As you're packing up your belongings and getting ready to take them to your storage unit, it’s important to familiarize yourself with some items that should never be kept in storage. By keeping these particular belongings at home, you'll guarantee you won't run into any trouble with the storage facility or find yourself dealing with another issue.

3 Items To Avoid Taking To A Storage Unit

1. Perishables

While you can find storage units that are climate controlled, the professionals always recommend storing food and beverages somewhere other than a storage unit. The temperature and climate conditions just simply aren't suited for preserving perishables.

2. Unregistered Vehicles

However, to stay out of legal trouble and protect your investments, it's wise to maintain registration on your vehicles for the entirety of the time they're in a storage unit. 

3. Illegal Drugs Or Firearms

Think keeping these items off your residential or commercial property and inside a storage unit will help you avoid getting caught? Think again. Any kind of suspicious activity will be spotted and reported to the staff of the storage facility, who will go on to relay the information to the local authorities.
