There are several practices for carefully packing and storing your boxes and bags to avoid problems and damage in the future. Label your boxes with the contents inside, and situate them in your unit in an organized way to make it easy to find whichever item you’ll need down the road.  Protect against moisture and the eventual growth of mold by making sure your items are first clean and dry before being stored. Wipe down items with a microfiber cloth to remove dust and dirt.   Disassemble large items to protect individual parts, and use packing materials for sufficient padding. Pack boxes full, and seal them tightly.  Keep in mind each item requires its own specifics as to how you can best protect it in storage.
