Discovering how hard it is to move and store your belongings is something that nearly everyone has faced. The pros at Paradise Self Storage, Hawaii’s premier facility for public self storage rentals, know that countless last-minute movers have found themselves shocked at just how big of an operation moving and storing their belongings really is. So, if you're just getting ready to pack, move, and store, follow these tips from the storage folks at Paradise Self Storage.

Keep your move stress-free with:

  • Lists: Organization is your friend when packing up for a move. Make a list and group your items together by room. Doing this will make unpacking easier and will maintain order among the chaos of moving.
  • Boxes: Keeping boxes labeled and perfectly sized is the best practice, according the pros at Paradise Self Storage. Things should fit into boxes properly and there shouldn’t be any risk of items moving around or breaking during transportation. 
  • Label makers: Knowing exactly what is in each box will help you when it comes time to unpack. Plus, if you have to rummage through your storage at some point, you’ll know exactly what you’re looking for.
  • Packing: Pack heavier items at the bottom of your boxes and lighter items at the top. This will give your boxes better balance and make them easier to move. Naturally, you’ll want to pack your fragile items separately, make sure they are properly labeled, and place them at the top of any box stack. 
  • Lids & tape: Keeping boxes taped and closed will not only keep items safe, but will stop dust from getting into your belongings while they're in storage.
