Storage Tips...
Organizing Your Unit
Plan ahead. Think accessibility.
If you will need to access your stored items often, make sure you leave sufficient aisle space. That way, you can leave gaps between your things and access them without having to move anything around. Always place the more frequently needed items close to the entrance of your storage unit.

Storing Your Things
1. When stacking your boxes, place durable, heavy items on the
bottom and lighter, fragile items on the top.
2. Use boxes of the same size. They'll be easier to stack.
3. Move in the heavy, bulky items first.
4. For refrigerators and freezers, be sure to defrost, clean and dry
them out. When storing them, leave the doors slightly ajar to
prevent mold from growing inside.
5. Do not store any hazardous or combustible items such as petrol,
cleaning fluids, paint, etc. Drain petrol from lawn mowers, power
tools etc. prior to storing inside.
6. Do not store food items as they may attract rodents and/or
pests.
7. Check your unit once a month to make sure none of your boxes
have shifted or collapsed.
8. Be sure to use a good quality locks to secure your unit.
