Remember to Pack Vertically
In a recent guide, Moving.com explains the importance of utilizing your entire storage unit space. If possible, look into adding shelves for your storage unit, and make sure to store larger items, such as furniture, toward the back and bottom of your storage unit. Large objects make a great foundation for stacking other—lighter—belongings on top. Another packing tip we recommend is to create an aisle in your storage unit, so you can just as easily access the back corner as the front by the door.
Disassemble Your Larger Items
It might seem like more work at the time, but you will be thanking yourself later. Any furniture items, exercise equipment, or similar items should be disassembled prior to their storage. Use plastic wrap, tape, and bubble wrap to safely secure all parts of a larger item in one place. If you plan to store long-term, these are the items that can risk misshaping and moisture-related damage.
