How to store computers

A tip from 1st Storage Centres

Computers, like your other electrical items, need special care. The original boxes are highly recommended for packing. However bubblewrap and good quality packing cartons will do the job. Remember to use some packing or linen in the bottom and top of cartons. This provides extra protection to the contents. Pack out any gaps. Modern computers have “self parking heads.” If you are unsure about your computer, refer to the manufacturer’s manual, or consult your retailer, especially if storing for longer than six months.
