I have had several conversations over the past few weeks about how to maximize the space within your storage unit.  Here are a few tips and tricks to think about when moving your items into a storage unit:

  • Start by placing your large, bulky items along the walls – think mattress, dresser, appliances, ect
    • Disassemble furniture when possible
  • Stack smaller items vertically utilizing the larger/bulky items as a foundation
  • If possible, leave an aisle in the middle to easily access your items in the future
  • Utilize plastic bins to store smaller items – these are better for stacking!
    • Don’t forget to mark the bin with what is inside
  • Free standing shelving is a great idea – be sure not to screw to the walls
  • Keep a small step stool/ladder in your unit for future use
