To get the most out of your drive-up storage unit:
  • Pack Smart: Fill boxes to capacity to prevent them from tipping, and pack heavy items in smaller boxes so they are easy to lift. Protect fragile goods with bubble wrap and place them near the top.
  • Organize: When arranging your unit, leave a little air space around the perimeter for ventilation and create a center walkway so you can easily reach the back.
  • Prioritize: Utilize the full height of your unit, and keep frequently used items right by the door for grab-and-go convenience!
