STORAGE TIPS
Make an inventory of everything you plan to store before selecting a unit. Group similar items together and use a storage size guide to help choose a space that provides enough room without paying for unnecessary space.
Use sturdy boxes and quality packing materials to help protect your belongings. Avoid overfilling boxes, and place heavier items on the bottom to create stable stacks.
Clearly label each box with its contents and the room it belongs to. Keeping a simple inventory can also help you quickly locate important items without having to unpack multiple boxes.
Leave a walkway through your storage space so you can reach items in the back. Place frequently accessed belongings near the front and organize boxes by category for easier retrieval.
Cover furniture with protective materials and wrap fragile belongings individually. Use appropriate padding for electronics, glassware, and other delicate items to help prevent scratches or damage.
Disassemble larger furniture when possible and use shelving, containers, and vertical space efficiently. Place smaller boxes inside larger furniture pieces when appropriate to make the most of your storage unit.
Store documents, seasonal decorations, tools, and other frequently needed belongings where they're easy to reach. Avoid placing these items behind heavy furniture or large stacks of boxes.
Before using outdoor RV, boat, or vehicle parking, clean your vehicle, secure loose belongings, and follow the manufacturer's recommendations for storage. Check your vehicle periodically and make sure it is properly prepared for its intended storage period.
Maintain an orderly storage space and periodically check your belongings. Keeping boxes and items organized makes it easier to identify what you still need and what can be removed or donated.
