Citywide Self Storage

Citywide Storage Tips

• Place frequently used items near the door and leave a path to the rear of the space.

• Leave an open-air space around the outside of your unit to aid in ventilation.

• Use the inside of appliances and dressers to store things.

• Store sofas and mattresses on end using a pallet.

• Pack books in small boxes for easier lifting.

• Store mirrors and pictures on edge–never flat.

• Use wardrobe boxes for storing clothing, and put shoes on bottom.

• Always drain all gas from lawn and garden equipment prior to storage to avoid corrosive damage.

• Use furniture drawers to hold delicate items. Wrap them in bubble wrap or newspaper.

• Be careful not to store anything combustible (such as paint and chemicals) or perishable (such as food that is not permanently sealed).

• Use trashcans to store shovels, rakes and other lawn equipment.

• When storing delicate heirlooms, use specially constructed boxes, such as wardrobe boxes, and utilize dehumidifiers to prevent mildew build up.

• Break down items (such as table legs) and store large furniture (like tabletops and sofas) on end to save space.

• Use protective covers.

• When storing business files, label all boxes and construct aisles so files are easily seen and accessible.

• Use furniture pads or plastic covers for sofas, chairs, matresses, etc.
