How to organize your storage for frequent access?

The boxes you will access most frequently should be the last ones packed inside the storage unit. Rent a slightly or much more significant space than you need to ensure enough walking space and “sorting” space. Keep most frequently used items closer to the front and label all bins and boxes for ease. Keep all categorized items in the same general area, such as holiday items, sporting items, clothes, kitchen items, and so on. Keeping all related things in the same public place makes for an easier search or less time spent organizing.
