Storage Tips

TIP 1
Make up an inventory of your items and keep it in a safe place at home or in a safe deposit box.
TIP 2
Create a center aisle within your storage unit for access to all items.
TIP 3
Remove legs from tables and chairs when possible. Store tabletops and sofas on end, to save space.
TIP 4
Avoid placing boxes directly on concrete floors, but use pallets or skids to allow airflow around and under items.
TIP 5
Place photographs between two pieces of cardboard and tape them together.
TIP 6
Whenever possible, place dressers and tables top-to-top to save space.
TIP 7
Use protective covers and treat wood surfaces before storing.
TIP 8
Use trash cans to store shovels, hoes and rakes.
TIP 9
Mattresses should be covered and stored flat on level surfaces.

 

TIP 10
Common sense and state law determines what may be stored. You alone control access to your storage space therefore never store firearms, illicit drugs or drug paraphernalia, live animals, perishables, liquids, explosives, flammable liquids and fuels, toxic materials, or other items that need a controlled environment.
TIP 11
When storing metal items, to retard rust, wipe all metal surfaces with a rag containing a few drops of machine oil.

Pack blankets, draperies, and dress clothes on the hanger in a wardrobe box.

TIP 14
Put TV’s and other electronics in the rear of your unit.
TIP 15
Drain gasoline and oil from lawn mowers and other items with small engines.
