Tips to Maximize Space in Your Self-Storage Unit
Maximizing the space inside your unit can significantly impact its functionality. Efficient packing and vertical stacking ensure you get the most value out of every square foot.
Here are effective strategies to maximize your self storage unit:
-
Use Uniform Boxes: Choose sturdy, similarly sized boxes to make stacking easier and safer.
-
Label Everything Clearly: Labelling boxes helps you locate items quickly without opening each container.
-
Disassemble Large Items: Take apart bed frames, tables, and furniture where possible to reduce the space they occupy.
-
Stack Strategically: Place heavier items at the bottom and lighter, fragile ones on top. Use the full height of the unit.
-
Create an Aisle: Leave a small walkway inside your unit to reach items stored at the back without unloading the entire space.
-
Store Vertically: Store items like mattresses, sofas, and headboards upright to free up floor space.
Document Storage
Keeping physical records of your family or business finances is crucial. Protect your essential documents in specially allocated spaces at our expertly designed shelving and storage infrastructure.
Vehicle Storage
Our professional vehicle storage facilities, with garage-style parking inside your unit, help you keep your vehicle secure and safe from the elements. We offer unlimited access during business hours. When you deposit your vehicle, please provide proof of ownership.
