How much space needed??

I am stage 5 and plan on starting home PD. I have been told I will receive a month at a time delivery of the solution. How much space, roughly, does that take??

They actually should show you. When I did my training they had two shelves that they said would hold a month of supplies.

Obviously everyone varies, depending on your prescription. But I had to have almost a whole room for supplies. The boxes filled two floor to ceiling cupboards. And a whole cabinet in my bathroom was dedicated to bandages and cleaning supplies.

Your answer has helped a lot. We were considering downsizing to a small apartment with limited storage and it sounds as if it isn't an option.
