Space Saver Tips

Consider creating a path down one side or through the centre of your unit so that you can see and access all your items.

• Use adjustable shelving for easy and efficient access to boxes.
• Leave a step stool in the unit so that you can always reach items on the top shelf.
• Hang bikes or garment bags from the ceiling.
• Store chesterfields and mattresses on end – boxes piled on top of them would damage their springs.
• Clothes and fabrics should be cleaned before being stored and can be stored in drawers and wardrobes. But don’t cram them in – a little air circulation is a good thing.
• If storing quality wood items for a long time, consider waxing or using a wood treatment before storing, then cover with a thick blanket so you can store other items on top without risk of scratching.
• Label all boxes on the sides and top so that you can see the list of contents no matter how you place your boxes in the unit
• Keep a thick marker on a string in your unit, when you change the contents of a box, change the label.
• Remove oil and gasoline from all small engine equipment before it is stored (including lawn mowers, chainsaws, etc.)
• Use the space under tables and inside appliances and cabinets.
