we store them in a large indoor facility.

Q. How do I keep items from shifting during transit?
A. Packing your units is a simple task!
Treat them just like you would a truck. Remember that your units
are only 4 inches from the ground. Place your heavier items on
the bottom and lighter items on the top. Fill in as much empty
space as you can and utilize packing supplies. Things like moving
blankets and using the appropriate boxes are the single most important
factors in a successful move.
