1. Gather Storage Supplies & Keep Them Handy

How many times have you been packing when you realize you have lost your tape…again? Certain supplies (like box cutters, tape, and screwdrivers) will be needed no matter what. Gather all your supplies ahead of time, and keep them in a bag or box nearby. You can bring that bag along with you when you pack and to your storage unit. To find all the supplies you need, come to your local Storage Sense! We are donating a portion of all our October supplies sales to Susan G. Komen for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

2. Get Organized Your Way

Do you color coordinate? Or are you more of a cheat sheet kind of person? The best way to help your future self when unpacking is to create a system for knowing what is in each of your boxes in storage. You can label the room and contents directly on the box. Or you can write down all the contents in a notebook and mark the boxes with numbers to differentiate them. Whatever way makes the most sense to you is the one you should use if you will also be the one unpacking boxes.
