Certain items should not be stored in a storage unit due to safety, legality, or preservation concerns. These include flammable materials, hazardous chemicals, perishable food items, and live plants or animals. Items with sentimental or high monetary value, like jewellery or personal documents, are also better stored at home or in a safety deposit box. While most units are secure, it’s wise to avoid storing anything irreplaceable. Checking with the facility about prohibited items can prevent damage to your belongings and ensure compliance with the facility’s rules.

Storage facilities prioritise security to keep your belongings safe. Many offer features like gated access, CCTV surveillance, security personnel, and individually locked units. Some also have alarmed units and electronic access systems to restrict entry. While these measures significantly reduce risks, it’s recommended to add an extra layer of security by choosing a durable lock and ensuring your items are insured. Touring the facility and understanding its security policies can give you peace of mind, especially if storing valuable or sensitive items.

Preparing items for storage can extend their lifespan and prevent damage. Start by cleaning and drying all items to avoid attracting pests or mould. Use protective coverings, like blankets or bubble wrap, for delicate items. For furniture, disassemble pieces if possible to save space and protect fragile parts. Place heavier items at the bottom and avoid overpacking boxes to prevent damage. Label each box for easy retrieval, and consider using moisture absorbers in the unit to maintain a dry environment. Proper preparation ensures your items stay in good condition while stored.
