Self Storage Hints And Tips For Packaging And Storing
Please see below Premier Self Storage’s top 20 hints and tips for packaging and storing:
- Use good quality storage boxes. All packing materials required can be purchased from our reception
- Fill boxes to capacity, as partially full or bulging boxes may tip or collapse
- Heavy items should be packed into small boxes so that they are easy to lift
- Label or number boxes for easy reference when you need to locate your goods
- Make up an inventory of your stored items and keep it in a safe place at home
- Protect your fragile goods in bubble wrap
- Dishes and glasses should be wrapped in tissue paper or bubble wrap before storing
- Garden equipment should be cleaned before storing
- Wrap table legs with bubble wrap before storing
- Wardrobe boxes allow you to store your clothing on hangers which keeps their shape
- Place heavy or bulky items in the room first to provide a good stacking base
- Plan your storage space – put those items that you need to get to most often near the front, close to the door
- To maximise space stack similar sized boxes together
- Do not place heavy items on sofas or mattresses
