How to Save Space When Packing for Storage

Published: February 01, 2022

You don’t have to choose between saving money and having room to store your goods when it comes to storage. Proper packing of your belongings may help you save money on storage! Here are some storage organizing tips and ideas from UNITS Moving and Portable Storage of Houston Gulf Coast.

Types of boxes and containers to hold personal belongings

Filing boxes are a wonderful method to save space. They securely stack and conserve room while still allowing you to stuff larger things inside. Consider arranging your clothing in special wardrobe boxes. Using the right storage containers can also be an excellent use of vertical storage space!

Stacking and storing with efficiency

When folding clothing, make sure to minimize wrinkles and ensure that everything fits neatly when done. Linens, towels, bed coverings, throws, and comforters should all be folded flat before being stored. If you don’t have enough room in your boxes and bins, sell or give things you can’t store to charity.

Disassemble furniture

Before putting away your furniture, make sure everything will fit well. Everything should be taken apart to ensure that all components fit properly. If you can remove table legs from the table top or stack things on top of each other to save space in the unit, do so.

UNITS has a variety of portable storage containers that allow you to store everything in one convenient spot. We hope that utilizing these packing ideas, you will be able to make the most of your area as soon as possible!
