How to Organize, Store, and Pack Your Holiday Decorations

Published: November 01, 2022

It can be difficult to ascertain if your holiday decorations from years past are still in good enough condition to use, but by storing them properly, you can increase their lifespan. UNITS Moving and Portable Storage of Miami offers the following hints for arranging, packing, and preserving your Christmas decorations.

1. Begin by going through all of your holiday decorations. Get rid of anything that isn’t functioning or isn’t used frequently.

2. Sort your decorations by topic once you’ve looked them over. Having a specific place for each decoration will make the Christmas set-up a breeze. Hang all your tree ornaments in one area and keep the lights separate. This way, you won’t be searching high and low for that one missing piece.

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.

6. Keep your boxes in a cool, dry place that isn’t sunny to keep the delicate contents of them. Attics and basements are excellent places to store them.

Try out these ideas if you want your holiday decorations to stay in pristine condition until next year. They just might have you running to buy your own storage container! Give UNITS Moving and Portable Storage of Miami a call today!
