Store garden furniture safely in a storage unit in Zurich

The days are getting shorter and the evenings cooler – summer is inevitably coming to an end. What is the best thing to do with your garden furniture so that you can set it back up in spring without winter damage? In a dry furniture storage unit like our affordable storage unit in Zurich, you won't have to worry about safe keeping anymore – we'll explain exactly what you need to keep in mind.

Why should garden furniture be stored away in winter?

Wooden garden furniture, regardless of whether it is treated or untreated, should never be left exposed to the elements all winter. At best, it will need a fresh coat of paint in the spring; at worst, mould will form. Pest infestation is also possible. To avoid this, you should protect your garden furniture from cold, damp weather. Unfortunately, a tarp is not enough to ward off wind and weather. Native woods in particular have very high care requirements and must be kept in protected indoor spaces.

What conditions are required to store your garden furniture safely?

The most important factor for safely overwintering your garden furniture is a dry indoor space. Simply protecting your furniture from UV radiation increases its lifespan - another benefit of storage. At the same time, however, you should make sure that it is not stored in a heated room, so that the wood does not crack and become brittle. Consistently cool spaces, like those in our affordable storage unit Zurich, are therefore perfect for preserving the value of your garden furniture.

Which garden furniture can you store in our cheap storage unit Zurich?

With us, you can store basically everything that was previously in your garden or on your balcony. Whether chairs, sun loungers, lounge furniture or dining tables, regardless of the material, everything finds a safe home with us. Heavy, solid items of furniture are also no problem at all. We don't even shrink from climbing frames, stone statues or garden gnomes. The only exception is gas bottles for your gas barbecue - for safety reasons, we are not allowed to store these in our cheap storage unit Zurich. However, the bottles can easily be returned to the shop where they were bought, and you can get new ones when needed.
