Pre-planning and organization are essential for making the most of your self storage unit. Here are 10 practical tips to optimize your space and cost efficiency:
- Create an Inventory: List all items you plan to store. This helps keep track and simplifies retrieval.
- Choose the Right Containers: Use uniform-sized boxes for easy stacking. For long-term storage, clear plastic bins can reduce the need for labelling.
- Use Sturdy Boxes: Ensure boxes can hold 25-30 lbs. Avoid overloading to prevent damage.
- Label Thoroughly: For cardboard boxes, label all four sides and number them for inventory. Seal securely with packing tape.
