How to Organize, Store, and Pack Your Holiday Decorations

Published: September 01, 2022

The majority of people’s holiday decorations are a hodgepodge of objects accumulated over time. When it comes to decorating, ensuring that everything is in its proper place and operating correctly may be difficult.

By carefully storing your holiday decorations, you can keep them in good condition and use them again next year. UNITS Moving and Portable Storage of Memphis offers the following hints for arranging, packing, and preserving your Christmas decorations.

1. Begin by going through all of your holiday decorations. Only keep things that are still functioning and are in frequent use. Anything broken or useless should be discarded or donated.

2. Sort your decorations by topic once you’ve looked them over. For example, keep all of your tree ornaments in one location and all of the lights in another. Everything will have its own place this way.

3. Label each box of decorations so you know what goes where.

4. Use smaller boxes for tiny things like glass ornaments, and bigger ones for larger objects like garlands and wreaths.

5. Fill each box with packing material, such as bubble wrap or tissue paper, to keep your decorations safe.

Keep your packed boxes in a cool, dry place where they won’t be exposed to the sun. Basements and attics are excellent choices.

You can maintain your holiday decorations in excellent shape until next year if you follow these ideas. Are you ready for your own storage container? Give UNITS Moving and Portable Storage of Memphis a call today!
