General Storage Tips
- Store items you’ll need most often at the front of the unit.
- When you pack your storage unit, create a center aisle for access to all items.
- If you’re storing tables and other furniture, remove legs and store tabletops and sofas on end,to save space.
- Pack books flat, not standing on end (which may cause damage to the spines). Books are extremely heavy, so don’t pack too many in one box.
- Old photographs tend to curl over time. To keep them flat, place them between two pieces of cardboard and tape them together.
- Never over-pack boxes. Overfilled boxes may rupture and topple when stacked.
- Clean and dry appliances. Keep refrigerator doors slightly ajar and use the space inside these items for additional storage.
