Handy tips for packing and storing
Storage Tips
Leave a walkway to the rear of the unit.
Disassemble bed frames to save space.
Place frequently used items close to the door.
Fill your boxes, but don’t over fill —partially full or bulging boxes may tip or collapse.
Store couches (except sofa beds) on end to save space.
Place fragile items near the top of the unit to prevent breakage.
Label your cartons and keep a list of the labeled cartons. (Get labels in our office.)
Consider shelving to make maximum use of your space.
Adding bay leaves to boxes will discourage many pests and pets.
Clean refrigerators and freezers before storing
Leave refrigerator and freezer doors slightly ajar.
Use refrigerator and freezer space for storage.
Wrap mirrors and pictures with paper pads or use mirror boxes. Never store flat.

Packing Tips
Use high quality moving and storage boxes.
For easier lifting, pack books and heavy objects in smaller boxes.
Hanging your clothes in wardrobe boxes will keep them in good condition.
Use the same size boxes for easy stacking.
Fill boxes completely to prevent collapsing when stacked.
Stuff open spaces with newsprint.
Seal boxes completely with packing tape to keep out dust.
Label all boxes and wardrobes and make a list.
