Renting a storage unit may seem like an open and shut task: You open the door to your storage unit, stack your stuff, shut the door, and disappear. Sometimes for months. But self storage isn't quite that simple. Even though your things are just sitting there in the dark, a lot can happen to them in public storage. It’s important that you pick the right self storage facility and once you do, it’s even more important that you pack and stack correctly.
