If you live in NC, you know that the great yellow blanket has descended over most of the state. Every year, we are bombarded with pollen, and if you suffer from seasonal allergies, you know what a pain this part of spring can be. However, there are steps you can take to try to keep both your home and your storage unit as pollen free as possible.

If you plan to visit your storage unit during the spring, only open and close the doors to exit and enter. Before you enter your unit, be sure to wipe off your shoes thoroughly or remove them altogether. If you’re bringing in new boxes, dust them off with a clean rag once you enter your storage unit. Dusting and sweeping inside your storage unit can also help to keep the pollen at bay.

If you’re coming home with boxes from your storage unit, you’ll want to follow the same steps: wipe your feet and/or remove your shoes, and then clean off the boxes with a clean rag. It’s also a good idea to take a shower and change your clothes when coming home after being outside during heavy pollen season.

Spring is here, and so is the pollen! But don’t let it force you indoors all season. Come and see us at Stow and Go Storage in Greenville, NC for all of your mini-storage needs.

Spring is officially here, and many use this time of year to do some Spring Cleaning. This cleaning doesn’t have to be limited to your home– you can also clean out your storage unit. Use this time to unload, clean, and reorganize your mini-storage unit. Here are some cleaning tips for your storage unit:

• Use clear, plastic storage containers so that you can easily see the contents of each box.
• Clearly label each box and face label outwards.
• Place the larger, bulkier items at the back of your storage unit so that you don’t have to move them every time you need to access something.
• Stack boxes in rows with clear pathways between each row.
• Create a map/chart/diagram of your storage unit so that you can easily locate each item that you need. 
• As you’re moving boxes and reorganizing your unit, take this time to dust and sweep out your unit’s floors and walls.

Not only can you clean and reorganize your storage unit, you can also use your mini-storage unit to help you with your Spring Cleaning at your home. Use your storage unit to keep your home organized and decluttered. You can also use your storage unit to store bulkier cleaning items when you don’t need them.

While Mr. Groundhog (aka Punxsutawney Phil) says that we will have 6 more weeks of winter, the NC weather this week is saying otherwise. However, if you’ve lived in NC for long, you know that the weather can change quickly from one day to the next. Regardless, we still have over a month left until the official start of spring, and there’s sure to be some cold days mixed in there and maybe even some winter weather.

If the ground is covered in snow or ice, it’s a good idea to avoid using your storage unit. Moving boxes and other items is hard enough when the ground is dry, but add in wintry weather, and you’re just asking for an accident. It’s best to wait until the ground has cleared to make a trip to your storage unit.

If you’re using a non-climate controlled unit, there are certain things you should not store in your unit, as they can be affected and damaged by extreme cold and heat. Some of these items include, anything with class, wooden furniture, electronics, and batteries. 

Your mini-storage unit is a great place to store seasonal items that you only need part of the year. For example, during the winter months, you can store your kiddie pools, lawn chairs, and pool floats. Then, when it gets warm again, you can trade these items out for sleds, snow shovels, and heavy jackets. This will free up space in your home.

It’s a new year, and many people make resolutions to help them start their year out right. If you’ve resolved to be more organized this year, we can help you with that. Our mini-storage units help you to store what you don’t need when you don’t need it, leaving room in your home for you to relax without all of the clutter.

Our mini-storage units are great for storing things that you don’t need on a day-to-day basis, but that you will need eventually. For example, you can use your storage unit to store things like:

• Seasonal decorations
• outdoor/patio furniture
• Baby toys and clothes that you want to pass down
• Appliances that still work but that you’re not currently using
• Your out-of-season wardrobe

By storing items like these in your mini-storage unit, you free up space within your home to store the things that you will need more regularly.

Aside from keeping your home more organized, you can also organize your mini-storage unit. This will help you to more easily access what you need when you need it. Here are some organization tips for your storage unit:

• Use clear plastic boxes so you can easily see the contents
• Label boxes clearly
• Place the larger, bulkier items at the back of the unit
• Create a map/diagram/list to help you remember what is stored where

Following small, but significant, storage tips like this will help you get to what you need without having to move around a bunch of things.

If this is your year to finally get organized, let us help you out. Give us a call at Stow and Go Storage in Greenville, NC today.

If you have children, you know that the holidays can bring a lot of new toys, and while these bring your kids joy, they can bring you a lot of stress. No matter how many toys you put away or how many times you clean, sometimes it just seems that there are toys everywhere you look. Whether you’re kicking them to the side or tripping over them at night, they can be a real pain.

This holiday season, we invite you to store those old toys in order to make room for the new. Collect toys that your children no longer play with, and ask them to pick out some to donate. You can take these to a local non-profit organization. This can help to teach your kids a great lesson about charity and helping the community.

If there are toys that you’d like to keep to pass down as heirlooms one day, then you can box those up and bring them over to Stow and Go Storage. Make sure that you remove all batteries before storing these items. If you have fragile or antique items, then we suggest that you invest in a climate-controlled unit.

If there are toys that you think your kids would still like to play with, but they’re just taking up too much room, you can temporarily store them. Then, you can rotate the stored toys out with another set of toys. That way, the kids will get to keep enjoying their toys without taking up too much space in your home.

If you’re looking for the perfect place to hide this year’s toys from those peeking little eyes, then bring your toys to your storage unit until it’s time to put them out for Christmas.

If you like to collect wine, but you don’t have enough space, or an expensive personal wine cellar, in your home to keep it all, don’t worry, because you can store wine in one of our two storage facilities in the Greenville, NC area. However, in order to make sure that your wine stays in pristine condition, there are a few storage precautions that you need to take:

• The most important thing to remember is that wine can only be stored in a climate-controlled unit. Never, ever store your wine in a non-climate controlled storage unit.
• It’s best to store your wine using a wine rack that allows the wine to rest horizontally. Wine racks come in a number of shapes and sizes, so take some measurements in your storage unit beforehand to find a wine rack that fits the space.
• If you can’t use a wine rack for whatever reason, use a padded box to store the wine horizontally.
• Avoid prolonged exposure to light in your storage unit. Whenever you leave your unit, be sure to turn off all of the lights.
• When transporting wine to and from storage, be sure to use plenty of padding to avoid breaking any bottles. Don’t overfill boxes with too many bottles of wine either.

I don’t think anyone in the existence of being has ever said: “Man, I really love walking face first into a spider web.” Even if you’re not afraid of spiders, there’s definitely something unpleasant about coming upon a spider web unexpectedly, much less the actual spider. So, how do you keep spiders, their webs, and other spooky little creatures out of your mini-storage unit? Here are some pest prevention tips to help keep your mini-storage unit as un-spooky as possible:

• NEVER, ever store any perishable items in your unit.
• Use airtight plastic containers rather than cardboard boxes, which rodents can easily chew through.
• Before you move your items into your mini-storage unit, give it a good clean, and then revisit periodically to clean your unit.
• If you store any furniture with upholstery or mattresses, then be sure to wrap it tightly with plastic wrap to prevent pests from nesting in them.
• Raise your items off of the floor using pallets; this also helps prevent any water damage.
• Place cedar blocks throughout your unit, especially in anything containing clothes, as this is a natural pest deterrent.
• If you notice any signs of a pest population in your mini-storage unit, inform the office at Stow and Go immediately.

We want your mini-storage experience to be as pleasant and pest-free as possible. So, be sure to follow these tips.

Now that you’ve decided to get a mini-storage unit, and you’ve picked out what size unit you’d like, it’s time to start thinking about what you’re actually going to be packing your items in. There are a number of options when it comes to storage boxes and packaging, and certain options are better than others, depending on what in particular you are trying to store. 

When it comes to boxes, your two main options are the traditional cardboard boxes and plastic storage totes/containers. Cardboard boxes are better suited for short-term use, like when you’re moving from one place to another. So, if you’re only planning on using your mini-storage unit for a few months, while you move or renovate your home, then cardboard boxes will be just fine. However, be sure not to overload your cardboard boxes with too many heavy things, as the boxes can bend and break during the move.

If you want to store something long term, then it’s a good idea to invest in plastic storage containers as they help to keep out moisture, mold, and insects. In addition, clear plastic containers help you to see what’s stored inside for easier access.

If you’re storing larger items that won’t fit into a box, like furniture or appliances, then you can cover them with old blankets, towels, and quilts in storage to keep them dust and scratch-free. It’s also a good idea to store them in the back of your mini-storage unit so that you don’t have to move them around every time you want to access something in storage.

For fragile items that you’re packing into boxes, you’ll want to cover them in newspaper, bubble wrap, or towels to protect them from breaking during the move and while they’re in storage.
