Always leave space in your unit for you to walk around and access your items. You should leave some space between your items and the unit's wall, too, to allow adequate ventilation. That will help keep your items from getting moldy or mildewed.
Are you downsizing to a smaller home or office? Keeping your belongings at a storage facility is an excellent option if you have an overflow of furniture or seasonal items from your home or business.
A storage unit is a great place to keep valuables and other items that you want to pass along to your children and other family members. With central air and heat, your property will remain in perfect condition.
If you plan on storing a refrigerator or freezer unit, we recommend leaving the door slightly open. This will help to prevent mold from growing on the inside of your appliance.
Keep your clothes in tip top condition throughout seasonal and long term storage. Remove clothes from their hangers, place clothes in a plastic bag or container with a thin layer of tissue paper between each item and completely seal.
A great way to organize your storage space is to draw a simple map as you pack your items indicating where everything is located. Store your map in a safe place along with your lease and an inventory list-that way you'll have it if you need to locate anything.
