Pets And The Moving ProcessBy joel on June 15, 2012 | 1,257 Comments
For many people their pet is a valued member of the family, and any move requires that you find an apartment that will allow them to come along too. The moving process can be a long process, and having an animal may add a few more things to your moving check list but they are worth it. Here are a few tips on moving with pets.
• Talk to your veterinarian if you are moving a long distance away. You will want to get any shot records that they have, as well as making sure that your animal has all of their vaccinations up to date before the move. Ask the veterinarians office if they have any recommendations for great vets in your new town.
• Use the internet to search out and find a veterinarian ahead of time. Find one with positive online feedback, and call and talk to them about any questions you may have about getting there and to see if they are taking new animals.
• Make sure and update the tags on your animals to include your new address and phone number. If your pet has a chip in them be sure and contact the microchip company with your updated information.
• Be sure and have a pet carrier or crate available for the moving and packing process. The packing process can be long and one of the best ways to maintain organization during the process is to rent a self storage Toronto space. When boxes are packed up you can move them out of the space and into a storage unit. This will give you and your pet more room to move around the house as well as be able to clean as you pack. Having a pet carrier or crate when you are moving boxes and furniture out of the house can be essential to keeping your indoor animals from getting out. On moving day when you are traveling to the self storage Toronto space to get your boxes and furniture you will want to have a carrier so they do not get out of the car. Additionally it is safer for them than possible being thrown around the car should you have to make any sudden stops along the way.
• Be sure and label any boxes that contain the pets food, bowls, and toys, and pet supplies if they are going into a self storage Toronto space. Your pet will need these items in the new home, and by setting them up with their stuff they may adjust to the new home easier.
• Before you let your pet out of their carrier in the new home check for any hazards like holes in the fence or a loose window screen that may let them get out and become lost in the new environment.
These are just a few of the tips that can help you survive the packing and moving process with pets. Just remember that with a little bit of planning ahead you can make your move much easier for all people and animals involved.

Self Storage For Growing BusinessesBy joel on June 13, 2012 | 1,052 Comments
Many people can look around their home and see at least a small pile of clutter that they could just not find a place to store it. While many people look around the home and see how they could utilize a Scarborough storage unit it clean up clutter and organize the space most people forget to look around their office and see the same benefits of self storage for their work place.
How many times have you heard someone say around the office “If I have to add one more filing cabinet in here I wont be able to fit at my desk any longer?” How many times have you sat at your own desk looking at the piles of paperwork and thinking that you need more organization for your office.
One of the great things about Scarborough storage facilities is that they cater not only to the homeowner but the business owner as well. Businesses use self storage for all sorts of reasons, but here are just a few ways that they use self storage for their business:
• Inventory- every business has some type of inventory that is necessary for the success of the business. Often times one of the most expensive parts to having inventory is having a place to store it all. With a self storage space, business find the storage they need for their inventory. This is especially great for businesses who have seasonal items of inventory, and for the remainder of the year may not be sold at all.
• Files- While we may live in a technological age, there is still a mountain of paperwork to be filled, filed and stored. With only so much space to add in filing cabinets it can become an overwhelming task to keep everything organized and to house all of those filing cabinets. Scarborough storage can be the perfect solution when looking for a clean, affordable, and safe place to keep any extra files.
• Equipment- Office equipment can be drastically different depending on what type of business it is that you have. Some office equipment consists of a fax machine and a printer while others need to find a space to hold large tools and construction equipment. Construction equipment can be especially hard to find a storage space for when it is a vehicle that needs to be parked. Not only do many self storage facilities offer great self storage units for indoor storage, but offer parking spaces for rent as well.
These are just a few of the examples of how a self storage unit can really help your business to become organized, and as your company grows and expands having a solution already in mind for how to accommodate your business growth can be a great advantage to maintaining the growing momentum. So take a look around your office and envision how self storage in Scarborough can help you maintain a clean and clutter free organized space so that business can continue uninterrupted.

Self Storage And Moving ChecklistsBy joel on June 12, 2012 | 1,376 Comments
Check lists are pretty much a “must have” item when dealing with the moving process. Check lists help us to remember all of the little details that, if left undone, can throw a wrench into a smooth moving plan. Here are a few examples of check lists that can help you created a less stressful move.
• Utilities/Mail checklist- this is a list that you have begun compiling as soon as you knew you were moving. Any time a piece of mail comes you write it on the checklist. Keep track with this check list of who you talked to, when you need to have further contact, and any dates associated with the bills that may be important during the moving process. Be sure to contact all utilities providers, credit card bills, car insurance companies, and magazine subscriptions with your new address to avoid any missed bills or any lost communication. Set scheduled dates for all utilities to be either turned off or switched over to another’s name on the day of the move.
• Packing checklist- this is a list of all of the packing supplies that you will need to get started on the packing process. There are many specialty packing items, like electronic boxes, furniture pads, and glass wear dividers that you don’t want to forget. Make a packing “shopping” list so that you will have all of the tools you need to pack.
• Keep a calendar with dates. Life will continue to provide you with events and obligations during your moving process. Schedule your time out, and remember that packing does requires some time dedicated to it, so be sure not to overbook yourself.
• Since you will be utilizing a self storage in Toronto space to help you during the move, be sure and keep track of dates when friends will be over to help you move larger, heavier items such as furniture. This will give you plenty of time to prepare for their arrival and have a space cleared out to move items.
• Moving day checklist- this is a schedule of what the moving day will look like. Make sure the friends and family members who are helping you move know what time to arrive and have a schedule for the day. List the start time to the day, and where to meet. Since you are utilizing the checklist method all of your packing can be done ahead of time so it may be easiest for your moving party to meet you at your self storage in Toronto space.
• Car checklist- This is a list of all the things that should not be packed away, but needs to make it into the car on moving day. This includes any medication, your child’s favorite stuffed animal, towels and toilet paper (you want to be able to find that when you get to your new house), important documents, and the keys to the lock on your self storage in Toronto space.
With the checklist method in place there were be less of a chance that you have forgotten anything, and more of a chance that your move runs smoothly.
