Helpful Hints for Storage Customers
- Place your storage items on 2x4 boards or on pallets to guard against dampness. Any concrete floor may become cold and damp as they sweat and become wet.
- Prepare your space by placing a protective cover on the floor under your goods.
- Use a good quality lock on your door. Cheap locks rust and do not provide good security.
- Insure your contents in case anything happens. Storage facilities are not responsible for your contents.
- Do not store food of any sort – this attracts rodents.
- CAUTION: Do not store anything COMBUSTIBLE (i.e. paint thinner, gasoline, solvents, paint, etc.).
- Sofas and love-seats can be stored on-end to save floor space. Always place a protective cover under the item on the concrete. Cushions should be wrapped in plastic and placed on top.
- If you stand mattresses on their side, “prop” them up so they stand straight. They may tend to bend out of shape and become lumpy.
