Helpful hints to make the packing and storing of your belongings a breeze!

• Use furniture drawers to hold delicate items. Wrap them in bubble wrap or newspaper. 
• When packing toys or smaller objects, remember to fill boxes completely, stuffing open areas with plain newspaper to prevent collapsing when stacked.
• Be careful not to store anything combustible (such as paint and chemicals) or perishable (such as food that is not permanently sealed).
• When storing lawn and garden equipment, drain any fluids prior to storage in order to avoid corrosive damage.
• Use trash cans to store shovels, hoes and rakes.
