Packing and Protecting Your Belongings for Self Storage

When you're considering self storage from Storage Herne Hill, it's important to make sure that your belongings are properly packed before entering the units. After all, once your items are in storage, there's no guarantee of when you can get them out again if something goes wrong. So what steps should be taken to ensure your belongings stay safe and damage free?

Firstly, you need to make sure that everything has been packed correctly. This means using several layers of bubble wrap or foam padding between each item. Consider investing in sturdy boxes that are made specifically for moving and storage purposes - they will be much stronger than flimsy cardboard boxes and will offer better protection. Additionally, make sure that all breakable items are wrapped individually in plenty of bubble wrap before placing them into the box. When it comes to furniture, remove any legs or other detachable parts and pack them separately. Always fill any remaining space in the boxes with packing materials such as cushioning or foam chips to prevent shifting during transportation. Finally, use a marker to mark clearly which room each box belongs to - this will make life much easier when it comes to unpacking!

Choosing the Right Size Boxes

Another key factor when it comes to packing is selecting the right sized boxes for your needs. If you end up with too big a box, then they will become heavy and difficult to move around - not ideal if you're planning on moving house as well! On the other hand, smaller boxes can cause problems if you don't have enough space for all your belongings. Ideally, try and select a size somewhere in between these two extremes depending on what you need to store. That way you won't have to struggle with heavy boxes, but at the same time have enough space for everything.
