Moving into store. Part four of four.

 - Keep a list. The removal company will make an inventory of everything they put into the containers, but if you make a list of what you have placed inside your boxes and then number and mark on the appropriate room destination this will help when they come out of store. You will never remember what is in each box, especially when they have been in storage for a while.

 - Notice. Don't expect to be able to give a couple of days notice to get at, or have you furniture delivered. The nature of containerised storage is that you can stack the containers on top of each other saving space, and in a warehouse with hundreds of containers yours are bound to be ones at the very back. Try and give as much notice as you can preferably 2 weeks or more.

 - Warn of any access problems. The vans that the containers travel in are very tall, up to 14 feet, so if you anticipate any problems tell the company and they will be able to arrange an alternative.
