Packing and Storage Hints:
- Plan your storage space. Place those items that you need to get to often in the front. Allow for walkways.
- Completely fill each box with your heaviest items on the bottom and lighter items on top.
- Label ALL boxes for easy identification.
- Pack your boxes and other items as close together as possible to avoid moisture accumulating between them.
- Use a HIGH QUALITY lock, preferably a 'disc lock', for your unit.
- Dishes and glasses should be wrapped in packing paper and placed in dish pack boxes. Stack those on top.
- Place your matresses and soft furniture items on 2' x 4' boards or some other ventilation method to guard against dampness. Any concrete floor may become cold and damp.
- Antiques, pianos or other musical instruments should be stored in heated units.
- Pictures and mirrors should be wrapped in mirror crates marked 'FRAGILE' and stacked on end.
- Furniture with drawers can be utilized as storage places for knickknacks, china, silverware and small items. Wrap in tablecloths, towels or blankets to prevent breakage.
- Larger appliances make excellent 'packing cases' for blankets, towels, tablecloths and clothes.
- Shovels, hoes, rakes and hoses can be stored together in empty trashcans. Stack extra cans inside one another.
- Do not assume that your homeowner or renter insurance will cover your belongings while in storage. You may need to purchase insurance.
- When wrapping collectibles or anything breakable, tape it after you wrap it. This will keep you from mistaking them for the excess paper you used to fill the box.
