People living in areas where different seasons occur know that seasonal clothes storing is not a simple task of putting stuff away. In fact, when improperly stored, certain materials can be ruined and no longer usable. Make sure that clothes are clean before you put them away. Not every item and every material should be hanged, so ensure you understand which ones may stretch if you store them that way. Avoid materials such as cardboard and store your stuff in a cool and dry space.
Key Takeaways:
- Before you put your clothes away for the season, make sure that you have washed them so you don’t attract insects.
- Try to avoid plastic or cardboard packaging as this increases the risk of mildew and insects infiltrating your clothing and your home.
- Store your clothing in a dark, cool, dry spot such as the high shelf of your closet to keep the clothes safe.
“In general, any item that can lose its shape—knits, synthetics, and silks—should be folded for long-term storage.”
