See how self storage can help event professionals like you streamline your business.

Understanding the Storage Needs of Event Planners

Event planners have a lot of items to manage, from large pieces of furniture and decorations to delicate lighting and sound equipment. Storing everything correctly keeps it all safe from damage and makes sure you can find anything in your storage unit when you need it. That's not all: putting extra things in a storage unit frees up space in event planners' workspaces, so they can focus on planning and running memorable events.

The Benefits of Using StaxUP Storage in Lakeside

StaxUP Storage - Lakeside has a variety of features and amenities that meet the specific needs of event planners. Our facility has storage units in sizes ranging from 5' x 5' to 10' x 20', so we can hold everything from small decorations to large furniture and equipment.

Our Lakeside storage facility puts security first, with advanced surveillance systems and a gated entrance surrounded by a full fence. StaxUP Storage keeps the space clean, safe, and well-lit.

Event planners can change the amount of storage space they need by renting on a month-to-month basis. This works for both short- and long-term storage needs.

Effective Storage Strategies for Event Planners

Consider using these tips to get the most out of your storage unit:

• Keep a Detailed Inventory: It's always important to keep an up-to-date list of the things you store. Write each item's name, condition, and its storage location within the unit. This will help you keep track of your supplies and save you time when getting ready for events.
• Categorize and Label Everything: Sort things into groups; choose whether it's better for your business to sort by type (linens, furniture, lighting equipment, etc.) or occasion (weddings, birthday parties, corporate events, etc.). Label every box and container clearly with what's inside and which group it belongs to. This method makes it easier to find and retrieve what you're looking for, and stops you from overlooking what you need or taking the wrong boxes by accident.
• Store Frequently Used Items Near the Front: Keep things you use for most events, like lighting equipment or basic decorations, near the front of your unit. You'll be able to get ready more quickly if you aren't rooting around in your storage unit looking for the things you use the most.
• Use Protective Covers: Don't let your decorations get scratched, dusty, or broken by chance. Use breathable covers to lower the risk of problems caused by damp, or plastic covers to prevent dust. Make sure you're using the right cover for each piece of furniture or equipment.
• Schedule Regular Maintenance: Check your storage unit every so often to make sure everything is still in good shape. You'll be able to catch any spreading damp or dust quickly, and you'll also have the opportunity to get rid of old or broken items so your collection stays up-to-date and ready for the event.

Additional Tips for Event Planners

Get emergency kits ready: Keep a small, easy-to-reach box inside your unit with extra tape, scissors, and zip ties in case of an emergency. When getting ready for events at the last minute, you'll be glad to have these on hand.

Streamline Logistics: Work with your team to assign specific tasks for getting things out of storage and putting them back in the right spots before events. A logical process cuts down on uncertainty and makes sure that things get done quickly.

Consider Future Growth: Your storage needs may change as your business grows. Make sure you choose a storage unit that has enough space to fit extra items so you're ready for higher demand.
