Tips for Student Storage
While the size requirements for storing personal belongings may vary depending on the items being stored and the renter's organization skills, the guide below can be used as a starting point to help determine the appropriate storage size.
Step One - Make a List of What You’re Storing
Write down everything you plan to store. This will help you decide what unit size you needs and ensure you know everything you are supposed to bring for moving into your unit. It also allows you to check back as a reference if you’re unsure whether the item is in storage or not.
Step Two - Label Everything Clearly
Use labels on all sides of your boxes so you can quickly identify what’s inside without unpacking. This saves time when you're back to retrieve something. It is also a smart idea to get clear storage bins if you can.
Step Three - Stack Smart
Place heavier boxes on the bottom and lighter ones on top. Use furniture like desks or shelves to create layers and maximize vertical space.
Step Four - Keep Frequently Used Items Near the Front
Store anything you might need soon toward the front of the unit for quick access. Also, be sure to leave some space or create a pathway in your unit so you can easily access all your items.
