So, you have booked your storage unit, but now you are wondering what supplies you need to perfectly pack and store away your belongings. Infinity Storage has everything that you might need to ensure your packing and storing process goes as smoothly as it possibly can.

Boxes

Different things need different boxes. Clothing cannot simply be stuffed into any old box and the same goes for files and other fragile items, that is why we at Infinity Storage have seven different boxes for you to choose from.

• Wine Box: Perfect for storing your unopened vintage wines and other small items such as CD’s and DVD’s.
• Small Box: The right size for all your books, magazines, and kitchen utensils.
• Medium Box: Ideal for your general kitchen items, appliances, and shoes.
• Large Box: Your linen, cushions, blankets, curtains, clothing, sheets, towels, and other large lightweight items will be very snug in this box.
• Rectangular Box: This is a must have for all your pots and pans as well as other lightweight items.
• Archive Box & Lid: If you have recently sorted out your office then this is the ideal box to store business files safely and securely.
• Wardrobe Box: If you are planning on storing clothes then a wardrobe box is a must. Use together with a wardrobe hanger rod, also available at our premises in Pretoria North.

Items to keep your belongings safe

When storing your belongings, you want to do everything in your power to keep them safe for the duration of the storage process. These five items are a definite must when preparing your items for storage:

• Bubble Wrap: Bubble wrap is needed to ensure that any breakables are securely protected and cushioned. It can also be used to wrap other fragile items such as mirrors and frames. We stock small and large rolls of bubble wrap, both in normal and bulk quantities.
• Moving Blankets: These soft blankets are ideal for protecting your furniture, tabletops and appliances from scratches and damages during the moving and storing process.
• Mattress Bags: Mattress bags are made for protecting your mattress against water, dirt, and dust during moving or storage.
• Fragile Stickers: Make sure you (and everyone else) knows which boxes contain fragile items and need to be handled with care.
• Locks: We also sell several different locks to secure your belongings inside your storage unit.

Accessories

Boxes are not the only thing you will need when packing items. Tape, scissors, and other accessories are essential when storing your items. The following accessories are also available in-store at our premises in Pretoria North.

• Box Tape: Used to close and fasten boxes securely.
• Tape Dispenser: Use with box tape to make the fastening and closing process of boxes faster and more convenient.
• Permanent Markers: Easily mark and number your boxes. Remember to mark boxes on all sides for easy identification.
• Scissors: A necessity for any move.
• Flashlight: Ideally keep one at the entrance of your unit to easily locate items.
