Tips for Organizing Your Storage Unit
- Use sturdy moving boxes or heavy-duty plastic containers of uniform size.
- Group boxes by fragility or weight, with heavier boxes on the bottom and fragile items on top.
- Stack boxes no more than four high. You can also place boxes on top of sturdy furniture.
- Place items you know you'll need to access toward the front of your storage unit.
