STORAGE TIPS
Maximize your space and protect your belongings at Hwy 175 Mini Warehouses with these helpful storage tips. Whether you’re storing household items, business inventory, or vehicles, these best practices will help you stay organized, save space, and keep your items in great condition.
1. Choose the Right Unit Size
Selecting the right storage unit size ensures you only pay for the space you need. Our wide range of unit sizes makes it easy to store anything from a few boxes to the contents of an entire home or business inventory.
2. Use Drive-Up Access for Easy Loading
Take advantage of our drive-up storage units to load and unload directly from your vehicle. This is especially helpful for heavy furniture, equipment, and frequently accessed items.
3. Label Everything Clearly
Clearly labeling boxes on multiple sides makes it easier to find items later without unpacking everything. This saves time and keeps your storage unit organized.
4. Create an Aisle for Easy Access
Leave a small walkway inside your unit so you can access items stored in the back without having to move everything around.
5. Protect Items from Dust and Moisture
Use plastic bins with secure lids for added protection against dust and humidity. This is especially useful for long-term storage in both interior and ground-floor units.
6. Disassemble Large Furniture
Break down beds, tables, and shelving units to save space and prevent damage. Keep screws and hardware in labeled bags taped to the furniture.
7. Store Frequently Used Items Near the Front
Place items you may need regular access to near the front of your unit for quick and convenient retrieval, especially with our 24/7 access hours.
8. Use Pallets or Boards Off the Floor
Elevating your belongings slightly off the ground helps protect them and improves airflow within your unit.
9. Take Advantage of Secure Facility Features
Store with confidence knowing our facility offers fenced and gated access, electronic gate entry, 24/7 video surveillance, and bright lighting for added security.
10. Plan for Vehicle and RV Storage Properly
If you’re using our outdoor RV or vehicle parking, ensure your vehicle is properly covered, locked, and maintained before long-term storage.
11. Make Use of Online Bill Pay
Stay on top of your account with our convenient online bill pay system, helping you manage your storage unit from anywhere at any time.
12. Keep an Inventory List
Maintain a simple list of everything stored in your unit. This helps you stay organized and quickly locate items when needed.
13. Pack Heavy Items in Small Boxes
Use smaller boxes for heavy items like books or tools to make lifting safer and more manageable.
14. Seal Boxes Properly for Long-Term Storage
Use strong packing tape to securely seal boxes and prevent dust or pests from getting inside.
15. Visit Your Unit Regularly
With 24/7 access, you can periodically check on your belongings to ensure everything remains in good condition.
