Storage tips

• Use plastic bins with a lid.
  
• Don't store anything that is damp or wet.
  
• Pallets or 2x4s are a great option to keep items off the floor and increase airflow.
  
• Leave room around boxes for airflow.
  
• Don't stack boxes too high.
  
• Do stack boxes with the heaviest/largest on the bottom.
  
• Clearly mark boxes for easy retrieval,
