Protecting Your Belongings for Storage

Hello Space+ experts highly recommend you protect your belongings for the journey to your new home. We care about your belongings as if they were our own. Hello Space+ storage facilities offer moving supplies like boxes, plastic wrap, and tape for anyone looking to avoid dirt, extra scratches, or unwanted damage.

Keep wraps on your items and utilize boxes while they are in storage. This helps keep your existing items protected when you move things around or move more items into your storage unit. For items that might need a little extra attention, consider a climate-controlled storage unit.

Keep Your Unit Organized From the Beginning

Start off on the right foot by creating an organizational system for your belongings before you move in. Clearly labeling everything and making an inventory list allows you to easily grab your items and go once they are in your unit. 

Consider packing your storage unit strategically. Place heavier, more stackable items in the back and more fragile items toward the front or on top of sturdier boxes or furniture pieces. Don’t forget to leave a clear path in the middle so you can easily walk through your entire unit.
