We have previously mentioned that some items cannot be stored in a storage unit due to safety and other restrictions. These items include anything combustible and corrosive, for example, gas, kerosene, or oil. Cleaners, fertilizers, or paint are also not the best choice for storages. Another dangerous choice to avoid would be radioactive materials, such as fertilizers or biological waste. Perishable food items are not allowed in storages, due to being a magnet for all kinds of pests. If you are storing any kind of food, make sure it’s canned and sealed securely. It would be common sense (and in fact, illegal) to not store anything live, such as animals or plants. Lastly, if you possess anything that’s of extremely high value, such as expensive jewelry or unique collectible artwork, these items would be safest stored separately.
