Keep Kids’ Clutter Under Control With A Tigard Storage Unit

Children quickly accumulate a lot of items from small pieces of furniture to several items of clothing. Parents know that dressers, bedding, clothes, and toys, though they may be used for several years, commonly get stuffed into corners and closets, creating excess clutter in your home. At US Storage Centers, our Tigard storage unit facility offers the perfect solution for reclaiming space and adapting to your child’s ever changing needs, allowing you to hold onto hand-me-downs as well as those items you want to keep as mementos. Consider our suggestions for children’s items that keep well in a storage unit.

Tigard Storage Unit Can Keep Baby Items Safe

Babies grow fast, and clothing and equipment tend to get replaced quickly. Maybe you are storing baby gear for use in the near future as you anticipate more children. Maybe you are looking more towards the long-term and want to preserve your children’s memories. Either way, a storage unit in Tigard will keep these precious items safe. We have units available in a variety of sizes to suit every need and budget in a clean, safe facility designed to protect your belongings from damage or theft. Baby items many people keep in a Tigard storage unit include:

Cribs and bedding; Baby equipment, such as bassinets, walkers, high chairs, and strollers; Baby clothing and blankets; Stuffed animals, mobiles, and other baby toys; Keepsakes, such as brass booties, baby books, christening gowns, and other fragile items.

When placing baby clothes and linens in storage, the Spruce recommends washing them in a mild detergent and pretreatment to remove any stains. For sleepers, bibs, and blankets, you may need to soak overnight in oxygenated bleach. Be sure to clean in the crevices of any baby equipment, and make sure everything is thoroughly dried before placing in your storage unit.

Using Your Storage Unit For Older Children’s Items

Past the toddler years, parents often use closets and crawl spaces for children’s items that have outgrown their usefulness. School uniforms, sports equipment, toys, seasonal clothes, and other items can all be kept safely in a Tigard storage unit, giving you more space for those things your child depends on every day.

Apartment Therapy advises that one of the first steps in organizing children’s toys and other gear should be deciding what to keep, what to donate, and what to throw away. Keep out what is currently being used and put the rest in your storage unit. Follow these tips for packing and keeping everything organized:

Keep clothes in boxes, separated by season. Place sports uniforms, helmets, pads and recreational gear together. Store old toys in large plastic bins and keep like items, such as books or stuffed animals, in one container. Use plastic shelving units in your storage unit to maximize space, and keep items you will need in the near future in the forefront.
