How to Organize Your San Antonio Storage Unit Like A Pro

Published: June 01, 2022

Portable storage containers are handy for keeping your stuff, but if you don’t organize them properly, they can get out of control. After all, if you fill your box with too many family memories or holiday decorations, it may soon become a catastrophe!

While it may be difficult to keep things in order, follow these tips and tricks from UNITS Moving and Portable Storage of San Antonio to make organizing a storage container easy!

Purchase supplies and create a list

Begin by gathering all of your required supplies, such as totes, boxes, tape, tags, and paint. A dolly may also make moving easier. To keep track of everything that will be placed in the container, categorize it and make a list of things that will go inside.

Store large, heavy items towards the back of the unit

Fill the rear of your container with large and hefty objects. If feasible, break down your furniture and store it on its side to gain more room. Before loading large items onto your box stack, seek accessible vertical storage space.

Place items that you use more frequently in the front of the unit

Keep the essentials you’ll need now at the front of your storage area, even if you’re only storing things for a short time. Labeling containers is yet another fantastic idea. Using transparent storage containers rather than cardboard boxes is also a wonderful choice since it allows you to view what’s inside without having to remove the lid!
