Packing Your Belongings

Whether you are moving home, office or want to store some of your belongings, it is vital that your items are packed correctly to keep them in perfect condition during transit and storage.

The Essentials For Packing

Before you start packing, ensure you have collected all the packing materials you need. Look carefully at what you are planning to pack; it can be easy to underestimate the number of boxes you will need so take time to work out how many boxes you will need.

When packing your things into storage (or preparing for a move) it is key to have your essentials ready so that time isn't wasted dashing to the shops for forgotten items. 

As well as boxes, you will be likely to need:
  • Marker pens (to label your boxes – such a time saver!)
  • Bubble wrap (giving extra protection to those delicate items)
  • Packaging Tape (stronger than regular tape to keep your boxes sealed. Tape guns are also a worthwhile investment – they are another time saver and make assembling and sealing boxes much easier!)

Time To Pack!

Packing for a house or office move is only temporary, but packing for long term storage is a little different. You will need to choose the right packaging (and pack well) to ensure you stored items will be protected over time.

When it comes to storage, the problem most people encounter is damp due to moisture in the storage environment e.g. attics. When packing items for storing, ensure each item is dry and clean to prevent dampness. At Cube Self Storage, our climate controlled units help reduce moisture.

Storing Delicate Items

If you are planning to store delicate items such as glassware and ornaments, line your boxes with bubble wrap for added protection. To protect the individual items you will need enough bubble wrap to go around each item at least twice. Packing paper will also stop items rolling around within their boxes during transit.

Special storage boxes such as wardrobe boxes are ideal for hanging clothing, costumes or special items such as wedding dresses, and it is always worth protecting each item of clothing with plastic covers.

Know your storage

There is nothing more frustrating than not remembering what you have stored and which box it is stored in. As you pack each box, record the contents in an inventory and label each box. This will make locating your items much easier once they are in storage and will save you searching through each box!

Seasonal Storage

If you pop into your local supermarket, chances are you will encounter the "seasonal aisle". Currently, the shelves are filled with ghoulish Halloween costumes and accessories, and some stores are already beginning to display their Christmas range. 

If you like to celebrate with a party, or decorate your house for Halloween or Christmas, chances are you have decorations, costumes and tableware stashed away ready for these events (and each year there is temptation to buy more!).


Considering these events happen once a year, are we wasting valuable storage space at home? Are our decorations and seasonal items at risk from damp and damage in their current location? Are you storing extra furniture such as chairs for festive visitors? 

At Cube Self Storage we offer fantastic rental rates for short term and long term storage. Our units are weather proof and secure, offering maximum  protection for your belongings. 

As well as Halloween and Christmas items, our storage units are perfect for other seasonal items such as sport equipment and garden furniture - things that can take up much needed space when they are out of season. 


Contact us today for help with your seasonal storage needs.

Is your storage protected?

"Where shall I put these?" 
"In the shed.."
"What about this?" 
"That can go in the garage. It will be fine there"

Oh how these decisions can haunt us. There is nothing more disheartening than retrieving something stored in the shed, garage or attic and discovering that it has been damaged (or completely ruined) by damp, mould or mice (not forgetting the musty smell!).


As we head into Autumn and Winter, the frequently changing weather can have a huge impact on our outside storage areas. Summer furniture and equipment usually gets packed away making our storage spaces less accessible during the Autumn/Winter months and the wear and tear over time often isn't found until it is too late.

So what is the alternative?

At Cube Self Storage we offer great rates for short term and long term self storage unit rental. Our units come in a range of sizes to suit your requirements and can be the perfect solution for seasonal storage. Our units are secure and weatherproof, giving the ultimate protection to your possessions.

Wedding Storage

Love is in the air.....well it certainly is online! News Feeds, Twitter accounts and Instagrams around the world are filling with pictures of beautiful weddings - from the formal married couple shots, to the more candid evening and photobooth snaps. 

As well as posting wedding photos, social media outlets are also increasingly being used to announce engagements. Once an engagement is announced, the planning and preparing soon gets underway (although many brides to be will admit they have been planning since they were little girls!).

With the cost of weddings increasing, many couples are getting creative, and resourcing the wedding "props" themselves. A year ago a friend of mine got engaged and set a date for this summer - the time from engagement to wedding was spent making as many things as she could - from bunting to table centrepieces. By doing it herself she was able to keep a closer eye on the wedding budget and the wedding had a much more personal feel - perfect for my friend and her new husband. 

While making your own things sounds a great idea, it is understandable that some couples prefer just to hand it over to someone else to organise. Making and collecting your wedding items can be time consuming, and also space consuming when those items are stored at home. 

At Cube Self Storage, we offer engaged couples the perfect solution - our self storage units are ideal for storing your wedding items, leaving your home "wedding storage" free. 


Table Decorations

Depending on your theme, creating your own centrepieces add that personal touch. Storing these delicate items in storage will keep them protected until they are needed for fresh flowers to be added.

 Photo Booths
  
For lots of occasions, photo booths are increasingly popular. While the professional ones can be expensive to hire (particularly if your wedding budget is small) more and more people are creating their own. Collecting props for these booths can take up a lot of space at home, so why not use a self storage unit to keep everything in one place?
