Spring is the busiest time of year for moving, home projects, and seasonal cleanouts. These annual shifts create steady demand for storage, and operators who plan ahead are the ones best positioned to serve customers during peak season. Ordering your Boxwells now ensures you have the right inventory in place by the time spring activity begins.
People continue to relocate, renovate, and reorganize each year, even during times of economic or market uncertainty. According to national housing and moving industry reports, spring brings higher household transitions, more home sales activity, and increased short-term storage needs. These predictable cycles highlight why operators rely on early planning and consistent inventory throughout the warmer months.
Welcome to your Peak Season Playbook for 2026. Use these strategies to stay ahead, grow your inventory, and meet demand with confidence.
Why Spring Demand Matters for Your Business
Spring brings a perfect combination of conditions that increase demand for storage:
- Improved weather encourages moving
- Homeowners begin renovation and clean-out projects
- Businesses shift inventory and prepare for seasonal transitions
- Students store belongings before summer
These predictable seasonal changes create strong demand for both portable and self-storage. Operators who increase inventory before March are better positioned to serve customers and capture seasonal revenue.
Understand the Seasonal Spike
Peak season typically runs from April through September, with spring serving as the launch point. People move when weather improves, begin renovation projects, or need temporary space during home transitions. These moments drive consistent demand for flexible storage options.
If your facility is nearing capacity, this is the time to prepare. Ordering Boxwells early helps you secure delivery, avoid freight and material fluctuations, and have your units ready before the first wave of spring rentals. Planning ahead gives your business a competitive advantage long before demand reaches its highest point.
Prepare Your Site for Growth
A smooth peak season starts with smart site planning. Review your current layout, identify underused areas, and determine what types of units will support your growth in the spring.
Working with your Boxwell Account Manager, you will:
- Review goals and capacity
- Explore layout options for your property
- Choose a mix of units to serve peak-season renters
- Finalize colors, branding, and configurations
Our creative team provides custom layouts, mockups, and free design services to help your site look polished and ready for an increase in traffic.
