Good organization goes a long way when it comes to making sure you get the best use out of your self storage in Fort Collins unit. If you’re busy and swamped for time or running by to pick something up quickly, you want to make sure your unit is in order and you can easily find what you need and leave. Here are a few tips and tricks we’ve learned on how to best organize your storage unit.
Maximize Vertical Space - Your unit is 10 feet tall. Make sure to bring racks or vertical storage dividers so you can get the most out of your unit. If it’s safe and stable, store it vertical.
Divide Your Space - Set areas of your unit for like minded items. One area should be for outdoor equipment, one should be for seasonal items, grab-and-go items should be near the front. If you divide your space well, you’ll be in and out quicker and make good use of your time.
Bring A Light - We all have jobs and time constraints. It’s rare you’ll be able to spend the middle of the day digging through our unit. Be sure to bring an extra flashlight for the times you need to grab something when the sun is going down.
Store In Boxes - Even if it’s a solid item, it goes a long way to store your belongings in a box. It’s quite easy for something to get knocked over when you’re in there and a box can help make sure nothing valuable gets tipped over.
Leave Room To Move - Nobody wants to unload their entire unit to get one box in the back. Be sure to leave room to move in and out of the unit so you can safely access all of your belongings when you swing by your unit.
