Helpful Storage Tips for Crafting Supplies

Published: February 01, 2022

If you’re an Etsy shop owner, or just love doing lots of crafts in your free time, there’s one universal truth: the clutter piles up. Whether it be stacks of fabric, drawers full of beads, or a couple mannequins, it’s almost impossible to avoid the clutter. However, there are some solutions! The experts at UNITS® Moving and Portable Storage of San Antonio have gathered some helpful tips when it comes to organizing and storing your craft materials.

• Find the right size for your supplies. If you’re a shop owner, you should consider one of our 12’ or 16’ portable storage containers. Our all-steel constructed, weather-resistant storage containers, along with our climate controlled facilities, make the perfect pair to store your bigger items like filing cabinets of supplies or mannequins. Easels and sewing machines can be hard and expensive to replace – place your trust in UNITS® Moving and Portable Storage of San Antonio’s ability to store your items with care.

• Organize your crafting supplies. While cardboard boxes are cheaper and easier to come by, we recommend using clear plastic bins labeled with what’s inside. That way, you’ll be able to easily see where you put things within your storage container, allowing for easy access. Remember to place like materials with each other – fabrics should go with fabrics, paper materials should go with other paper materials.
• Place your supplies strategically. Place your bins along with your equipment along the perimeter. This way, you’ll be able to navigate the interior of your storage unit to access what you need quickly.

And remember to call UNITS® Moving and Portable Storage of San Antonio at (210) 591-7437 to reserve your portable storage container with the best in the business!
