1. Have blankets, draperies and out of season clothing cleaned, then pack them right on the hanger in a wardrobe box.2. Pack books flat, not standing on end (which may cause damage to the spines). Books are extremely heavy so don't pack too many in one box.
3. Drain gasoline and oil from lawn mowers and other items with small engines.
4. If you're storing tables and other furniture, remove legs and disassemble to conserve storage space.
5. Old photographs tend to curl over time. To keep them flat, place them between two pieces of cardboard and tape them together.
6. When packing your storage room, create a center aisle for access to all items.
7. Store items you'll need most often at the front of the unit.
8. Never overpack boxes. Overfilled boxes will rupture and topple when stacked.
9. Clean and dry appliances. Keep refrigerator doors slightly ajar and use the space inside these items for additional storage.
