Keep a List of Everything You Are Storing in Your Unit
It can be difficult to remember everything you placed in your storage space. You might’ve had larger pieces like furniture and beds put away, but smaller items can be tricky. Consider your valuables, too, including artwork, pictures, electronics, and clothing. Take photos of everything and inventory descriptions.
Use Clear Storage Bins for Your Space Instead of Cardboard Boxes
Cardboard boxes are good to use, but clear bins can help make keeping track easier. They make it possible for you to find what you need more easily. Those bins offer a clear look inside the container, so you know you can find what you need. That helps you stay organized even with the extra cost.
Store Larger Items Towards the Back of the Unit
You know the items you use most frequently. If you need to store a bed you’re not using, that’s one that you’d put in the back. Televisions, seasonal clothes, children’s toys are some examples of things you may need more often. Furniture may be something you can store in the back.
Make Sure That You Label Everything You Store
No matter what you’re putting away, make sure you label it. No matter what you’re looking for, there’s a chance you’ll forget where you put it. Don’t allow yourself to forget where that important family photo album is. Make sure you clearly mark them with permanent markers or printed labels. Do you need more great storage ideas?
