1. Keep Storage Supplies in a Convenient Location
If you have a lot of items to pack up, you will probably be moving through your house and storage unit quite a bit. Keep all your packing supplies handy in a tool box of sorts. Buy tape, bubble wrap, and any other storage supplies you need from our storage facilities. We are donating a percentage of our October retail sales to Susan G. Komen. You can help us make a difference this Breast Cancer Awareness Month! When you have gathered all your supplies, throw everything in a bag that you can easily bring along with you as you pack.
2. Buy Quality Bins and Boxes
The last thing you want is for your belongings to crash to the ground and break because your box could not hold everything. People tend to pack their biggest items in their largest boxes, but that can lead to an overly heavy box. Try to distribute the weight of heavy objects over a few boxes. Pack heavy items in small boxes, so moving and lifting is more manageable. For breakable objects, you may want to purchase completely new boxes. You will have peace of mind knowing your belongings will be safe from the moment you pack them.
