Storage

SharkSearch.Com: Shark Search:


*Use ice cube trays to store small items.

*Cut the top off empty milk jugs, and use the bottom to store bathroom cleaning accessories. This will protect cabinets or the floor from drips and spills from the chemical cleaners. Discard when dirty.

* Buttons can be organized by storing them in empty egg cartons or putting them on diaper pins.

* Pack books flat to protect their spines. Dont lay boxes of book directly on a concrete floor--it allow them to absorp moisture.

*A refrigerator or freezer should be thoroughly dry and stored with its door(s)slightly open.

* Drapes & Linens: These items should be stored on hangers or carefully folded and stored in dresser drawers, wardrobe-style cardboard cartons or cedar chests. Food crumbs or stains should be removed before storage.

* Bicycles & Metal Items: To help prevent rust, wipe all metal surfaces with a cloth containing a few drops of WD-40 or motor oil.

* Don't use newspaper to wrap lamp shades or any other goods that can be damaged by ink stains.

* All glass items should be individually wrapped and placed near the top of cartons to avoid the weight of other items pressing on them. Cushion the bottom of boxes which store nothing but glass items.
