Storage units with insulation are necessary for any item that would otherwise be damaged if exposed to the elements, such as when stored on your back patio. Daily variations in ambient temperature and humidity may cause damage to some rather fragile items, but an insulated storage unit can protect your items from these variations. Antique wooden furniture and leather furniture would be damaged in these conditions, so an insulated storage unit is a suitable choice for them. Storing paperwork and clothing is best done in insulated storage units, as non-climate-controlled units cannot provide conditions that won't cause these items damage. An insulated storage unit is also the right choice if you're trying to store any type of physical media. If you need to store items that may be vulnerable to variations in ambient conditions, then an insulated unit protected from the weather will be the right choice for you.

There is space for everyone in our wide range of storage units. Extra space is within reach for anyone looking for a small, affordable unit, as we have small selections that measure in at 1m x 1. 5m or 1m x 3m. If you need something a bit bigger we have 2m x 3m and 3m x 3m units, typically used to pack a 2 bedroom apartment into storage or for storing business archives. 2 or 3 bedroom homes require more space, as do the archives of a large business, and in these cases, we can recommend a 3m x 4m or 3m x 5m unit that suits these needs well. When it comes to storing a vehicle, though, including cars, boats, and trucks, you'll need a larger unit that offers drive-in access. In these cases, we offer 3m x 6m units that can suit your needs. You'll need to contact your nearest facility and confirm what space they have available, though, as all of our facilities can only offer the space they have available at any given moment of time, which changes throughout the year.

As mattresses are quite large, storing one correctly is not always easy. Each mattress needs to be cleaned, covered, and transported correctly to make sure it is properly stored. Thankfully, Guardian Self Storage, the Lakes Creek self storage experts, can make sure that your mattress has been stored properly in one of our units. Finding the answers you need for your self storage questions is as easy as reaching out to your friendly team. Ensuring the safety of your mattress in storage requires that you do some pre-planning. Start by airing out the mattress after cleaning it with a vacuum cleaner. Create an air-tight seal around the mattress using a breathable plastic wrap, as heavier plastics will trap the moisture in. Leaving the mattress on the roof of your car will expose it to both the weather and the wind, which can cause damage to it; instead, move it in a sealed van. To prevent the coils settling out of position once at the storage unit, leave the mattress flat against the floor. Finally, make sure that there is nothing left on top of the mattress, especially for long-term storage, as this can cause damage to the mattress over time. Suitably storing your mattress in a manner that prevents damage is as simple as taking these steps.

Wrapping your items with butchers paper before packing them into containers can help keep the moisture out at night. Some items can be vulnerable to damage during transportation, but this is easily mitigated with a thick layer of bubble-wrap. Corrugated cardboard can similarly be used to reinforce any glass panes present in your items, such as those found in pieces of art and picture frames. Similarly, large picture frames and TVs are commonly placed into expandable cardboard boxes instead of regular cardboard boxes, to help account for their larger size. While wine bottles may be extremely prone to damage during transportation when stored incorrectly, you can use wine-cartoon inserts to properly pack these bottles into cardboard boxes, preventing damaging when they are being moved.

Your electronics are safe in storage, provided they are stored properly. As time goes on, both lithium and alkaline batteries will degrade, which makes them the hardest and most difficult electronic component to store safely. With that said, storing these batteries safely is as simple as removing them from your electronics and storing them separately. Storage can even help keep your items safe for longer, as hard drives and solid-state drives will be less likely to fail in storage when compared to their average failure rates in usage. In rare cases, though, these drives do still fail, so make sure you create backups for all of the data on your mobile device, laptop, or desktop computer. Storing electronics is both safe and easy with the right preparation.

As furniture can occupy quite a bit of space, it may be best to sell some items rather than storing everything. You will then want to thoroughly clean any items that you have decided to store to remove anything that will cause damage or create stains over time, such as dust and dirt. Any large items should be taken apart so they can be stored in a more compact manner and they will be less likely to damage the rest of your furniture during storage. Lastly, you should properly pack all of your items, covering everything with sheets and blankets for dust protection and with extra padding around the corners to prevent blunt force damage during movement. Once you've taken these steps, you can leave your furniture in storage confident that it'll be safe.

It's hard to claim that a boat is a minor investment, regardless of if you think of it from a practical sense or a fiscal sense.

There are a few easy things you can do before leaving your boat in storage to keep it safe from damage. Anything that could create an odour over time needs to be removed from the interior of the boat, including moisture, bait, and fishing buckets. Boat protector on the hull can also be extremely beneficial, though you'll first need to clean the boat with fresh water to remove any salt or debris that has become attached to it. Much like with a car, you should also replace your oil and coolant, leave the tank full of petrol, and disconnect the battery. Lastly, the elements themselves can still prove damaging, so regardless of where you're leaving the boat, make sure it's always underneath a boat cover. Storing your boat is easy with the right preventative measures.
