Stacking heavy items on the bottom and smaller boxes on top will help make sure they don't get crushed.
Disassemble furniture for easier storage.

Items such as tables and beds should be taken apart and screws can be kept in a sandwich bag.

To Allow Easy Access

Make an aisle for easier navigation in your unit.

Make an aisle

At some point you may want to reach a box in the back. Leaving an aisle will help you navigate more easily.

Furniture sliders help keep your storage items transportable.

Putting furniture sliders underneath heavy items such as couches can make a huge difference.

Bubble wrap is a good option when storing breakable items.

Storing mattresses horizontally will help maintain their integrity.

Use Baits and Traps

You can also use dryer sheets in the corners of your unit, but we recommend changing every 30 days.
​
Canvas can be great for protecting furniture and other stored items.

AVOID PLASTIC BAGS

Plastic bags can trap in moisture which can lead to mold on your belongings.

Storing A VACUUM?

Make sure the vacuum bag is completely empty. Accidentally storing old food may bring unwanted guests.
