positive experience:
Residential - Home / Apartment Storage Tips
Try to keep your boxes in uniform sizes. They are much easier to stack
that way.
Make up an inventory of your stored items and keep it in a safe place at
home or in a safe deposit box.
Pictures and mirrors should be wrapped in mirror crates marked "FRAGILE"
and stacked on end.
Larger appliances make excellent "packing cases" for blankets, towels,
tablecloths and clothes.
Use freestanding shelves to help organize your unit.
Be sure to store frequently used items at the front of the unit to avoid
having to search for them.
Disassemble items such as tables, bed frames, etc. (This will save
space.) Wrap and label all pieces for an easier time when you have to
reassemble them. Put all hardware in bags and mark the bags accordingly.
Make sure that all appliances are clean and dry before storing them.
Leave appliances slightly ajar to prevent mildew.
To prevent rusting rub a small amount of machine oil on metal tools,
bicycles, and equipment. Drain and clean all debris from all equipment
before you store them.
If you've collected lots of books over time, it's a great time to
reevaluate what you really want to keep. Never pack more than 30 pounds
of books in a box. Use small boxes and pack books flat so the corners
won't break.
Load furniture first and boxes last in the truck. It will make it easier
when you unload at your storage space.
Clothing, rugs and anything fabric related should be clean and free from
anything that may attract pests.
Wrap sofas in heavy blankets and, if possible, stand on end. Disassemble
furniture and wrap table legs in paper. If furniture, such as a table,
will not disassemble, place padding on the floor and place the table on
its top with legs pointing up. Most lightweight chairs can be stacked
"seat to seat" or placed upside down on other furniture. Keep upholstery
off the floor. Place plastic covers over upholstered items and
mattresses. We sell these materials in our stores.
Commercial & Business Storage Tips
When storing books, pack them flat in the box to protect their spines.
Use packing paper to fill out empty areas in the boxes. Do not overload.
Documents and file boxes can be stored more efficiently using free
standing shelving. Be sure to make a list of all stored materials, and
if possible, add coding to your boxes in an easily viewable place on the
storage box to make retrieval easier.
When storing tools, metal items and equipment, be sure to clean and wipe
with a rag and machine oil to keep away dust corrosion.
Never store perishables, liquids, explosives, flammable liquids and
fuels, toxic materials, or other items that need a controlled
environment.
