Maximize Your Storage Space with These Expert Tips

At Atomic Storage, we want to ensure you get the most out of your storage unit. Here are some helpful tips to keep your belongings safe, organized, and easily accessible.

Packing Tips

1. Use Uniform Box Sizes: Using boxes of the same size makes stacking easier and more stable. It also maximizes the use of space within your unit.

2. Label Everything: Clearly label each box on multiple sides so you can easily identify the contents without having to open it.

3. Pack Heavy Items in Small Boxes: This makes them easier to carry and prevents the boxes from becoming too heavy to lift.

4. Use Quality Packing Materials: Invest in sturdy boxes, packing tape, bubble wrap, and packing paper to protect your items during transport and storage.

5. Fill Boxes to Capacity: Under-filled boxes can collapse, while overfilled boxes can burst. Ensure each box is filled to capacity but not overly heavy.

Storage Organization Tips

1. Create an Inventory List: Keep a detailed list of all items stored in your unit. This helps you keep track of your belongings and makes it easier to find specific items later.

2. Map Out Your Unit: Draw a simple map showing where different categories of items are stored. Place frequently accessed items near the front of the unit.

3. Use Shelving Units: If space allows, install freestanding shelving units to keep boxes and items off the floor and organized.

4. Leave an Aisle: Create a small aisle down the center or side of your unit to access items at the back without having to move everything around.

5. Utilize Vertical Space: Stack boxes and items as high as safely possible to maximize your storage space.
