Storage Tips
How to organize your storage room:
- Leave a few inches of space between your items and the wall for better ventilation.
- Gather the things you are least likely to need during the time you are storing your belongings. Place these things in the room first.
- Store heaviest items on the bottom and lighter items on the top.
- Place cartons so that you can read the label which lists their contents.
- Place things you are most likely to need closest to the door for easy access.
Do:
- Disassemble items such as tables, bed frames and wrap or cover them with moving pads, sheets or light blankets.
- Store mirrors or pictures on end.
- Store clothing and draperies in wardrobe boxes or hangers.
- Label boxes on all six sides and keep a list for easy reference.
- When you disassemble electronics, such as computers, stereos, or things that have numerous cords, place small colored stickers on the cord and the same color sticker where the cord goes.
- Old photographs tend to curl over time. To keep them flat, place them between two pieces of cardboard and tape them together.
- Rubbermaid containers are great to store your items.
