Beach Day Tips ~ Toddler Edition
Make your beach day with your toddler(s) more enjoyable – Here are some best practices from our own staff here at Somersworth Storage!
Night before: Freeze water bottles to pack with perishables and other water bottles. Then, they can be consumed during your beach trip
Lessen the load: Bring less towels and share towels for drying off, instead opt to bring a large blanket to sit on (chairs are really hard to carry with little ones)
Snacks: Pack double the snacks you think you’ll need, and pack in small quantity and individual containers to avoid all your food getting sandy
Toys: Bring only a couple sand toys. Let your kids explore nature
Extra considerations: Bring a bag for wet or sandy items. Apply baby powder on hands and feet to remove sand easier
Timing: Go early in the morning. If you’re going later in the day we would suggest shade of some sort

Inventory Organization With Self-Storage
Organizing a storage unit efficiently is crucial for small businesses looking to maximize space and streamline operations. Start by categorizing your inventory and supplies. Group similar items together, such as office supplies, marketing materials, seasonal products, and excess inventory. Use clear, labeled bins and sturdy shelving units to keep everything visible and accessible. Creating a detailed map of your storage unit will help you quickly locate items without unnecessary searching. Position frequently used items near the front of the unit and seasonal or less critical items towards the back, optimizing your workflow and reducing retrieval time.
Implementing an inventory management system is another key aspect of maintaining an organized storage unit. Regularly update your inventory list to reflect what’s in storage, and consider using barcode labels for easy tracking. This system not only helps prevent overstocking or running out of essential items but also allows for efficient audits and inventory checks. Additionally, ensure that your storage unit is equipped with proper lighting and safety measures, such as sturdy ladders or step stools, to facilitate easy access and prevent accidents. By maintaining an organized and well-managed storage unit, your small business can operate more efficiently, saving time and reducing stress associated with inventory management.

Best Ways to Store Electronics
Storing electronics properly in a self-storage unit is crucial to preserving their functionality and longevity. The first step is to ensure that all items are clean and dry before storage. Dust and moisture can cause significant damage over time, so use a soft cloth to wipe down devices and allow them to air out if necessary. Removing batteries from gadgets is also important to prevent corrosion and leakage. Original packaging is ideal for storing electronics, as it provides a snug fit and adequate cushioning, but if you don’t have the original boxes, use high-quality bubble wrap and sturdy boxes to protect your items. Label each box clearly, noting the contents and any handling instructions.
Additionally, climate control is a key factor in safeguarding electronics. Extreme temperatures and humidity can wreak havoc on sensitive components, so choosing a climate-controlled storage unit is highly recommended. Keep electronics off the ground by placing them on shelves or pallets to avoid potential water damage. It’s also wise to cover larger items like TVs and computer monitors with breathable cloths to shield them from dust while allowing air circulation. By following these steps and selecting the right storage environment, you can ensure that your electronics remain in optimal condition during their time in storage.
