Self Storage Tips

• Use freestanding shelves. Do not put screws or nails in walls or hang anything from or across walls. Avoid stacking boxes too high.
  
  
• Clean all the furniture, appliance and clothing to remove crumbs, stains or oils. Cover upholstered and wood furniture with cloth not plastic.
  
  
• Appliances must be thoroughly clean and dry. Keep freezer and refrigerator doors slightly ajar. Remove vacuum cleaner bags and cover openings.
  
  
• Store mattresses and box springs on long edges. Wrap for protection and elevate off floor.
  
• Store each mirror and glass top in sturdy crate on edge, not flat.
  
  
• To preserve metal, wipe surface with a cloth containing drops of machine oil.
  
  
• Do not store food, plants or any other items that may attract insects or pests. Do not store soaps or aromatics.
  

• Do not store flammable, hazardous, pressurized or toxic materials nor liquids and aerosols that may spill or burst. Drain oil and gas from equipment.
