The temperatures are dropping, and it&#8217;s time to start thinking about stowing your summer gear for the season. Let\u2019s see&#8230; we have beach chairs in the trunks of two cars, a patio full of furniture, an assortment of bicycles, kayaks and canoes, and closets full of summer clothes. It may be time to consider getting some extra space at a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/storageinn\">self storage unit<\/a>\u00a0facility\u00a0like our <a href=\"https:\/\/the-storage-inn.com\/locations\/ocean-city-nj\/\">Ocean City self storage location<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/the-storage-inn.com\/locations\/egg-harbor-nj\/\">Egg Harbor Township self storage location<\/a>! &#8211; Here are some tips to help you store your summer fun items!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000080;\">Storing and Packing Beach Items<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shake off the loose sand, and make sure that your items are completely dry before storing them.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is also a good idea to place a moisture inhibitor such as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.damprid.com\/\">Damp Rid<\/a> in the storage unit to help avoid mold and mildew. Be sure to allow enough room for air to circulate around items such as beach chairs to prevent them from getting musty. Most importantly, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>DO NOT<\/strong><\/span> place anything into a storage unit that is still wet!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-364\" src=\"https:\/\/the-storage-inn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Summer-gear.png\" alt=\"summer-gear\" width=\"768\" height=\"213\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the-storage-inn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Summer-gear.png 768w, https:\/\/the-storage-inn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Summer-gear-300x83.png 300w, https:\/\/the-storage-inn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Summer-gear-624x173.png 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Storing and Packing <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wheels and Paddles<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be sure to prep your bicycles, canoes and kayaks before placing them into storage. Oil any moving parts, and use the appropriate protectants on the metal, rubber, and plastic areas as needed prior to storing. You should also cover your stored items to protect your prep handywork!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Storing and Packing <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Patio Items<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure that all your patio furniture, grills, cushions,etc., are clean and dry prior to placing them into your self storage unit. Use patio furniture covers to protect your chairs and tables, and sealable plastic bags, or plastic wrap for your furniture cushions. Table cloths, placemats and accessories can be easily stored in an airtight plastic bin. Make sure that your grill is clean and dry, and that the fuel tank has been removed, prior to placing it into your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=OZ0DZOM3S74\">self storage<\/a> unit. Fuel tanks should always be stored in a secured outdoor area.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Storing and Packing <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shorts, Tanks, &amp; Tees<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be sure that all your clothing is clean and dry prior to storage. Use airtight plastic containers that are labeled on the side, so that you can read them when they&#8217;re stacked on top of one another. Placing silica packets inside of these containers will help to eliminate any moisture that might be trapped at the time of packing. Try placing a dryer sheet inside each of the containers to leave your clothing smelling clean and fresh when you retrieve them next spring.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Well, there you have it, the perfect plan for storing your Summer away from the self storage experts at The Storage Inn&#8230; at least until the temps begin to creep back up come Springtime! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To reserve the perfect unit to store <i>your<\/i> summer\u00a0be sure to call or stop into your local <a href=\"http:\/\/www.TheStorageInn.net\">self-storage facility<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/the-storage-inn.com\">The Storage Inn!<\/a>\u00a0Our friendly staff is always available to answer any\u00a0questions that you may have.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Tips for storing your summertime beach gear<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Store your Summer!
