Tips for Businesses

Companies and businesses have unique moving and storage needs. The following hints and tips will assist you.

• Pack books flat to protect their spines. Use packing paper to fill out empty areas in the boxes. Do not overload.
• When storing business files and inventory, label all boxes and construct aisles so files are easily seen and accessible.
• Documents and file boxes can be stored more efficiently using free standing shelving. Be sure to make a list of all stored materials, and if possible, add coding to your boxes in an easily viewable place on the storage box to make retrieval easier.
• When storing tools, metal items and equipment, be sure to clean and wipe with a rag and machine oil to keep away dust corrosion.
• Never store perishables, liquids, explosives, flammable liquids and fuels, toxic materials, or other items that need a controlled environment.
