Jewellery is a highly valued possession, and it can be attractive to thieves if stored at home. It may even become damaged if you don’t care for it properly. Fortunately, self-storage provides the solution you need to ensure your jewellery is safe.
At Gilmorton Storage, this month’s blog looks at how to store jewellery in a storage unit. For information, call us in Leicester on 07815 013 883.

Prepare it for Storage
Gilmorton Storage Ltd
If you’re storing your jewellery in self-storage, you won’t be using it for a while. Therefore, you should prepare it properly. There are many ways to clean and brush various metals.
Prior to storing them, you should make sure each piece is fully dry.

Cover
Gilmorton Storage Ltd
Gilmorton Storage is located in Leicester but can provide our storage facilities and Container Storage Units to people across Leicestershire.
Use the Right Storage Containers
Jewellery is best stored in dry and dark containers. This helps protect your pieces from any moisture. Felt-lined boxes are great for protecting metals from the environmental components.
Separate or compartment boxes are great as it means you can store each piece separately to avoid damaging any delicate jewellery.
Insure Your Pieces
If, in worst-case scenario, your jewellery is stolen in storage, you want to make sure that it is insured. When looking for insurance, it is important you read the policy carefully so that everything is well covered.
