Expert Tips to Protect Your Belongings – Best Practices for Storage in Washington, DC

While our facilities provide excellent protection, you can make sure everything stays in excellent condition with sound packing strategies.

Key packing tips

  • Disassemble furniture: Remove legs, take beds apart for safer storage
  • Protect upholstery: Use breathable cotton covers, not plastic that traps moisture
  • Wrap fragile items individually: Every breakable needs its own protection
  • Use the right box sizes: Heavy items in small boxes, light items in large ones
  • Label everything clearly: Mark multiple sides with contents and destination
  • Create pathways: Leave narrow aisles for accessing items in the back
  • Store furniture vertically: Stand sofas on end to maximize space

What to avoid storing

  • Perishable foods
  • Hazardous materials like paint or gasoline
  • Living plants
  • Vital documents you might need suddenly

Why climate control matters

DC’s extreme weather swings create the perfect storm for storage damage. Temperature and humidity fluctuations cause wood to warp, promote mold on fabric and paper, damage electronics through condensation, and accelerate deterioration.

Our climate-controlled units eliminate these destructive cycles, keeping your belongings pristine whether you retrieve them in three months or three years.
