Timeshare storage

BostonBakedBernie · 07-31-2009, 11:07 AM

We are planning on signing up and are wondering/looking for tips or ideas or the little things that others do or have learned not to do regarding storing stuff until they return.. Any insight other than the obvious (which at times is not very) would be greatly appreciated

Andrea is a pro of what she can fit in her bin. I have no where as much stuff and my bin is always at almost full weight of 50 lbs. Though this time Lou emailed me that I am 4lbs overweight when he picked up my bin in April. Make sure you have any spillable liquids/creams (sunblock, shampoos, etc.) in zipper storage bags. http://www.aruba.com/forum/f7/storage-40118/

as liz says ziplock bags for liquids
we don't have much heavy stuff......1 pr paul fins and 1 pair zoomers for me are the heavy items.
no towels

we put our clothing is bags as wel with a sheet or 2 of fabric softener to keep it a decent smell.

everything in my bin has always remained dry and smell free.

I use the service and it is great. We leave all our snokel gear, sunscreen and lotions along with our toiletries. Beach bag, small collapsable cooler. We just bring carryons with our clothes, can hop off the plane and head to the resort. First year I tried leaving clothes, but never knew what I left and if I would like it. They got quite wrinkled in the space bags also.
