<p>My son is planning on getting together with some friends to rent a storage unit to store stuff May through August so we don't have to lug it all home and back again. Does anyone have any experience with this?</p>

<p>My son found a place called U-Store-It in Burlington. It is climate controlled which is important to us. We got a 5x5 unit and the cost is $35 a month. He is renting this with a friend. A bit steep, but worth not having to drag his stuff to and from MA!!</p>
<p>We did this for a couple of years. We used teh place that is next to McDonald’s on Church Street. It was definately worth it to not have to move everything home.</p>
