    Safeguard Your Treasures: Premium Warehouse Storage for Vintage Maps

    Storing your valuable vintage maps within a secure warehouse storage facility offers a robust and reliable solution for their long-term preservation. Warehousing provides exceptional protection from environmental fluctuations that can negatively impact delicate paper goods. Strategic placement within the warehouse, ideally away from direct sunlight and high-traffic areas, is crucial. Utilize sturdy, archival-quality boxes – ideally acid-free and lignin-free – to safeguard each map. Ensure maps are packed with sufficient padding to prevent rubbing and movement during storage. Regular inventory checks, documented meticulously, are essential for tracking each map’s location and condition. A warehouse environment offers a stable, secure space with professional security measures and often, organized racking systems that maximize space and facilitate easy retrieval. The inherent structural integrity of a warehouse provides a stable foundation for your collection, minimizing vibration and potential damage. Choosing a warehouse with experienced staff dedicated to handling valuable items further adds to the peace of mind, securing your investment and ensuring the longevity of your historical cartographic treasures.

    Space Requirements

    • Storage Size/Dimensions: Minimum 200 square feet, ideally 20ft x 10ft. Height clearance: 9 feet to accommodate stacking. Consider a larger area of 300 sq ft (15ft x 20ft) for future growth or specialized collections.

    • Storage Conditions: Dry storage is essential. The area should be well-ventilated to prevent dust accumulation. Avoid direct sunlight exposure to minimize fading. Maintain a consistent, dry environment.

    • Special Handling: All maps are considered fragile. Each map should be individually wrapped in acid-free tissue paper and buffered cardboard padding. Heavy maps should be supported with bracing. Handle with gloves to prevent oils from transferring to the paper.

    • Stacking/Shelving: Utilize adjustable shelving units with a minimum shelf height of 48 inches. Pallet storage (48" x 40") is permissible for larger collections, but maps should be placed on sturdy pallets. Stacking is limited to 3-4 boxes per shelf, depending on the map's size and weight.

    • Access Requirements: Loading dock: 12ft wide x 14ft long. Warehouse door: Minimum 8ft wide for easy access with a pallet jack. A clear aisle space of 8ft is required for maneuverability. Forklift access is recommended for efficient movement of larger pallets.
