Storage Tips

We have a few important tips to help you plan your storage needs.

  • Use the height of the unit...
    To maximize the use of space in your unit you must "go up".  Stand mattresses and box springs up in the back of the unit. Put night tables on top of dressers. Put sofas on top of other sturdy furniture.  Stand sofas on end.  Put lighter things on top.
  • Pack heavy boxes full...
    Boxes that will be on the bottom should be packed solid to support the boxes stacked on top.  Otherwise they will crush and the load will shift.  Books are a excellent base.  Build up with lighter, less filled boxes.
  • Wrap it up...
    To help keep cloth bedding or furniture dust free use stretch wrap or bed sheets. Mattress bags work well too. 
  • Protect from dust...
    Dust and pollen can get into your unit, particularly the regular storage units. You can drape a plastic drop cloth over the top of everything to keep it from getting into exposed fabric, etc.
