Tips for Packing a Storage Unit- I Just Learned ALL About It!
Moving can be stressful! We are in the middle of just such a move. Kent and I walked around the house a few weeks back. We took a stroll through the basement, garage and all the rooms in the house. Then we looked at each other and rolled our eyes… (Yes, the eye rolling has begun )
There was no doubt that even with sorting, pitching, donating, selling and sending a truckload or two home with our son Spencer. We were still going to have way too much stuff to fit in the cottage we are moving to, while we look for just the right lot to build on.
Renting a storage unit seemed like a good option. I learned a lot going through this process so I thought I would share some tips we learned.

Yes you can get a LOT into a storage unit if you do it right. :-) Couches can be stood on end (unless you have wooden arms or sides) to take up less room. If you can take the legs off your tables you can stand them up as well.
