A small storage unit may be the answer if space is an issue in your home, office or garage. That’s great! The mini storage units are very popular. A mini-storage unit is available in nearly every US town. It is possible to make your storage units work better. They are tips on storage that I have used for years, you can try here.
Tip One – Keeping your stuff dry.
You can use cargo pallets for your dry boxes. This has nothing to do with rain, snow, or changing seasons. In spring concrete floors will begin to sweat when the temperature is higher than their surface. As the temperature begins to rise, your concrete floor may begin sweating. When you place the boxes on pallets and increase air circulation around your stored goods, it will allow them to dry faster. The boxes will dry out underneath. Allowing for air circulation, leave some room between the walls of storage units and your objects.
Two Tips — Store items frequently used close to your front door.
In your storage space, you should keep an item which will be used frequently. Searching through hundreds and thousands of boxes is dangerous. Not to mention, it’s a time-waster. My sons are the type of children that want to borrow anything and everything. I love golf. If I don’t use my clubs then I put them into my storage unit. They are available at the entrance of my storage unit so that I can use them when needed. Take a hold of them now to get moving.
Do you know your insurance coverage?
Please check the details of your policy as a renter, or homeowner to determine if goods you store at rental properties are covered. A mini storage unit will usually provide insurance in the case of an emergency. They do not cover broken items, or damaged goods that were damaged because of poor handling. You can insure both your classic car and collection of chinaware.
