Advanced Storage Systems’ Storage Tips Help You Make the Most of Affordable Self-Storage in Canton, Ohio

Whether you’re storing your items at home or you’ve chosen to place them in Stark County, Ohio’s premier self-storage facility, there are a few packing tips and storage tips that will help you to make the most of the space you have, while also ensuring that your items are in excellent condition when you ready to take them out of storage (assuming they were in excellent condition to begin with, of course). With a few useful suggestions from Advanced Storage Systems, you may find that you can save money by renting a smaller storage space than you had originally anticipated while still taking advantage of their many amenities, including climate control and intensive security. This affordable self-storage facility is only minutes from Massillon, Ohio and is perfect for residents throughout the greater Canton, Ohio area.

Keeping your items at Advanced Storage Systems is a lot like keeping them at home, only better. While you may have home security, chances are that you don’t have state of the art, 24/7 surveillance, keycard access to storage areas, and motion activated indoor lighting. These are just a few of the security measures that you will find at Advanced Storage Systems.

Then there’s the “creature” comforts, like carpeting. You probably have some carpet in your Canton home, but is it in the areas where you typically store things? Probably not. Many of us store things in the basement where boxes could be exposed to moisture and other less than desirable conditions. We also have our outdoor storage sheds which are perfect for tools and lawn equipment. Or are they? If you’re diligent about caring for your things, it probably won’t do any harm. When trying to maximize your space and keep your tools in good shape, Advanced Storage Systems encourages you to make use of items such as garbage cans for storage. In your affordable self-storage area, you can stand rakes and other lawn and garden tools upright in a garbage can. Adding some oil to the metal components will help to discourage oxidation, and they’ll be just as nice when you unpack them as they were when they went in. Another disadvantage of outdoor storage sheds is the lack of climate control. Everything inside is exposed to Massillon’s stifling summer heat and sub-zero winter, not to mention the extra moisture in the air. Advanced Storage Systems maintains a carefully climate controlled environment that protects your belongings.

Furniture storage can be intensely frustrating because it takes up so much room. Here are a few more storage tips from Advanced Storage System that address this problem specifically. Stack your chairs seat-to-seat! Sounds so simple, but it’s just not something that we always think about. When you stack your chairs, be sure to wrap the legs with padding or even a towel to avoid unsightly scratches or other damage. In empty dressers or any other empty piece of furniture, you can store small, lightweight boxes. This will free up space while also offering a little extra protection around your boxes!
