Winter Self Storage Tips
- Add a stabilizer to oil or drain the gas tank before storing your lawn mower.
- Resurface gardening tools with a new coat of paint and sharpen metal edges to ensure tools are ready when spring arrives.
- Remove the grate and burners from your grill so you can thoroughly soak them and avoid rodents in your unit. We work hard to keep our property pest free, help us stay pest free by not storing food.
- Now that the pool is closed store chemicals along the wall in your storage unit. Stacking these items on top of each other can cause a spill if the lid cracks or there is too much weight.
- Find labels for all your boxes in our office along with tie down ropes, tape, and wheel chocks.
- Outdoor patio furniture should be properly cleaned before entering the storage unit. Use soap and water to remove dirt and more abrasive chemicals for tough stains.
- Metal can rust fast if left to fend for itself against moisture. Sand down any spots showing rust already and give the piece a fresh coat of paint.
