Self Storage Tips
|
|
To best utilize your self storage
unit space and to protect your belongings please follow the guidelines below: |
|
Make a plan of the storage unit and how
your items will be arranged. Leave an aisle in the center of the storage unit for easy access to the rear.
Never store food or items that attract
pests and, for your safety, never store hazardous materials such as flammable liquids in your self storage unit.
Keep items off the floor of the storage
unit to improve ventilation. Use pallets, plywood, corrugated cardboard mats, etc.
Use the full height to take advantage of
your storage unit space. Shelving will help organize your space.
Label boxes on all sides. Keep a list that
details contents. Store frequently used items near the front. Pack valuables towards the rear, such as stereos, cameras, etc. |
|
Fill boxes to avoid tipping or crushing
when stacked, with the heaviest on bottom.
Disassemble tables, bed frames,
cabinets, etc. Wrap and label accordingly for easy assembly at a later date.
Make sure all appliances are clean and
dry before storage. Wedge refrigerator and freezer doors ajar. Rub oil on metal objects to avoid rusting. Avoid using plastic to cover belongings.
Store couches on end, chairs seat to
seat, tables upside down with legs pointing up. Use dust covers/bedsheets to cover.
Mirrors, records and flat items should be
stored on end, not flat. Books should be stored flat, and in small boxes.
Clothing and drapes should be stored
hanging inside wardrobes. Use drawers in dressers to store delicate items.
Check if your belongings are covered by
homeowners/renters insurance. If not, purchase separate storage insurance. |
