Tips For Storing Your Property

  When storing your property:

1. Store small, expensive items such as stereo equipment, TVs, camcorders, in the back of the storage space in unmarked boxes. Place large items such as furniture and beds in front of them.
2. Wrap glass and breakable items in plastic bubble wrap and cover them with linens for additional protection.
3. Don’t lean stored property against the walls of your storage space.
4. Where possible, store all boxes and furniture on wooden pallets or on boards placed on the floor of the storage space. This helps minimize potential water damage.
5. Leave appliance doors open slightly so that moisture does not build within.
6. Do not store food items. This will attract mice and other pests.
7. Make a complete list of all goods stored. Include a description, model number, and serial number.
8. To prove ownership, keep all sales receipts, proof of purchase, owner's manuals and warranties.
9. A photo or videotaped record of your stored goods is also helpful. Keep all records in a safe place away from your storage space.

  When moving out:

1. Give the storage company proper notice of your intent to move out.
2. Remove all of your belongings.
3. Dispose of any trash.
4. Take your lock with you.
