Preparing Furniture for Storage
Try as you might, you’re not going to fit a four-poster bed or a dining room table into a box for storage. However, there are certain things you can do to protect your furniture. Start by unscrewing and dismantling as many components as you can, so that they take up less space in your unit. Invest in some small, sealable bags to keep all the screws in. If any parts are loose (drawers for instance) secure them with some heavy duty tape. Lastly, make sure any upholstered items are covered with a dust cloth to keep them safe.
