Moving & Packing Guide
A few simple habits make all the difference when you move into storage. Here is how we help our customers across Greater Manchester get settled quickly and keep their belongings in great shape.
Step by step
01
List what you plan to store and group items by room or type. Use our size guide to pick a unit that gives you a little room to move around inside.
02
Use sturdy, uniform boxes so they stack safely. At Salford Quays you can pick up packaging on site to save a separate trip.
03
Label every box on more than one side and wrap fragile items well. Keep a simple inventory so you can find things again without unpacking everything.
04
Place heavy items low and at the back, leave a walkway to the door, and keep things you will need sooner near the front.
