Nearly all storage companies will have restrictions on what they will allow you to store on their premises. These restrictions are to protect both the storage company and the items being stored. The list of items a storage company will not allow you to store is very often similar to the list of items a moving company will not transport for you.
Read this section before doing your own packing and loading so that you do not find out on the day of the move that you are not allowed to store some or all of the items you have carefully packed. It is important that you understand which items you can and cannot store. There are also items you should not pack yourself, for example you may need professionals to pack up your exercise equipment correctly. The following list serves as a guide only on what not to put in to storage. If you have any specific questions contact your storage facility directly.
Plants – Plants are notorious for not traveling very well and often die in transit. They also do not survive well when moved from one location to another and are thus not generally stored. Some plants also attract pest such as insects, and so we will not allow them to be stored on site. Contact the Department of Agriculture before moving any plants across state lines as many states have rules and regulations that prohibit the entry of plants.
Examples of items you may not want to store are as follows:
Address Books / Files / Air Line Tickets / Financial Statements / Photos and Albums
