Storage Boxes - A Need for Moving, Storing and Packing

Once you shortlist the storage service, the local folks of the storage company will definitely assist you with the basic packing requirements; but meanwhile we shall highlight certain basics:

Expand the space: All the storage units are spacious enough so that you can stack your belongings to manage the space in an efficient manner. Place all the sturdier and heavier items at the bottom and lighter on the top. Make sure about the stability and avoid toppling of the belongings to prevent the collapse and breakage of the same. The most important suggestion is that the items should be packed thoroughly using storage boxes and fragile items should be padded with sponge or fabric. This diminishes the risk of monetary loss in case of potential damage during transportation to and fro of the belongings from the units.

Leave a passage: There should always be an aisle left to access the belongings at the storage units to prevent the space from getting cluttered. It also makes easier for you to find a particular item when you are back to the unit after a couple of days or weeks or months.

Ways to conserve space: All the items should be wrapped in a tidy manner for managing the space in a better way. The small items, linens or clothing can be placed inside the drawers of the tables or the empty space in the appliances.

Try a virtual storage unit: You may visualize the items to accommodate into spaces of varying sizes which will help you to estimate the exact storage size requirements.

Label the packed boxes: It would be difficult for you to recall after few days the exact box that holds your stuff. Labeling the boxes helps you to find the desired item easily without wasting your precious time. Of course, it takes up a little more time to keep a record of the inventory, but you will realize the advantage when you are back to the unit to access a specific item. You can place all the valuable belongings at the back of the unit that will give you a quicker hint to locate a particular item.

Turn the labels on boxes facing the aisle: This makes it easier for you to read the label soon as you step into the storage unit.
