KeepSafe Storage can help take care of your valuables until you are ready to use them again or dispose of them when needed. Here are some tips on how you can make the most out of your Perth self storage unit no matter how small or big the unit may be. 

Making the Most Out of Your Perth Storage

Pick the Right Box For Your Storage Needs

When it comes to efficiency, picking the right box size matters; it would be best to settle on at least two box sizes for all of your items. Keeping the boxes the same size will help with space efficiency and stacking. Remember that having the same box size will make it easier to stack. There will be no awkward ledges or protruding corners, while also making sure that the boxes are balanced no matter how high they can be which will reduce the possibility of accidents and such.

Cardboard Boxes

When filling the boxes, make sure to fill the smaller boxes with heavier items, while the larger boxes should have lighter items. This will let you lift the boxes easier and makes stacking more convenient.

List Things You’ll Frequently Need From Storage

When storing, list down all of the things that you will frequently need to access. You will have to put them all at the front of your storage unit so you can easily access them when needed. By listing them down, organising your valuables will be easier and you don’t have to tear every box just to find one single item that you need. If you have relics, leftovers, artefacts, and such you might want to put them towards the back because you won’t probably need them that often.

Label Your Storage Boxes

You might think that you will remember each box in your storage unit, but to make sure, it would be best to label them all. Before sealing all boxes and storing them, it would be best to write down the contents or the categories of the boxes. Be as detailed as you can especially if you are filling boxes with the same items to avoid confusion. You can categorise them and list down the contents of each category. This will become easier for you to find what you’re looking for, instead of opening up multiple boxes in your storage.

Create An Aisle Inside Your Storage Unit

Of course, you need to be able to easily move around your storage unit and there’s no better way to do that but by creating an aisle. If your storage unit will allow it, you can even make two aisles. The reason behind this is that it will allow you to access larger boxes when needed. It will also help you access the ones at the back of your storage easily.

Creating an aisle or two to help yourself navigate your belongings easier to access.
