Food Storage

Food Storage
My mother does not know how to make adjustments; especially
when it comes to food. She had eight kids and is accustomed
to food shopping for 10, which includes her and my dad. But
everyone has flown the coupe, and still she food shops for
eight hungry hippos as if no one has ever left. Her food
storage cabinets contain more cans than a grocery store
shelf. The refrigerator is ready to feed the entire state
of Rhode Island. She could set up some tables at the Rhode
Island welcome center and people could help themselves and
take home some leftovers.

Do you know anyone like this, who over food shops and needs
more food storage? Well this is not just a domestic issue.
Many food venders lack the food storage space in their own
homes, or they refuse to use their own homes for food
storage. Food venders seek relief in storage units for food
storage. If a storage unit is granted, food venders are
limited to package and canned goods for using storage units
as food storage. Freezer and refrigerator food usually is
prohibited.

Someone might be storing food for charity reasons. A social
worker might be collecting food donations to help feed the
hungry. In this case, storage units serve as temporary food
storage until the food is shipped to its destination.

If you are planning on using a storage unit for food
storage, take some precautions to insure that your storage
unit doesn't become infested with bugs and rats. Put bagged
food items in sealed storage bins. This will prevent bugs
and rats from smelling food in your storage unit. Storage
bins also keep them from penetrating the bags of food.
Store all the food goods off the ground. Use a shelf or
table to elevate the food from the floor. Double bag and
seal airtight all food items. Check the food for broken or
damaged packaging. If packaging is broken get rid of the
food by throwing it away or eating it. Leaving it in food
storage is an invitation for mice and rats. Taking these
precautions could save you and your storage neighbors from
infestation. Your storage neighbor is already nervous about
renting a storage unit next to food storage, so don't give
him any grief.

Food storage is best when kept in a climate control unit.
Climate control will insure that your food items be kept at
a constant 70 degrees. Your stored food won't spoil from
extreme temperature conditions. Preserved food doesn't last
forever; however, you don't have to shorten foods live by
letting it cook in 100 degree weather. Can drinks and
bottle drinks are ultra sensitive to temperature
variations. A can of seasoned can of soda will become stale
from climate change. So, to insure the best quality from
your product, keep food in a climate control unit.

Storing food in a storage unit can be a pleasurable
experience if it is done right. Otherwise you may cause a
nightmare for yourself and your storage unit neighbors.
