It’s no secret that organizing your storage units in Reno can be a major stressor if you have a lot of items. Space can be a precious thing to save nowadays, whether it’s in your home or in your storage unit.  

Rather than fill up your home and apartment with items that don’t quite fit, consider renting a short term storage unit. Your local storage facility will help you figure out what size is best for you. Of course, your self storage unit can still get messy if you don’t know how to organize it. Here are six quick tips from the team at Ample Storage to help you out.

Tip 1: Load Self Storage Units the Proper Way 

Load from the back forward. The door to your storage unit is your entry way. If you block it, you may find it difficult to get in.

Tip 2: Use The Space Wisely

Place larger items in the back. The bigger an item is, the farther back it should be placed in your storage unit. This storage unit below is in the process of being organized, but follows the tip because the mattresses have been placed in the back. As for other bulky items like bed frames or tables, take the time to disassemble them for additional space. Keeping pieces together and labeled will help during reassembly. 

Tip 3: Stack Responsibly

Play Tetris. Stacking is the name of the game with any storage unit sizes. Our 24 hour storage units in Reno NV are built with plenty of vertical space, so use it. Stack flat items on top of flat items to create a stable tower of items. It’s important to be careful when stacking too high, in case the boxes topple over. Also, make sure not to strain your back when lifting heavy items without a partner or dolly.

Tip 4: Consider Short Term Storage Organization

Boxes go on top. Put the boxes on top of your stack, since cardboard has a tendency to bend with pressure over long periods of time. Also, you are more likely to need something out of a box, so keeping them nearby and labeled helps keep your storage unit organized.  

As an alternative to cardboard boxes, clear plastic bins are long-lasting and high quality. They also can be used for home storage once you no longer need a self storage unit. When covering large pieces of furniture like couches or lounge chairs, use a blanket instead of plastic as a way to prevent mold growth from trapped moisture.

Tip 5: Clear a Path to Walk

Leave yourself an aisle so you don’t block access to anything from any angle. If you organize to leave yourself a small aisle, you can go into your storage unit and grab what you need.

Tip 6: Keep Important Items Handy

Important items go closer to the door. Once your storage unit is loaded and you live in Reno, you might be heading back and forth to grab things from time to time. When you put important items closer to the door, they are easier to get to when you need them from our Reno NV storage facility.

Did you know that one in five households move to a new place every year? If you’re planning to settle down in a brand new home, you might be curious about when is the best time to do so. 

Peak moving season is typically described as the time between the months of June and August but can begin as early as April or end in late October. This timeframe is usually when college students are moving out of their dorms and apartments and potentially finding new ones. Additionally, many families with K-12-aged children want to make sure they’re fully settled in and familiar with the area by the time the new school year starts. 

The spring through fall seasons makes for a much better time to move than the winter and holiday season. Who wants to stress about major holidays and family gatherings in addition to moving or looking for long term storage? 

Moving is not going to be easy, but it doesn’t need to be a miserable time either. So many things need to be accounted for during the moving process, whether it’s hiring movers, making lists, planning ahead for utilities or schools, and closing on your house. Getting a plan in place has worked wonders for a lot of people when it comes to leaving your old home and settling into the new one. By avoiding these common moving mistakes and planning ahead, you can prepare better for the unexpected and make things run more smoothly.

At Ample Storage, we’ve been helping Northern Nevadans store their valuables since 1987 and have considered your convenience and security first. This also applies to the packing process too, because we’ve been around long enough to know what works and what doesn’t! 

1. To avoid copious amounts of stress, start packing up to a month before the move. The more you pack up ahead of the date, the easier it’ll be for you to take care of other moving details and tasks as your deadline approaches. Start by packing one room at a time, and beginning with the rooms you use the least until you get to the high-trafficked parts of your home.
2. Before the big move, stock up on supplies such as box cutters, permanent markers, packing tape, paper towels, and garbage bags. This will help you stay organized and make sure your items are packed securely.
3. Other helpful equipment to look into includes moving blankets, straps and dollies to make lifting and shifting furniture easier. Be sure to clear a path to the door and put protective covering on the walls and flooring as an easy way to prevent dents and dings.
4. Don’t overpack boxes, but make sure to prevent any large spaces if items still can fit. If a cushion is needed to protect valuables, using towels, cloths and even articles of clothing can work to fill up those spaces.
5. When packing, try to keep your items together. It’s much easier when unpacking if you keep all kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom essentials together. Be sure to either label or color code the boxes to note what rooms the items are for.
6. Works of art are a common and tricky thing to pack. Our experts suggest making an X with masking tape across the glass to not only strengthen and reinforce it, but also hold it together if it potentially shatters. Wrap the pictures in bubble wrap or paper and put them in a frame box, which is a special moving box with a piece of cardboard between each frame for a cushion. Another tip to keep in mind is to make sure not to wrap oil paintings in regular paper as it’ll stick together and smudge.
7. If you’re not working with a team of movers, getting a moving truck with a ramp is a must. Even if renting a truck without one seems like the cheapest option, the struggle with getting all the furniture up and in the truck can add hours of backbreaking labor to your move.
8. Many people feel that the most challenging part of the packing process is deciding what to keep or throw out. If it has been a prolonged period of time since you used something that can be an indicator that it might be time to sell or donate it. Be sure to ask yourself if a piece of furniture that’s on the larger side is also something that is worth moving to a new house, too.
9. One of the more important tips on packing is being able to detach yourself from any emotions or sentimental value when deciding to keep or toss an item. A popular option to get rid of things is to host a moving sale, and it’s an easy way to make money for items that are still in excellent condition.
10. With packing taking up so much time, a moving sale may not be feasible. Instead, another time saving option is to donate your items to places such as Goodwill or other thrift stores that take furniture and/or clothing. The local library may also be interested in any old books in excellent condition, too!

Here are some additional tips on moving:

• Don’t empty any dresser drawers, but instead tape them shut as a way to cut down on boxes used 

 

• Use pots to hold smaller items and wrap them in paper or bubble wrap depending on the fragility 

 

• Buy the same sizes of boxes to make loading the moving truck much easier 

 

• Keep valuables separate by packing them in different boxes and treating them with additional care

 

• Book any necessary moving services mid week as that tends to be the time of less expensive offers

 

• Wrapping up your couch in shrink wrap can help protect the leather from scuffs, holes, and scratches when loaded into the moving truck and packed tightly against everything else

 

• Pack furniture tighter than you think it needs, especially pieces with spindly or fragile legs

 

• Have suitcases or travel bags? They can store whatever’s on your shelves, in addition to any clothing or accessories

 

• Keep hydrated during the move and don’t overexert yourself

 

• Make an “open first” box to have when you get to your new place

 

• Set up internet and utilities before the move

 

• Keep clothes on their hangers 

 

• Always remember to lift boxes and furniture close to your body, and to lift with your knees, not your back 

 

• The process goes much faster when the whole family helps

 

Ample Storage is Here to Help

Downsizing when moving is important, and if you’re looking to move some items into storage until you’re ready to use them at your new home, consider using our storage services to keep them safe. Ample Storage has a variety of storage unit sizes with sizes ranging from 5x5 and 20x20.

What You Can and Cannot Put in a Storage Unit

Our Reno self-storage facility constantly gets asked what items can be stored in a storage unit and what shouldn’t be put in a storage unit. Generally, you can put a whole host of things in a storage unit, but there are limits. A self-storage facility is a great place to store unused household items, appliances, keepsakes, clothes, and even vehicles. However, some items are not accepted either due to the safety risk and sanitary implications they pose. So, what can you put in a storage unit and what should you not put in a storage unit? Find out below.

Items that are NOT allowed to be kept in a storage unit

Flammable or Combustible Items

Flammable and combustible materials pose a severe safety risk in storage facilities and are therefore not allowed. To prevent the possibility of fire, all flammable materials should not be stored in a self-storage unit. These materials may include paint, thinners, household or commercial cleaners, and fuel (gas or diesel). Other combustible or flammable materials that should not be placed in storage include:

• Propane tanks
• Aerosol cans such as hairspray and cooking spray
• Lighter fluid
• Linseed oil
• Explosives
• Fireworks
• Kerosene lamps
• Fertilizer
• Asbestos or anything containing asbestos
• Acid (car batteries and drain cleaners may contain acid)
• Propane tanks
• Toxic or corrosive waste such as old batteries and leftover paint

Hazardous Materials

Like flammable materials, hazardous items should be kept out of storage units for safety purposes. Most hazardous materials have the potential to catch fire, explode, or put others at risk of danger. All of the following items are prohibited from storage facilities:

• Cleaning products
• Ammonia or bleach
• Insecticides
• Roofing tar
• Pesticides
• Paint, paint thinner, and paint remover
• Medical waste, needles, etc.

Items That Attract Pests and Rodents

It’s important that storage facilities maintain health and safety standards to keep storage renters’ belongings safe. Pests and rodents may easily find their way into a storage unit, causing damage to your property. In an effort to prevent this from happening, all items that attract pests are not allowed to be kept in storage units. This includes garbage and perishable foods. 

Wet or Damp Items

Items that are wet or damp should either be thoroughly dried out prior to storage or kept out of a storage unit entirely. Water attracts mold and mildew which thrive in dark locations and can easily spread to other items in your unit leading to damaged goods and unflattering smells. Because of this, all items that are placed in storage need to be completely dry. Things like umbrellas and even certain appliances such as a washing machine need to be wiped clean and dried before being stored for any amount of time. 

Living Things

This one is pretty self-explanatory, but living things such as animals, plants, and people cannot be stored in a storage facility. It is also against the law to reside or work in a storage unit. 

Items that ARE acceptable for storage

Appliances

Appliances are commonly stored in a storage facility to clear up space at home or in the garage. Storage units are great for appliances as they keep them safe from the elements and can be easily put away and taken out. You may put microwaves, dishwashers, washers and dryers, refrigerators, and more in a storage unit. Just be sure to thoroughly clean the appliances before storing them, and ensure they are completely dry. 

Boats, Cars, RVs, and Motorcycles

If you rent a large enough storage unit, you are more than welcome to store your motor vehicles inside. Cars, boats, jet skis, snowmobiles, RVs, motorcycles, and lawnmowers may be stored. However, some facilities will require that the vehicle is operable, so the classic vehicle that you’re trying to get up and running may not be accepted. Check with your local self-storage facilities to see what their policy on storing non-operable vehicles is. 

Clothing and Linen

When it comes to storing clothes and linen, it’s important to keep them in an airtight container to prevent pests and humidity from getting a hold of them. Clothes, bedding, towels, blankets, outerwear, and even shoes may be kept in a storage unit.

Home Goods

Just about any home good or household item that isn’t flammable, hazardous, or a living thing is acceptable to be kept in a storage facility. Common home goods that are placed in storage units consist of memorabilia, keepsakes, trophies, antiques, photos, books, and even electronics. Just be sure to protect your delicate items such as electronics by putting them in airtight containers. 

Furniture

Furniture is one of the most common items to be kept in a storage facility. All outdoor and indoor furniture including sofas, tables, chairs, shelves, and bed frames may be stored. Mattresses are also acceptable, but they should be properly wrapped in plastic and covered for the duration of their stay. All furniture should also be cleaned and properly protected prior to being stored.

Seasonal Items

Seasonal items are also commonly stored in storage facilities. As long as the materials are not flammable or hazardous, they can be stored. Things such as lights, signs, inflatables, and other holiday or seasonal decor may be kept in a storage unit.

When storing sensitive and important documents, we want our customers to have the peace of mind that they will be safe and secure. Even in this increasingly digital age, secure document storage for businesses is essential.

It’s necessary to keep important information, but often the boss’ office and the extra storage closet just isn’t enough. Keep reading this blog to explore information about document storage for businesses and our tips and tricks for organization.

Security

When looking for a good storage unit for your important documents, security should be your number one priority. Ample Storage is equipped with many security features that will keep you and your storage unit safe.

Size

Here at Ample Storage, we offer a multitude of different unit sizes. For document storage for businesses, we recommend our 5’x5’ unit. It’s our smallest unit that’s about the size of a closet. It can hold small furniture, a large tool chest, a small quad and several boxes—which should be more than enough for your documents.

Organization

We have a few unit organization tips that will help you maximize your storage space to ensure everything is easily accessible and safe.

Inventory

Before you even start packing things up, we recommend taking a full inventory of what you will be storing in your unit. Create an inventory list, and make copies so you will know exactly what you will have in there.

Label

After you have tabs on your full inventory, be sure to label. This can save loads of time digging through your unit looking for one specific document. Whether you’re using boxes, storage containers or file cabinets be sure to put labels on what is going in.

Create backups

If possible, create digital backups of every document you will be storing. We do guarantee that your items will be secure, but having backups could save you in the long run.

Pack light, tight and efficiently

Now for the fun part, the actual packing! You can use just about anything to store your documents—boxes, plastic containers, binders, etc—but we recommend using locking, fire retardant safes or filing cabinets.

While packing try to keep it light and store similar documents together. When loading your unit pay close attention to how it’s organized because eventually you’ll have to get things out. Put the documents you will probably never need in the back, and the ones you could possibly need in the front. Locating your documents will never be easier!

Finding the perfect Reno storage facilities takes a bit of research. Regardless of whether you are looking for short term or long term storage, you should use a storage company that will be convenient for you and a safe place for your valued belongings. How do you find the right storage facility? We came up with 10 questions to ask before renting a storage unit to ease your search and hopefully help you find the best storage option. 

---

#1 What are the hours that I can access my storage unit?

This is one of the most important questions to ask before renting a storage unit. The office at most Reno storage facilities are open during normal business hours (from 9am to 5pm), but allow access to storage units for longer periods of time. Keep in mind that if you’re needing to get in contact with someone in the office that they may not be there at the same time that you access your storage unit. And if you’re needing a storage unit with longer hours because of your schedule, then you’ll want to make sure the storage facility you choose can accommodate that. There are 24 hour Reno storage facilities which may be convenient for people with unconventional schedules. 

#2 Do they offer climate controlled storage units?

Most storage units offer climate controlled units. If you are considering long term storage but have items that are sensitive to extreme weather conditions then you’re going to want to seek out Reno storage facilities with climate control. This will ensure that your belongings won’t suffer damage caused by extreme heat, cold, or high humidity. 

#3 Do I need to provide my own lock?

Each storage facility has different rules regarding locks. Some Reno storage facilities require that you purchase a lock from them, others allow you to bring your own as long as it’s a certain size or type of lock, and others let you choose your own. Be sure to call ahead and see if you need to provide a lock, if they have any for purchase, and what their lock regulations are like. 

#4  How do they handle pest control?

The last thing you want is for your storage unit to be invaded by bugs or rodents. They can damage your belongings and make storing items in a storage facility useless. Good Reno storage facilities will ensure the safety of your items by spraying the property with pest and bug repellents. If necessary, they will set up traps and take other precautions to keep rodents and insects out of your stuff. 

#5 Do they offer online bill paying or auto pay?

It can be difficult to get yourself down to your storage facility to pay your rent before their office closes. As stated earlier, most storage offices stick to normal business hours. And even if you do have time to pay in person, it’s not always convenient. This is why you should find a storage facility that offers online bill pay, or even auto pay. 

#6 What security features does the facility have?

Security is a vital quality to look for when finding the right storage facility for you. You want your belongings to be safe so the facility you choose should ensure your trust in them by having a great approach to security. Some basic security features to look for include gated access, surveillance cameras, and good lighting. More advanced security features may include things such as alarmed units, and a security guard on duty at all times. 

#7 Is storage insurance required?

Just like you would buy health or car insurance, there is also storage insurance. Storage insurance, also called tenant insurance, covers property that is kept in the storage unit in case of theft, damage, or loss. Some facilities require this in order for you to use their storage units, and others offer it as a precaution to you. Check with the storage facility before you sign your rental agreement.

#8 Are there any fees I need to pay in addition to rent? And, will the price increase over time?

Being prepared for additional fees and charges will ensure that no confusions occur later on. You want to ask these questions so that later down the road you aren’t surprised by an admin fee you weren’t expecting to have to pay. 

#9 What discounts or specials are available?

Asking this question will help you narrow down the most affordable storage facility. You may see pricing on the company’s website, but calling to ask for specials or discounts will help you determine the best price possible. 

#10 Can I tour the facility before signing?

Seeing firsthand what the facility looks like, the layout, the size of the storage units, whether they’re indoors or outdoors, will really help you decide which facility will be the best for you. You can determine if the 5x5 storage unit you were looking at online will actually fit all of your belongings, and you’ll get to experience the companies customer service. Don’t be afraid to call and ask for a tour if it’ll help you choose the best facility to use.

Short on Space? Use a Storage Unit if You Don’t Have Room in Your Home to Store Holiday Decorations.

Storage Tip: To make holiday decorating a breeze, schedule a day on your calendar to pick up all your holiday décor from your storage unit.

After the holidays, write on your calendar a day to take everything down and take it back to storage. Your house will remain clutter free, and you can start the New Year off right.

Storage Units Reduce Stress and Clutter During the Holidays 

Storing your Christmas decorations in your personal storage unit will keep it out of sight and out of mind during the rest of the year. It’s a great way to free up closet space, especially if you live in a smaller house or apartment. As an extra bonus, it cuts down on clutter and makes the holidays a “special time” when you get to bring out the décor each year.

So go ahead, poor a glass of egg nog and have fun decking the halls!  

Look, you’re storing your items for a reason: they still have value to you, but there’s just not enough room at home. The keyword here is “value.” Whether sentimental or just plain expensive, your items need to be kept in the best possible shape while being stored. And while Ample Storage may be the best option when it comes to self storage in Reno, NV, there are certain things you can do to ensure your stuff stays in great shape. Planning for self storage can might be a great way to protect your items and save you some time later on.

Here are three ways you can keep your stored items in peak condition:

Don’t over-pack your boxes:

The box isn’t full unless you can’t close the top, right? Wrong! Over-packing your boxes for storage can cause serious damage to the items being crushed at the bottom of the pile, and not to mention, your back! You want to get the job done quickly and easily, that’s totally understandable. But by taking those few extra minutes to fill a few more boxes could be the difference between pristinely kept goods, and a storage unit filled with broken pieces along with a trip to the chiropractor.

Label everything:

You may have had a clear plan in mind when you were packing up all your things for storage, but chances are once you pulled down and locked that steel door, you left all that organization and planning behind, too. So, to safely avoid having to unpack everything to find that one thing, label all sides of your boxes so they are clearly visible and legible. By taking time to label your items, you can be in, out, and on with life in minutes instead of hours.

Elevate, elevate, elevate:

Moisture is going to be your biggest enemy in storing your items. Moisture-retaining cement floors, paired with the always unpredictable weather patterns of Reno, Nevada, make for an ongoing battle with water damage. One way to avoid having to repurchase your water damaged items is to keep them elevated for the duration of their stay in storage.

Get your hands on some wooden pallets, or repurpose some old furniture to keep things safely off the floor, and save yourself the heartache of having to find new things to replace the old things you were keeping in a dark room for the foreseeable future.

Store electronics in original packaging: One of the benefits of purchasing electronics is that the packaging they come with are specifically designed to protect them from the elements—and the occasional clumsy deliveryman. So do yourself a favor, and be sure to hold on to the boxes, and foam, and bubble wrap, and be assured that your goods will be kept in great condition while being stored.

We hope these planning for self storage tips help with your next move. Happy packing!

GET YOUR SELF STORAGE IN RENO

If you are planning on moving valuable items into a long term storage unit you should take special consideration in storing them properly to ensure their quality and life. We want to make sure you have all the resources you need to help you appropriately store your items, whether leather boots, handbags, jackets, fur coats, or quality upholstered furniture.

It is very important to know how to store leather, furs, and quality upholstery. Here is a short list of steps to take when storing your special items:

How to Store Leather:

• Clean and treat your leather.

  Making sure your leathers are clean will help uphold their quality during storage and treating them with leather conditioner will also help with the quality and life of your leathers.

• Stuff shoes, boot legs and sleeves with acid-free paper.

  The absorbency of acid-free paper helps to keep a balanced moisture level.

• Use sturdy hangers.

  For items you plan to hang make sure you are using wide, sturdy hangers. Because leather is heavy, you don’t want creases to develop on your items or have the hangers bend and/or break during storage.

• Store items in breathable containers, no plastic.

  Store hanging items in a fabric bag, plastic bags or wraps will hold in unwanted moisture. Suitcase or wooden trunks would be best for non-hanging items. Leather needs to breathe properly to avoid mildew.

• Make sure storage space maintains cool temperatures.

  If storage unit is too hot leathers can dry out and crack.

• If storing items long term- it is beneficial to take them out periodically for air.

How to Store Furs:

• Clean and protect from insects and rodents with fabric deterrent.

  Having your leathers cleaned before storage is always good to assure quality is maintained during storage.

• Air out.

  As with leather, too much moisture can cause mildew in fur fabrics. It is good to allow them to breathe to make certain all cleaners and any other moisture is completely dried.

• Store items in cool, dark, dry places.

• Protect with fabric bags, suitcases or wooden trunks.

  The easiest way to ruin furs is by storing them in undesirable climate.

• If storing for long-term, climate controlled environment is best advised.

How to Store Quality Upholstered Furniture:

• Clean upholstery.

  Make sure to clean covers and surfaces well. Fabric disinfectant would be most beneficial here to help further protect from mildews and mold.

• Air out, to ensure all fabrics are moisture free.

• Disassemble any parts of furniture that can be.

  To make moving and organizing within your storage unit it is best that all pieces of furniture are broken down as much as they can be.

• Wrap in plastic or shrink wrap.

  This helps protect your furniture from dust as well as keeping unwanted moisture out.

• Use pallets to keep furniture off the floor in case of flooding.

  This is a very unlikely scenario but if your items are worth storing, they are worth protecting. That means preparing for the worst.

• Line floor with plastic to create a moisture barrier.

  Concrete draws in moisture so creating a barrier between the floor and your items will help keep that moisture out.

If you have any questions about what type of conditions our Reno NV storage units provide or if you are looking for any other long term storage tips please contact us.

Happy moving, everyone!
