Storage Tips: How to Maximize Your Space
At Boxly, we understand that space is a valuable resource. To help you make the most of your storage unit, we’ve put together some practical tips that will keep your belongings organized and easy to access.
1. Start with a Plan
Before you move anything into your storage unit, take some time to plan out the layout. Consider the items you’ll need to access most frequently and place them closer to the entrance. Group similar items together, such as seasonal clothing, sports equipment, or office supplies. A little planning can save you time and frustration down the road.
2. Use Quality Packing Materials
Investing in sturdy boxes, bubble wrap, and packing tape can make a world of difference when it comes to protecting your belongings. Use uniform box sizes to make stacking easier and reduce the risk of damage. Don’t forget to label each box clearly with its contents—this simple step can save you a lot of time when you’re looking for specific items.
3. Optimize Your Space
Maximize the space in your storage unit by stacking boxes and using shelving units. Place heavier boxes on the bottom and lighter ones on top to prevent crushing. If you’re storing furniture, consider disassembling pieces like bed frames and tables to save space. Use drawers to store small items, and take advantage of vertical space by stacking carefully.
4. Protect Sensitive Items
For items that are sensitive to temperature and humidity, such as electronics, artwork, or important documents, make sure to use climate-controlled storage. Boxly offers temperature-regulated units that keep your belongings safe from extreme temperatures and moisture, ensuring that your valuables remain in pristine condition.
5. Create an Inventory List
An inventory list is especially useful for businesses managing stock or individuals storing large amounts of personal items. Keep a detailed list of everything you place in storage, and update it whenever you add or remove items. This can help you track what’s in your unit and makes it easier to locate specific items.
Moving Tips: Simplifying Your Relocation
Moving can be stressful, but with the right approach, it doesn’t have to be. Whether you’re moving homes, relocating your office, or expanding your business, these tips will help you streamline the process.
1. Plan Ahead for a Smooth Move
Start planning your move at least a month in advance. Create a timeline that includes packing, setting up utilities, and scheduling movers. If you’re using a storage unit during your move, make sure it’s ready and accessible on moving day.
2. Declutter Before Packing
Moving is a great opportunity to declutter. Go through your belongings and decide what to keep, donate, or dispose of. This can significantly reduce the number of items you need to pack, making the process faster and more cost-effective.
3. Pack Room by Room
Packing room by room can help keep things organized. Label each box with its corresponding room and a brief description of its contents. This will make unpacking much easier, especially if you’re storing some items with Boxly for a short period before moving them into your new space.
4. Use Specialty Boxes for Fragile Items
Fragile items like glassware, artwork, and electronics require special care. Use specialty boxes designed for these items, and make sure to wrap them securely in bubble wrap or foam. Boxly’s storage units are ideal for keeping these items safe during the transition.
5. Consider Professional Movers
If you have large or heavy items, consider hiring professional movers. They have the expertise and equipment needed to transport your belongings safely. If you’re moving locally within Lucerne, Zurich, or Basel, Boxly’s central locations can serve as a convenient drop-off point for movers, making the process even more efficient.
Business Address Tips: Establishing Your Presence in Switzerland
Having a professional business address is crucial for building trust with clients and partners, especially for startups, international businesses, and SMEs. Here’s how to make the most of Boxly’s business address services.

Selecting a business address in a prestigious location can enhance your brand’s credibility. Boxly offers business addresses in key Swiss cities like Lucerne, Zurich, and Basel. Each location is strategically chosen to provide easy access to major transportation routes, ensuring that your business is well-connected.
2. Use Your Address for Marketing
A professional business address isn’t just for official documents—it’s also a powerful marketing tool. Use your Boxly address on your website, business cards, and other marketing materials to project a professional image. This is particularly valuable for international businesses looking to establish a foothold in the Swiss market.
