PACKING TIPS


To get the best results, follow our helpful hints to pack your container.

  •  Plan your storage space.
  •  Place those items that you need to access often in the front of the unit.
  •  Leave a small space around the perimeter of your storage unit to aid circulation.
  •  Look Up!, Utilise all of the space available to you, including the height.
  •  Stack the lighter boxes on top of the heavier boxes.
  •  Don't over-pack cartons or they will be too hard to lift.
  •  If tables won't disassemble, place a mat or protective plastic on the ground and lay the tabletop face down on the floor with the legs pointing up.
  •  Cover stuffed furniture with cardboard, blankets or plastic covers to protect against dust.
  •  Don't place heavy or sharp objects on top of upholstered furniture.
  •  Never lay paintings or mirrors flat. Ensure they are wrapped or placed in proper picture/mirror cartons.
  •  To ensure safe storage: Do not store anything combustible (i.e. paint thinner, gasoline, solvents, paint, etc.)
  •  Do not store any living things (including plants), or perishable goods (especially foodstuffs).
  •  Empty petrol from mowers, whipper snipers, etc.
  •  Ensure gas bottles are empty and BBQ or cooking surfaces are clean.
