To help prepare for your move, here is a look at some tips for preparing your artwork for storage.
Clean All Surfaces
When preparing to place your artwork in storage , it is important to clean all surfaces first. Use a microfiber cloth to dust off surfaces as dust and other forms of debris can create lingering damage when left to sit on delicate artwork for extended periods of time.Protect Framed Edges
If storing framed artwork itâs essential to protect the edges before placing it in storage. To cover framed artwork, use either bubble wrap or heavy duty felt. These items will prevent scratches, dings, and scrapes.Wrap Unframed Pieces

POUCH Happening – Jeremy the Traffic Cop
At Pouch Self Storage â Anaheim, our Specialists have many responsibilities and job functions. We are maintenance technicians that provide facility upkeep and repairs. We are bookkeepers so all of our financial records are correct and balance every day. We are marketing reps constantly generating new business to ensure our long term success. We are counselors for our customers who are seeking the right size for their storage needs. Recently, our Specialist Jeremy added a new job title to his list of duties here at Pouch. A traffic collision occurred right out in front of our facility. I called 911 while Jeremy went to see what he could do to assist. He helped the driver to the sidewalk to safety. Traffic immediately started to back up. He placed himself in front of the damaged vehicles and began directing traffic. Soon, the congestion was eased and traffic was flowing smoothly until the authorities arrived. New title: Jeremy, Traffic cop!

POUCH Happening – Three Units Please
We had a very nice lady that came in and rented three units. We told her it would be best if she rents one that will accommodate all her belongings instead of three. She still insisted on renting three units. We did three truck moves as well, one move per unit. This weekend she came in with her daughter who she listed as the emergency contact. After her introduction, her daughter asked her what size units did she rent. She quickly answered, small, medium and large. Her daughter then in a slow but quite loud voice so that her mom could hear said to us, âbefore she orders an extra large unit on our menu, to please call her first.â Her daughter immediately added, we own three restaurants and this is the best way to talk to her. Sheâll understand it better.

POUCH Happening – I Only Trust Pouch!
POUCH Self Storage Victoria received a call from a loyal POUCH Self Storage Anaheim customer. This customer trusts his shredding to POUCH, but found himself in a dilemma, with the shred bins full at our Anaheim & Tustin locations there was nowhere close for him to shred his 10 boxes of documents! This customer was ready to drive to our Rancho Cucamonga facility and said âI only trust my shredding to Pouch!â. To deliver the best possible customer service, we reached out to several of our Orange County facilities in an effort to locate a Pouch facility closer to him. With their shred bins just being emptied the week before, POUCH Self Storage Fountain Valley told us to have the customer come on down! The customer was so happy and said âThank you, now I donât have to drive so far, but I definitely would of!â
