When your home is
filled to the brim with belongings, Outta Sight Storage
offers the perfect solution—secure, clean, and spacious units designed to store
your more delicate items safely. The conundrum about properly storing your
antiques and furniture also arises. How do I protect them from weather-related
accidents? How can I avoid pests from getting into my boxes? To help you store
your valuables properly, we’ve put together key ideas to ensure year-round
protection.
Moving your belongings from your house to a storage unit is
always tedious. However, renting storage units is great for more than just
extra space. Different spaces in the house are less than ideal for storage. Garages
get too much traffic for fragile things, attics have unpredictable weather
conditions, and basements always seem damp. Either way, if you change your
mind, our month-to-month
leases make transferring your items to a larger unit or elsewhere simple!
Creating an inventory is an excellent step to ensure your items are easily accessible. Breaking down categories on lists or spreadsheets proves to be highly effective. You could even take photos or a video for visual references! Labeling every box is recommended so you won’t have to guess what’s inside before opening it.
Preparing for the transition to a new storage unit can be
daunting. We offer a wide array of storage unit options,
so whether you need to store a few boxes or large items from a fully furnished
home while you’re moving, we have it all! Preparing for the move begins at home
when you decide what to keep, donate, or dispose of. When was the last time you
wore that sweater? Could your best friend enjoy it more? Once you’ve sorted
your items, it’s time to consider security measures for anything valuable you
plan to store. Our property’s units are fully equipped with top-of-the-line security,
including locks, a fenced property, and 24-hour video recordings.
When you rent a storage unit, it’s important to pack your items with a purpose to keep them organized and prevent disarray. Some tips to ensure the safety of your possessions include:
Fragile items like electronics, furniture, and antiques need
extra padding for peace of mind. If you don’t properly store them, time won’t
be kind to them. To keep your possessions pristine, you must prepare for potential
damage from pests and weather conditions. Better safe than sorry! Remember to
back up electronics, remove cables, and store them in waterproof containers
when moving. Wrap fragile items, such as dishes and artwork, carefully. Check
the humidity levels in your storage unit and use packaging materials with excellent
insulation, like Styrofoam. Finally, go for latched storage boxes to ensure
your belongings remain safe for years to come.
