Christmas is over, and for many, Christmas decorations are starting to come down or will be coming down soon. If you have a mini-storage unit, this is a great place to keep your Christmas tree until next year. Before you put your Christmas tree into storage, there are a few things you can do to ensure that your tree lasts you for years to come.
One of the most important things you can do when storing your Christmas tree is to cover it. There are a number of bags and boxes made especially for Christmas tree storage that you can use for just this. You can also use the original box that the tree came in, but these boxes are typically cardboard and will not hold up over time, nor will they offer you maximum storage protection for your tree; however, it’s better to use the tree’s box than nothing at all if you’re in a pinch.
Make sure that you take all of your ornaments off of your tree to protect them from breaking during transport. You can get storage boxes made especially for ornaments with individual compartments to protect them. Or, you can wrap them in tissue paper to protect them from breaking while in storage. If you have fragile glass ornaments, it’s best not to keep them in a non-climate controlled storage unit.
You should also take the lights off of your tree unless it’s a pre-lit tree. To keep your lights organized, you can cut a rectangle of cardboard and wrap the lights around it; this will help prevent tangles and knots, not to mention a whole lot of frustration come next Christmas season.
