Staying organized is next to impossible when you don’t have the space you need. If your growing family, booming business, or downsized home has you feeling a little cramped, StorageNow USA can help.

Below are some Storage Tips to consider:
- Place pallets, tarps or plastic sheets on the floor of your unit before storing any items. Allow for proper ventilation by not packing items right up against the walls.
- Leave access space at the front of your unit, and keep your frequently used items where you can easily reach them.
- Stacking uniform sized boxes helps maximize your available space.
Don’t stack higher than you can comfortably reach. - Store high value items toward the back of your storage unit in unmarked boxes.
- Protect furniture, including mattresses and box springs, with plastic covers and stand on end.
- Wipe metal items such as bicycles or tools with a slightly oily rag to protect against rusting.
- Never use your storage unit for items such as live animals, perishables, explosives or flammable liquid and fuels.
- Don’t store food items that are not sealed in glass or metal containers.
- Take precautions against theft and damage by using a quality lock on your storage unit.
- Don’t store paint or oil rags.
