Appliances: Before placing your appliances in
storage, it is always best to clean them beforehand. After it has been cleaned,
make sure that it is dry to avoid molding and mildew. Also, make sure that the
appliance is completely empty before placing it in storage.
Leather furniture: Clean and treat with leather
conditioner before placing in storage.
Photos: Because photographs tend to curl
over time, place them in between pieces of cardboard to keep
them flat before putting them in storage. However, because photos generally do
not take up much space, it is best to keep important photos with you. Never put
irreplaceable pictures in storage.
Mattresses: To protect from dust and
moisture, place mattresses in plastic covers before storing.
What not to store: Additionally, there are some items
that are not suitable for storage. Do not store any of the following:
-Flammables (gas, diesel, oil,
paint, etc.)
-Jewelry or other expensive items
-Firearms, munitions, gunpowder, and
explosives
-Plants or any other living things
-Hazardous
materials and waste storage (lead paint, asbestos, urea formaldehyde, petroleum,
methane, medical waste, etc.)
-Cash
These
are just a few guidelines to aide you in your storage preparations. If you have
