There are a variety of reasons why people acquire storage units Las Vegas. They may be moving into a smaller place or their house may not be ready yet or the office storage cabinets could simply not hold everything anymore. Whatever the reason, it is always advisable that you do some careful planning before you rent storage units in Las Vegas.

Before you begin putting your stuff into the unit, make sure that the terms of your rental contract is clear to you before you sign it. Consider the security and accessibility of your storage units in Las Vegas, taking into account its location and whether guards will be visible even during off hours.

When storing your things, consider leaving enough room in front of your storage units Las Vegas to easily access your things instead of putting an aisle which would take too much space. Also, it is better to store your more valuable belongings at the back of your unit since it is less likely for thieves to go through your entire storage just to look for your valuables. Better yet, refrain from putting valuables in your storage units Las Vegas.

If you are storing your items on the ground floor, you might want to put plastic sheets or tarpaulin or plastic pallets on the floor to keep water and moisture from seeping into your things. Avoid storing your things by the wall to allow for ventilation of your items. Store your items a couple of inches from the wall to promote ventilation. Remember also to leave refrigerator and freezer doors slightly ajar for airflow.

Be sure to wrap upholstered furniture or mattresses in your self-storage facility in cotton sheets to protect them from dust. Guard the legs of chairs and tables from scratches by wrapping them with paper. Your gardening tools and other metal items must be well-oiled before storage for rust-protection. Also, make sure that any engine you store like lawn mowers or trimmers has been drained of its gas.

When stacking boxes, make sure that your boxes are not over-packed or under-packed. Over-packed boxes bulge at the seams while under-packed ones are easily crushed.

Keep in mind that getting storage units in Las Vegas is never a guarantee that your things will be protected from damage. While insurance is readily available, there are items that are simply irreplaceable.
