STORAGE TIPS
6 Self Storage Tips From The Pros
Renting the unit is the easy part. Packing it right is what actually protects your stuff and keeps you from paying for space you don’t need. Here’s what our crews at 803 Cheap Movers or Junk Removal recommend after years of helping Seven Oaks customers load up storage units.
Pick the Right Size Unit
“People pick out too-small storage units all the time,” said Paul Packer, who started 803 Cheap Movers or Junk Removal in Lexington, SC in 2016. A smaller unit looks cheaper on paper, but if you end up needing a second one or have to leave furniture behind. It costs more in the long run. When in doubt, size up.
Build a Base Before You Stack
Just like loading a moving truck, start with a solid base of boxes or heavy furniture at the back of the unit, then build upward and toward the door. Keep frequently needed items: seasonal decorations, tools, documents, near the front so you’re not unpacking the whole unit to find them.
Protect Furniture with Blankets and Wrap
Cover upholstered furniture, mattresses, and wood pieces with moving blankets before stacking anything on or around them, and use stretch wrap to keep dust and moisture off. This matters even more in storage than in a moving truck, since items may sit untouched for months.
Leave a Walking Path
Don’t pack a unit wall-to-wall. Leaving a narrow aisle down the middle means you can actually get to your things later without unloading the whole unit onto the pavement.
Go Climate Controlled for Sensitive Items
Electronics, photos, wood furniture, and important documents can warp, mold, or degrade in a standard outdoor unit exposed to South Carolina’s heat and humidity. Most facilities on this list offer climate controlled options. It costs a little more, but it’s worth it for anything you actually care about.
Label Everything Clearly
“The clearer things are labeled, the faster everything goes, loading in and finding things later,” Paul said. Use a marker on the box itself rather than just on tape, since tape can fall off or get covered by other boxes.
