Planning Storage To Suit Your Needs
Please separate items you are likely to need access to while using the storage – these need to be stored last.
Having most of the items packed in cartons makes packing/unpacking easier and faster. This will also keep all items in the best condition.
Depending on the size of your storage unit and the amount of goods being stored, consider leaving space for walkways.
Place large, heavy items at the rear of the storage unit, unless you need to access these during storage.
Work forward towards the front of the unit placing heavier items and cartons closer to the floor and placing fragile items above them.
Finally, items you are likely to need easy access to go last.

Packaging Protects Your Goods
As a rule of thumb – everything other than furniture, whiteware, beds and suitcases is best packed in boxes.
Make your life easier by placing heavy items in smaller boxes
Protect fragile items for peace of mind
Clearly label cartons and make a list of what is where. Use a system. It is a good idea to number boxes room by room and keep a list of box numbers with their content for easy unpacking and access if needed.

Packing of special items
Electronics and Computers are best kept in their original packaging and stored upright. Otherwise, you can bubble wrap them and store in suitable size boxes. Remove the batteries from battery-powered items as they may leak over time.
Fridges and Freezers must be completely defrosted, cleaned and dried before going into storage. Wedge the door ajar to ensure they remain fresh
Other Whiteware should be cleaned and drained before going into storage
Mirrors, Windows & Paintings are best protected with bubble-wrap and/or placed in a flat carton. These are best stored in an upright position
Dishes, Glassware, Ceramics and other fragile items are best protected by being wrapped individually in bubble-wrap or packing paper and then placed in a carton. Look for ways of nesting items and ensure all gaps in cartons are filled in with packing material or something soft. This will keep your fragile items well protected and prevent them from moving around in cartons whilst in transit. Label all cartons containing fragile items and avoid storing heavy items on top of these cartons.
Furniture needs to be cleaned and dried before storing. It’s best to cover sofas and chairs. Wooden furniture is best polished and then wrapped with corrugated cardboard. Mattresses and bases are best stored by being placed into mattress covers. All other items should be wrapped or covered as required
Tools and Machinery have to be cleaned before storage. Drain fuel and oil, place in original boxes and store upright. Lawn mowers are very prone to oil leakage when stored on their side and spillage can damage other goods in your space. Gas bottles from barbeques and heaters must be emptied before storing.
