Spring Cleaning?
Here are some things to consider when moving into a unit:
Label Your Boxes, Bins, and Containers
If you mark what type of items or specify the room contents on the outside of the box it will save you from digging through all your boxes when you need to find something. For example, simply marking âkitchenwareâ or âphotography equipmentâ on the outside of your boxes will help you know directly where to go when you need to find a specific item.
Place Frequently Used Items at the Front
Take a moment to assess which things you use most and will potentially need to access in the near future. Keep those items at the front by the door and you wonât have to crawl over all your stuff to find the things you need.
Sketch a Diagram
Of all the suggestions, this one is probably the most ingenious. As you fill your unit, draw a sketch of where boxes and items are stored to reference when you need them in the future.
Use Vertical Space
Using shelves in Storage is a great way to maximize the efficiency of the space you have while keeping your stuff organized and easy to access. Make sure you determine what size of unit you will need by using a âstorage size estimatorâ and then fully utilize the space you have by neatly stacking it with shelf-units.
Being organized is one of the most efficient ways to save time and energy, but also of avoiding the headaches that come with using self-storage. If you have any questions about what type of storage you might need, call or email us today.
