Book Storage Tips

EL PASO, TEXAS – March 11, 2013 - As the years pass, it isn’t uncommon to suddenly find yourself with a very large collection of books. Whether it is a favorite story or perhaps a text that you sometimes reference for school or work, books are great to have handy for leisure, educational and work purposes. Many times, bookshelves, desks and other areas of the home become overloaded, making it difficult to locate the books that you tend to use more frequently. If this is the case for you, there is a simple solution: El Paso affordable storage.

If you plan to move your books to an El Paso affordable storage unit, keep in mind that books must be cared for properly in order to stay in good condition. The following book storage tips should be applied when using El Paso self storage units:

·         Thoroughly check each book for dust, mold and other substances. If you come across any moldy books, it is essential that you pack them separately from your other books as the mold can create significant damage. Also, use an old rag to make sure that each book is wiped free of any dust.

·         Organize your books using a method of your choosing. When putting books into El Paso mini self storage, an organization system will be beneficial in that it can help you to locate a book when you need it. Arrange your books by genre or family member, or perhaps alphabetize by author or title.

·         Use small boxes. When you pack books into boxes, the weight can accumulate quickly. In order to prevent any injuries, use small sized boxes that are easy to lift and move to El Paso self storage units. Also, make sure to tightly seal and label each box.

·         When packing books, always place the books spine side flat into the box. This method is best for protecting the delicate spines of your beloved books. While most books will fit into the box this way, large sized books that do not can be stacked flat.

Along with the above packing tips, it is also important to note that books are best stored in dry, dark environments. Dark and dry storage space is essential for reducing yellowing of pages or any warping or other damage due to humidity and temperature changes.  At Armour Self Storage, we provide affordable storage units, making us the perfect solution for book storage.
