Usually not worth it.

All good advice. We have done much the same.
It is hard to sell of toss things that had meaning for us when we bought them or were given them but we decided 1) no storage unit for us and 2) we will not clutter up our FL house.
