Summer Storage Solutions

School is back in session and the cool weather is coming. You know what that means- autumn is on the way! Here are some tips on storing your spring and summer clothing to make room for your warmer clothes:

Separate your garments.  Remove all shorts, tank tops and other summer items from your closet.

Check the condition of your clothes. Before packing your clothes away for the season make sure there are no stains on the items. Dry-clean or wash them as unseen stains can set in over time and cause damage such as fading.

Store your items in a dry, dark, cool and clean place.  Avoid placing clothes in a warm or wet area such as attic or basement. This can lead to mold or insects on your clothes. Always make sure your storage place has been thoroughly cleaned before using it.

Let your garments breathe. Never store clothing in sealed plastic bags or airtight containers. The lack of ventilation can cause moisture to form.

Use hangers for delicates.  Plastics and padded hangers work best. Clothing is less likely to experience shape distortion.
