Whether you’re storing personal belongings, business inventory, or large equipment, proper planning and a strategic approach help you make the most out of every inch.
Organise by Priority
Place items you need most frequently near the front of your unit for easy access.
Stack seasonal or rarely used items at the back.
Dismantle Large Items
Where possible, dismantle bulky items like furniture to save space.
Wrap pieces in protective covers to prevent scratches or dents.
Store screws and small parts in labeled bags taped to the corresponding items.
Maximise Vertical Space
Stack heavier boxes at the bottom and lighter boxes on top to maintain stability.
Store frequently used items near the front of the unit for easy access.
Keep Walkways Clear
Leave a small aisle in your storage unit to access items without rearranging everything.
Climate Considerations
Avoid storing items that are sensitive to temperature changes. If necessary, use protective covers or insulated materials for added protection.
