Self Storage Tips
- Pack the items and boxes you don't need to access first. Keep your regularly used items near the door.
- Store things vertically but don’t over reach. Use a stool to help you stack.
- Heavy things on the bottom and light things up top.
- Break down any furniture that you can, label each piece, stick all screws and bolts into a plastic bag and tape the bag to your furniture so you know what it belongs to. This will help to optimize your storage space.
- Put table tops and long flat items down the sides of the unit.
- Use your fridge to store items as well. Remember to wedge the door open for ventilation.
- Put gardening equipment into a bin and stack bins inside each other.
