Putting Appliances in Storage

It can be difficult to make space in your home or garage for unused appliances. But because new appliances are expensive, many people prefer to hold on to old ones for hand-me-downs, vacation homes, or back-ups. A self storage rental can be a convenient, affordable solution -- short-term or long-term. However, if you don't properly prepare your appliances for remote storage, you may return to find useless, moldy boxes. Below is some useful advice for securely storing washing machines, dishwashers, refrigerators, ovens and more. If you have additional questions or concerns regarding appliance storage, remember that your storage facility manager may be a great source of information and guidance.
