Bizarre collections found in storage units with Store That, Secure Self-Storage E14

According to the Guardian, around a third of the people in the UK collect one thing or another. Some collect with profit in mind, many do it for personal or sentimental reasons, and then there are those with collections so huge or bizarre that there’s no discernible reason for the items being hoarded in the first place. The beauty of finding them in forgotten storage units is that we will never know…

Men’s shoes

A collection of shoes doesn’t sound too strange at first. It seems useful, more than anything, to have such a vast collection of everything from trainers to lace-ups to steel-toe capped boots. What makes this collection so bizarre is that after sifting through all the footwear clumsily piled into a large cardboard box, they were discovered to be exclusively shoes for the left foot. 

Stuffed cats

It probably goes without saying that ‘stuffed cats’ doesn’t refer to cuddly toys. Now, whether you’re into taxidermy is neither here nor there, but having a collection of no fewer than TWELVE stuffed cats kept hidden away from the rest of the world does seem a little morbid.

Belly button fluff

We’re all guilty of doing something at least a little gross once in a while; everybody’s human after all. However, when your unsanitary habit leads to the accumulation of three large jars of self-produced lint, it’s probably safe to say that you may have a slight problem. Now, whether that’s a hoarding problem or a belly button problem, we’ll let you decide.
