Our portable units store most records, household goods, and equipment or tools. However, some items are not appropriate, or require additional protection. Take care when packing your unit because the goods inside will be transported on our truck and handled by a forklift. It is your responsibility to pack your unit so the contents won't be damaged during transport and handling. There is a weight limitation of 3,000 pounds per unit, which is sufficient for storage of most items. However, please be aware that papers and records tend to weigh more. Load large, bulky items like mattresses, refrigerators, and dressers in the unit first. Brace and secure these pieces against each other so they don't shift around, and wrap sofa and chair cushions in sheets or plastic bags for padding. Pack all smaller items in boxes. Remove lamp bulbs and shades before packing, and pad or crate glass items like mirrors and pictures. | | |
