Much like a loft, a basement is a convenient storage solution for all the unused items you want to hang on to, allowing you to maximize your square footage elsewhere and cut the clutter from the living areas of your home.
However, what to store in a basement will depend largely on the specific conditions found below ground. As basements often features low ceilings and minimal natural light, items such as photographs, electronics and tools can become damaged, particularly if yours is unfinished, without climate control.
