Know What You Can and Can’t Store

November 8, 2018 by A.B. Richards

what you can and can't storeAt A.B. Richards, we’re all about making things as easy as possible for our customers. That’s why we do things like delivering your portable storage containers exactly where you need them and then picking it up when you’re done. We’ll make certain that the storage container you want is the right size for your storage needs and we’ll rent you a durable storage container that will ease your concern about security and we have locations throughout the northeast. But we guarantee you things will not be convenient if your portable storage container isn’t being used properly. You need to think about what can be stored safely and what might cause problems before you create a problematic situation.

A.B. Richards Can Take Care of All Your Storage Needs

We want to make certain that you get the most out of your ground-level portable storage containers, so we want to give you some tips on what to store and what not to store. For smaller storage jobs or if you need containers on a smaller parcel of property like a residential lot, our 20ft storage containers should suit your needs. But if you have a bigger storage job, such as holding onto a large inventory or storing equipment at a job site, we recommend our 40ft storage containers or our 40ft Jumbo containers which has an extra foot of headroom.

What You Should Think About When You Rent from A.B. Richards

When you rent a portable storage container from A.B. Richards, you should always keep in mind that we’re a rental company and that the container needs to be returned in the condition you received it. So, you can’t repurpose your containers for use as an office, business, or another facility.

There’s also a number of things that very obviously should not be stored in an A.B. Richards container. Anything that’s considered illegal or highly dangerous, like explosives or guns should be avoided. Our portable storage containers are not meant for animals or plant life, so you should never store any living thing in our containers. You should be careful about things that can be hazardous if they leak, like propane tanks or storing chemicals near each other if they can be dangerous when they’re mixed. Be careful with paint and cleaning projects as well.

Then there are things that you need to make a decision on. US News and World Report lists several other things that can be difficult to store. For example, you should be careful about humidity when you’re storing natural fabrics. Humidity is also a factor when storing furniture which can warp in the heat.

A.B. Richards Gives You Quick Access to Your Stored Items

If you take care of what you store and make certain that you do it safely, A.B. Richards will make everything else easy. Why lug your items across town to a remote storage facility when you can have your storage unit right near where you need it? You’ll always have quick access to your stored items with A.B. Richards.
