Harrison City Self Storage Tips

There are many useful tips to consider when storing your items. Tips include:
  • Avoiding the Accumulation of Dust: Make sure all of your items are in boxes if possible. Anything out of a box can get dusty.
  • Prevent Fire: Never store any flammable substances or gas containers in your unit. 
  • Even Out Weight: Space out your heavy items so your boxes aren't too heavy.
  • Utilizing Extra Space: Try to fill up your boxes so the sides or corners won’t cave in. Bubble wrap or foam peanuts are a good way to use the extra space. 
  • Labeling Boxes: Labeling your boxes is a great way to stay organized so you can always find what you are looking for. 
  • Preventing Damage: To avoid damaging your books, pack them flat instead of on their spines. Fragile items should be individually wrapped and packed tightly in strong boxes. Furniture drawers are also a good place to store these items. 
  • Properly Storing Mattresses: Cover any mattresses and store them flat on a level surface. 
  • Organizing Your Items Effectively: If you are storing business files, constructing aisles will make your boxes easily accessible.
  • Hangers Help: Always try to store your clothes on hangers when possible. This is also good for your curtains or bedspread as well.
  • Keeping Rust Out: When you are storing items with metal try wiping them down with a rag that has a little bit of machine oil on it. This will help prevent rust.
  • Holiday Storage: A great way to store your holiday decorations is in the boxes they came in. These will protect your decorations the best.
