What is the best way to pack my storage unit?

Depending on how often you will be visiting the unit:  If you visit frequently than stable free standing shelves are a good option; if you are storing for a while and won’t need to come in then pack tightly and make sure that you use the space wisely – turning couches on their side helps keep the space open. See our moving and packing supplies, they may help.

Are there any items I can not store?

Propane tanks, raw food materials, things that will harm the unit.
