  • As box strength gets degraded with the passage of time, look for strong and sturdy boxes that can keep your belongings intact in the storage unit.
  • Go for small size boxes as it would become easier for you to stack them in self-storage facility.
  • Use bubble wrap to pack separately breakables and fragile items like glasses, dishes and ornaments.
  • Do not keep any heavy item on the top of boxes marked fragile.
  • Empty space in the box may cause the box to crash, and damage the items during transit. To fill up the space in boxes you can use towel, paper and other such materials.
