Holiday Storage Made Easy

As the holidays approach, it’s easy to get caught up in decorating, gifting, and celebrating—but what about when it’s all over? The start of November is the perfect time to plan ahead and make storing your seasonal décor simple and stress-free.

If your attic or garage is running out of space, a portable building can be your go-to solution for keeping holiday items protected, organized, and ready for next year. Here’s how to store everything—from ornaments to outdoor lights—so it lasts longer and is easier to find.

🎁Protect Your Holiday Décor

1. Choose clear bins for easy access.

See what’s inside at a glance by using clear, labeled containers. Group items by theme—like “Red & Gold Tree Décor” or “Outdoor Lights”—so you’ll know exactly where to look next season.

2. Wrap delicate ornaments carefully.

Use tissue paper, bubble wrap, or even leftover gift wrap to cushion fragile ornaments. Store them in plastic bins instead of cardboard to prevent moisture damage.

3. Keep wreaths and garlands looking new.

Hang wreaths on a pegboard wall or use specialty wreath containers. Coil garlands loosely in large bags to keep them from tangling or flattening.

🌲Store Artificial Trees the Smart Way

Before packing away your tree, make sure it’s clean and dry. Compress the branches gently and store each section in a durable tree bag or bin—these protect much better than the original box.

If you have multiple trees, label each one (“Living Room Tree,” “Porch Tree,” etc.) to make next year’s setup effortless.

💡 Tangle-Free Light Storage Tips

Holiday lights are easier to manage when you:

• Wrap each strand around cardboard or a light reel to prevent knots.
  
• Store cords in labeled bags for easy identification.
• Keep them in a lidded bin to avoid dust and moisture buildup.
  

🏠 Layout Ideas for Portable Buildings

Whether you have a cozy shed or a large workshop, organizing your space now will save time (and frustration) later.

Small Portable Buildings:

• Maximize vertical space with shelving and wall hooks.
• Store bins under tables or along walls to keep pathways clear.
• Create seasonal sections—Winter, Summer, Fall—for quick access.

Large Portable Buildings:

• Designate zones for holidays, tools, and household overflow.
• Use rolling racks for flexible, mobile storage.
• Install overhead lighting for easy access on winter evenings.
