The attic is a great storage space for Christmas decorations and memorabilia from high school, family heirlooms, furniture that is not used, and even seasonal clothing. Each attic is equipped with an upper limit, and once the limit is reached, additional storage is no longer a possibility. Experts advise against keeping certain items in storage for more than several weeks and not years or months. Bed linen, clothing, stuffed animals, mattresses, and box springs are only some of the examples. These items do not only become a mess after several weeks and months, but they also are a breeding ground for pests, like mice, rats and bed bugs, dust mites, and spiders.

What Do Our Removal Experts Say About Attic Cleanout?
As mentioned previously, vulnerable objects should not be kept for longer than a few months. If stored in vacuum-sealed bags made of fabric like silk, cotton, twill linen, silk, and Viscose can be kept for up to two years. Storage bags sealed with vacuum protect objects from dust mites, termites, mice, crickets, cockroaches, beetles, and silverfish. But, there’s the issue of where to put the things.
If your attic is crowded out, an attic is stuffed to the brim, and an attic cleanout is your only alternative. Loft cleanout will allow room for your most recent summer or winter wardrobe, furniture with upholstery, etc.
Experts suggest homeowners clean out their attics at a minimum biannually. Lack of manpower, the use of a truck or another transport vehicle, or time should not stop you from cleaning out your attic. We suggest our expert attic clean-out if you do not have all of these essentials.
