With our Fenwick Island DE storage facility located on the Delaware state line, moving out of state is more common in our neighborhood. Summer is moving season and our storage experts want to make your storage experience a step above the rest.

Long distance moves involve a few more step to make a smooth transition. Many find their pantry supplies have been depleted and cleaning supplies need replaced after a move. This month we are focused on moving checklists to get your new home in order.

Dry Goods & More

Canned goods past their expiration date, empty spice racks, even opened boxes you forgot about; how many of you have come across a similar situation while moving? So you do not move expired or opened dry goods, cleaning out the pantry is a good idea before moving out of state. When you arrive at your new house, this checklist will point you in the right direction to re-stock.
