Transporting and storing furniture is high on the list of stress-inducing activities.\u00a0 In addition to being burdensome to rearrange, furniture is a significant purchase, and most people want to ensure that it stays in good condition. Ensuring that furniture remains secure and undamaged should be a top priority when utilizing portable storage containers to move your furniture or store it long-term. Read on for some helpful tips from the UNITS Moving and Portable Storage team of Ventura County<\/a>.<\/p>\n Clean furniture before storing.<\/strong><\/p>\n It is crucial to use appropriate cleaning solutions to address any spills, grime, or dirt on furniture before storing it in a portable storage container. This will keep stains from becoming set and harder to remove. After your furniture has air-dried, wipe off dust or dirt to ensure it’s as clean as possible before storage.<\/p>\n Wrap your furniture to avoid dings and dents.<\/strong><\/p>\n While our portable storage units are designed to ensure maximum stability and security, wrapping your furniture in moving blankets, old linens, or blankets will ensure that you avoid scratches or other potential damage. Box springs and mattresses should be covered in plastic to ensure they remain clean and free from allergens.<\/p>\n Store your furniture tactically.<\/strong><\/p>\n Furniture storage may seem daunting, but organizing each piece properly is a breeze with a bit of foresight. The back wall of the unit should be stacked with heavy items that you can place other things on. Lighter and softer items should be placed on top to utilize the space properly. It is essential to fill all the room \u2013 whether on top or under a table \u2013 as this prevents items from shifting while in transit. Lastly and perhaps most importantly, keep your essential items like mattresses towards the front so that they are easily accessible.<\/p>\n We hope these tips help as you store your furniture.
