Moving Stuff to a Storage Unit: Why Should You Label Your Boxes?



Labeled Moving Boxes Storage Units
When you plan to move your belongings to one of the Van Buren storage units, you might come up with a lot of different boxes housing various types of items. Small items can range between anything from fragile old DVDs, plates and glasses, and heavy items such as speakers, dumbbells and gardening tools.

Labeling your boxes, therefore, carries a lot of importance. You have to know which boxes need to be dealt with caution and which ones are heavier – and should, therefore, be placed at the bottom of the rack. Also, labeling your boxes will make it easier to pinpoint an object you’re looking for or get something from storage without having to look through every single box.

Aside from labeling everything, make sure you also have footage of the layout of all your boxes, so that you can figure out from the start where to go when you need to get or check on an item. Sometimes a box might go missing due to theft, and if you have footage or a photograph of your boxes, outlining the exact position of everything you stored, it will be easier to get to the bottom of the problem as well as getting the right kind of compensation from your insurance company.
