Packing and Storage Tips

Packing Tips to Get the Most From Your Storage Unit

Make the most of your space and keep your belongings safe with these simple expert tips. Packing your unit properly not only protects your items, it can also help you fit more in — saving you money and making access easier whenever you need it.

Place large items at the back first
Start with heavy furniture and bulky items such as sofas, wardrobes and appliances. Position them at the back and along the walls to create a strong, stable base for stacking lighter boxes.

Maximise every inch of space
Fill gaps with smaller boxes, bags or soft items. Using all available space ensures you get the best value from your storage unit without needing to upgrade to a larger size.

Use the full height of your unit
Most storage units have generous ceiling height. Standing items like mattresses, bed frames and tables upright allows you to store more efficiently and keep everything organised.

Keep important items within easy reach
Place anything you may need regularly — such as documents, tools or seasonal items — near the front of your unit so you can access them quickly.

Label your boxes to save time later
Clearly labelled boxes make it easy to find what you need without unpacking everything.
