REDUCING STRESS CAUSING PROBLEMS IN MINI STORAGE

Whether you're moving across town or across the country or storing seasonal furniture, important files or appliances, the following moving and packing tips will help you keep your items safe and protected, while getting the most from your mini storage unit.

What do you get from a mini storage unit? A mini storage unit can be a great place to store seasonal items that you pull out once a year, such as an artificial Christmas tree and ornaments.  Just getting your seasonal items in one spot and organized will alleviate loads of stress in an instant. Mini storage units decrease the amount of time you would normally spend navigating the black hole of items in your attic, too.  This would indirectly save you money and could directly organize your house or office space.  Mini storage units can protect your items better from damage or theft, too, which means you won’t have to spend any money replacing those items.

How do you start packing? Taking the time to carefully pack your items for your move or during long-term mini storage can go a long way to minimizing breakage and keeping your items safe. First, make sure to make an inventory list of your items and keep it in a safe place (at home or in a safe deposit box) away from the unit. It will give you time to prepare your mini storage space by installing protective covers and such.

Are you ready to store your items? When storing, don’t just throw all of your items in a mini storage unit haphazardly. When it comes to placing items in a storage unit, consider how often you’ll need to remove certain possessions. Place items you’ll use frequently closer to the door for easier access. Also, cushion any fragile items and put them toward the top of the mini storage unit. Finally, label your cartons and create a checklist that you keep at home so you can more easily find your property when you need it.

The process of renting a mini storage unit can also be stress-free when you contact the friendly, helpful and professional staff. A thorough investigation about the mini storage facility will surely help you with all your needs. Never fail to ask about insurance, security features and other moving services you might need in the future.
