Furniture
We recommend that before you pack your furniture like sofa, chairs, cupboards for a storage unit, inspect it for mold and bacterial growth, dirt and stains. It is best to clean the hidden dirt and debris (both inside and outside) with a suitable fabric cleaner and polish the wooden or metal legs. Allow the furniture to dry for at least 24 hours before you head to the storage unit. This will diminish chances of mold recurrence and damp smell.
Antique units
Your antique pieces like sculptors, heirloom furniture, heritage clocks, lamps, vases and others have sentimental value and any damage to it is irreversible. So, it is best if you use a wet cotton cloth dipped in warm water to wipe dirt and dust from the surfaces and dry them out before you put them into a storage unit. If your furniture is upholstered, we recommend you get it professionally cleaned or use a suitable cleaner.
Linen and fabrics
Before you pack any fabric like clothing, bed linen, pillows, duvets, blankets, quilt, curtains or carpets for storage, it is best you clean and dry them out thoroughly. You can also give them for dry cleaning. Purchase some airtight garment bags or air-tight containers to pack them and prevent moisture from seeping in. Place in some naphthalene or fragrance balls to ensure they remain smelling fresh and free of pests.
White goods
All your white goods such as washing machine, microwave, fridge, freezer and others should be cleaned with a sanitizing spray. Wipe all the surfaces and let it air dry for 48 hours before you pack them for storage. This will remove stains and prevent corrosion from moisture or dirt.
Appliances
It is essential to clean your kitchen appliances before you put them in storage. Using a good brand of appliance cleaner, carefully dust and wipe down all the surfaces like filters, grids and switches. Inspect for food particles and remove them out. Ensure no water or moisture is trapped in the appliances.
