The whole point of using a storage facility is to keep
possessions that you don’t have space to keep at home. With this in mind, it’s
ideal to keep these in good condition inside the storage unit. There are a
couple of ways to ensure your things stay well looked after during your storage
rental.
Packing Materials
Recommended packing materials are the way to go. Making sure
your items (especially breakables) are wrapped carefully with packing paper
will help to prevent breakages. Packing boxes should have a layer of packing
paper on the top and bottom, to give it that extra protection. Silver should be
wrapped in non-acid tissue, or in plastic bags, which should prevent any
tarnishing.
Preparing Furniture Before Storage
It’s also best if fridges, washing machines or dishwashers
are completely drained of water or frost before being packed in the storage
unit. Leakages in the unit can cause some pretty major
problems. Make sure any items placed in these larger items won’t rock around
inside and cause any damage. Taping the doors of things like wardrobes is a
good idea, but leave the doors to fridges and freezers open, or you’ll be left
with a seriously bad smell. Crumbs and food stains should be vacuumed and
cleaned thoroughly from furniture, so vermin aren’t attracted to the storage
unit.
Pretty easy steps, but they might just help keep your things
safe during your storage rental, and while they aren’t being kept under your
watchful eye.
Mostly self storage units are commonly located in easily reachable places that are near to the MRT station or any bus stops.
