I have to agree, it seems to make better sense to cut deeper than to rent a storage unit. We are in the midst of cutting back, too, and I know it's hard. I figure that I can keep about 1 in 20 items and need to ditch the rest. I have kind of crossed over that emotional hump from "it's mine, I love it" to "this stuff is keeping me from the life I want". Now I'm into the next phase of pain, "well, I don't want to just give/throw it away". And NOW is the time to trim, before you pay to have it moved. But $1200 a year for storage? That's a good motivator. Here's pulling for ya!
