Dimensions and comparison of accessibility to determine storage location

Measure not only the interior dimensions but also the entrance.

When choosing a storage location, check the length, width, and height of the item in a suitable position. Even if the inside of the case is spacious, it will be inconvenient if it cannot fit through the opening or through room passages. Reconsider whether a location where you have to bend or push the item forcefully each time you take it out is suitable for everyday storage.

Compare the weaknesses of each location.

For under the bed, check for dust and ensure you can access items in a low position; for closets, check for ventilation and prevent items from falling; and for storage cases, check for internal pressure and moisture. The best method will vary depending on the room and the product. Avoid direct sunlight and areas near heat sources, and also check the material and color of the surfaces that will come into contact with the items.

Leave it in a condition where it can be inspected.

It's also important to be able to check the condition after storing. Dry the surface, separate any sharp metal parts or dark fabrics, and follow the manufacturer's specified support method. Avoid stacking heavy items on top, and leave enough space to easily retrieve items when needed. Before deciding on a storage location, it's helpful to check the actual workflow with empty cases to make the decision easier.
