JAKARTA - Has the warehouse at home looked messy lately? If so, it's most likely because you've filled it with stuff that's actually not supposed to be stored there.

Gugang is the right place to store items that are often used for gardening, playing in the yard, and items that are no longer used," said Perri Kersh, founder of the NearTM Professional Organizing, LLC, at Chapel Hill.

Most warehouses do not have a temperature controller, so it is not ideal for goods that require stable temperatures, Hill continued.

So, before storing items in the warehouse, find out what items according to the ahi should not be stored in the warehouse, according to Southern Living, Friday, November 10.

Do not store clothes or other textile items that are not used in the warehouse.

The humid period can create moisture and cause the growth of mold or moss in these items, explains Kristin Gorin, co-founder of Get Organized RVA in fasting, Virginia.

In addition, small animals can sneak in and tarnish, damage, or make holes in the cloth.

"To protect textiles, choose to store them indoors, in a cool, dry, and pest-free environment," suggested Rachel Gitzen, founder of Rah and Co in Columbia, South Carolina.

Warehouse should not be converted as an extension of the kitchen of the house. All types of unsuitable food are stored in the warehouse.

The frozen temperature can affect canned food stored in the warehouse, causing the cans to get correlated or stop and spill into your other items, "said Gorin.

In addition, heat can cause fast foods to be damaged and packaged foods are easily accessible to insects and small animals, he added. The same applies to animal foods and bird feed.

You should not place important papers or documents in warehouses, but in an archive cupboard at home. Because moisture and heat in the warehouse can cause pages to stick to each other, grow fungi, and attack pests," Gorin said.

Important letters are not only more susceptible to theft, but can also be damaged by heat, "golin notes.

In addition, think about whether it is really practical to put documents in warehouses. As revealed by Stephanie Worinkeng, founder of A Time To Organize in Greenville, South Carolina, apart from climate control issues, warehouses are not easy spaces to access and enjoy memories of photos and documents worth storing.

You may have the intention of keeping toys for the next generation, but keeping these items in the warehouse can be dangerous.

"Hot exposure for a long time can make plastic toys fragile, making it easy to crack and break," explained Gorin. Toys like dolls will also not work properly if they are exposed to bad weather," he added.

If you no longer use an outdated DVD or radio player, then donate it.

"Tikus and otherAUs often enter the warehouse and these animals like to bite the cable," commented Laura Gutowski, founder of Everything in It's Space in feasibility, South Carolina.

Maybe your intention is to store empty containers in the warehouse to later be used to fill unused items. Unfortunately, empty blocks should not be placed in the warehouse.

"The kontaner itself spent space in the warehouse," said Emily Evans, founder of Elimate with Emily in Kentucky.

If you don't plan to move next year, there's no reason to keep trash cans and empty boxes. The cardboard box, either filled or not, must be thrown away because it can attract all kinds of insects," Evans explained.

If these items are no longer useful for you, then remove these items from the warehouse and donate them. Warehouses are often a disposal site for old toys, yard tools, sports equipment, and gardening equipment.

If you don't use it anymore, donate it to people who need it more. Besides being useful, you will also get extra space in the warehouse to put things in touch with new hobbies.
