MAKE A LIST

Create a list with all of the items that are going into your storage sheds. This can help you to plan how much space you will need and also help you to keep track of where your stuff is when you need to find it down the track. That way everything will be easy for you to find when you need it.

SAY GOODBYE TO UNUSED STUFF

Its time to get brutal, there is no need to store things you don't want or need anymore. You can sell or donate unwanted items or dispose of them thoughtfully. Channel your inner Marie Kondo, do the items you are storing have a purpose and place in your life in the future.

GET STURDY, UNIFORM PACKING SUPPLIES

As tempting as it is to pick up used boxes at the supermarket, there is nothing worse than moving into or out of your storage shed with boxes that are falling apart! You can say goodbye to Nan's china tea set when the bottom falls out.

​

Uniform sized boxes are much easier and safer to stack. This will enable you to get more into your unit and save you money in the long run. Get good quality packing tape, bubble wrap and butchers paper to keep the contents of your boxes snug and secure. Last but not least don't forget to label your boxes so that you know what is inside them and how they should be handled!

Get a High Quality Padlock

What are the best padlocks to use for self-storage? There is no simple answer to that question. Choosing the right high-security padlock that meets your budget is simple only if you know what you are looking for. A good padlock that offers the best protection has the following features:

​

  • Made from high-quality materials

  • Fitted shank of a diameter that is at least 10mm

  • Robust latches

  • Several pins

  • Many key variations

 

You can also deter would-be thieves by placing 2 padlocks on your unit.
