Pack Thoughtfully:

  • Use high-quality packing materials to protect your items from dust and damage.
  • Label boxes clearly for easy identification when you need to access them later.
  • Place heavier items at the bottom of boxes to prevent crushing more delicate belongings.

Create an Inventory:

  • Keep a detailed inventory of items you're storing. This not only helps you keep track of your possessions but also aids in insurance claims in case of unforeseen events.

Secure Your Unit:

  • Use a high-quality lock on your storage unit. We recommend disc locks for added security.
  • Do not share your access code or keys with unauthorized individuals.

Utilize Shelving and Pallets:

  • Elevate your items off the ground using pallets or shelving. This adds an extra layer of protection against potential water damage.

Cover and Elevate Mattresses:

  • Cover mattresses or box springs with cloth or plastic mattress covers.
  • Elevate them off the floor to prevent damage.

Protect Documents, Books, and Photos:

  • Store documents, books, and photos in airtight plastic containers or plastic totes. This safeguards them from potential moisture and ensures their longevity.

Keep Pathways Clear:

  • Maintain clear pathways within your storage unit for easy access. This makes it simpler to find and retrieve items without causing unnecessary disruptions.

Regularly Check Your Unit:

  • Schedule periodic visits to ensure that your items are in good condition. This allows you to identify and address any issues promptly.

Insurance Coverage:

  • Consider obtaining insurance coverage for your stored items. While we take every precaution to ensure security, having insurance provides an extra layer of protection and peace of mind.
