Storage Tips & FAQs

Storing and packing just got easier! Here are a few helpful storage tips....

1. Label boxes on all sides for easy identification.

2. Make sure fragile boxes are placed on top of heavier, less delicate boxes.

3. Boxes that are tightly sealed with packing tape will prevent dust from entering. Plastic bins are ideal.

4. Use moving pads or wood pallets to keep items off the floor of the unit.

5. When storing business files, leave a walkway down the center of your unit to make accessing items easier.

6. Do not store anything flammable (such as paint or other chemicals) or perishable.

7. Drain any fluids prior to storing snow blowers, lawnmowers, and other equipment; Do not store hazardous or combustible materials.

8. Purchase a secure, high quality lock. One of the most highly recommended is the disk lock, which is available at Space Management.
