As the holiday season comes to a close, storing Christmas decorations properly ensures they remain in excellent condition for years to come. From fragile ornaments to artificial trees, taking the time to organize and protect your festive items is well worth the effort. If your home lacks space or you want additional security for your decorations, consider the temperature-controlled storage options and secure storage units offered by Sun Valley Transfer & Storage.

1. Organize Before Packing
Before you start packing, sort your decorations into categories like ornaments, lights, wreaths, and outdoor displays. Use clear bins for easy identification and label each box. Organizing upfront saves time when the holidays roll around again.

2. Protect Fragile Items
Delicate ornaments and glass decorations require extra care. Wrap each item individually in tissue paper or bubble wrap and store them in divided compartments. Sun Valley Transfer & Storage’s temperature-controlled units provide a safe environment, ensuring that fragile decorations are not damaged by extreme heat or cold.

3. Store Lights Without Tangles
Avoid the frustration of tangled lights by wrapping each strand around a sturdy piece of cardboard or a designated light reel. Place the neatly wrapped lights in a labeled box to keep them ready for next season. Storing lights in a climate-controlled unit also prevents damage to wiring caused by fluctuating temperatures.

4. Consider Secure Storage for Larger Items
Bulky items like artificial trees, outdoor inflatables, and oversized decorations can take up significant space in your home. Renting a storage unit from Sun Valley Transfer & Storage allows you to free up valuable room while keeping your decorations safe and secure. Their storage units are designed to protect your belongings, whether you need them stored for a few months or year-round.

5. Benefits of Temperature-Controlled Storage
Temperature-controlled storage is ideal for preserving holiday decorations. It prevents warping, cracking, or fading caused by temperature extremes and humidity. Sun Valley Transfer & Storage provides an excellent solution for keeping your cherished decorations in pristine condition, ready to spread holiday cheer year after year.
