Determining what you need:
Hanging clothes can be stored in our specialty designed wardrobe containers (2' x 2' x 4'). To determine how much will fit, measure the length of each bar in the closet or armoire you wish to put into storage. Each box has 2' of bar so you can see what will transfer to the container. For use of the wardrobe container with adjustable shelving, you can stack up to 16 cubic feet of stuff on the adjustable shelves, up to a maximum weight of 100 lbs.
Our trunk containers provide 3 cubic feet (28"x20"x15") of storage and are ideal for larger, bulky items such as shoes, sweaters, hand bags etc. Generally speaking, dense heavy items such as books, dishes, or card collections should be placed in the tote container, which measures 27"x17"X12".
Our record file container can hold 30" of hanging files in letter or legal format.
For items that do not fit into a box, we bubble and shrink wrap on site.
Packing your boxes:
- Do not overfill your container. The door or hinged lid should close normally.
- Be sure that any breakable items are carefully wrapped in bubble wrap to ensure they are protected against bumps and jars during transport.
- Keep your inventory form handy so you can record what you put into each container so when you want it back, you know which container to have returned.
- Use our supplied locks to seal your containers (instructions detailed in your welcome kit).
- Once packing is complete, give us a call to schedule a pick-up.
