Attention all you book lovers out there.

Remember before the days of the “electronic” e age when there really was an item called a book and it had a real cover and pages made from paper?

“A reader lives a 1,000 lives before he dies. The man who never reads only lives one.” George R R Martin.

Everyone has grown up with these books from infancy to high school years. Some we kept some we were happy to get rid of.

We amassed large quantities of these items and stored them neatly in bookshelves at home. There was something about the feel, the look and the smell of an actual book. There are also those hidden gems that have been passed down through generations that may have a date scribbled on the inside cover.

These books are just too good to simply discard. Great to keep and show to our children and theirs too. The last few decades our personal spaces have shrunk in size. Bookcases take up space.

What to do?

You can preserve these books for future generations by wrapping each book securely in packing paper. Then they can be stored in one of our strong and handy Medium Heavy or Medium Light Duty packing boxes.

We also have at our Kirrawee site a range of storage lockers that can accommodate these size boxes, and being 24 hour free access you can check on them at any time.

Log onto www.kss.com.au and you will find self storage prices, moving boxes and you can rent a space with only a few clicks. We will even cover your first month's insurance.

If you love personal service come in for a visit. Mike and David at Kirrawee are the storage expert with over 30 years service in the area.
