How To Pack Your Self Storage Container & Make The Most Of The Space

Packing well is what really decides whether a self storage container feels cramped or surprisingly roomy. Start by storing the heaviest, least-used items at the back and on the floor – things like furniture, appliances and boxes of books. Then build upwards and forwards with lighter items, using the full height of the unit rather than spreading everything across the floor. Leaving a narrow walkway down the middle means you can still get to the back of the storage unit without unloading half the container.

 

It usually helps to use strong, similarly sized boxes so they stack cleanly without bowing. Sofas, mattresses and wardrobes can often stand on their side to free up more floor space, and simple freestanding shelving may turn wasted headroom into usable storage. Before anything goes in, give it a quick clean and make sure it’s dry, then cover furniture with breathable sheets and keep boxes slightly off the floor on pallets or boards to reduce the risk of damp.

 

Clear labelling is what saves you digging through everything later. Mark each box on more than one side and keep the items you’re most likely to need – paperwork, tools, a few kitchen bits – close to the door. If you’re unsure how big a storage container you need or how to arrange a particular load, we can talk it through and suggest a layout that’s likely to work well for you.

Our Security

Storage is only really useful if you feel comfortable leaving your things behind. At Little Bear Storage Lincoln, site access is controlled and recorded, and the security measures are designed to be practical rather than a gimmick.


  • Controlled gated entry with a unique entry card for each customer.
  • Motion sensitive CCTV monitored 24/7 by a remote security monitoring centre.
  • Floodlit facility with high powered lighting to improve visibility across the site.
  • Heavy duty padlocks provided for storage units for an extra layer of protection.

No site can promise “risk free”, but we take security seriously so you can store with confidence.

Outstanding Service and Secure Storage at Little Bear Storage! We were in urgent need of a secure storage solution for our van conversion supplies, and Little Bear Storage exceeded our expectations. From the moment we reached out, Henry provided exceptional service, quickly arranging for us to move our supplies into a brand new, clean, and dry storage container. The facility is top-notch, situated behind a secure electronic gate, and you're given a fob for easy access. Security is clearly a priority here, as the container also comes with the biggest, most secure padlock you'll ever see, giving us complete peace of mind. The flexibility of a short monthly rolling contract was exactly what we needed, and within just a couple of hours of contacting Henry, we had everything stored away safely and conveniently. We can't thank Henry enough for his efficient service and highly recommend Little Bear Storage to anyone looking for a reliable, secure, and flexible storage solution!

Little Bear Storage is a great storage facility! Great location with nice easy but very secure access, lots of cameras, flood lights, secure electronic gate and high fencing. The storage units are clean, easily accessible and safe, and you can pull up right next to them. From the first meeting with Henry, he understood the size requirements and was correct, I needed bigger than I first thought! Fantastic communication all the way through, I couldn't ask for better. I'd definitely use again and highly recommend Little Bear Storage to everyone.

Very helpful and informative about storage containers. Knew exactly the size of container I needed from the initial conversation. Container it's self is clean and located in a easy to reach area with plenty of parking by the containers. We used a Luton truck to move my house and there was loads of room to manoeuvre. Price for the size of container is extremely competitive. I have recommended Little Bear Storage to others and will carry on recommending them.
