Long-term Storage with Sea Travel

[palitoy]

I had to do the same with my collection about 8 years ago. I also added dryer sheets to the bins.

Why the SILICA packs??? What exactly do they do???

They control moisture. Much like when you open a bottle of pills, there's that small non-editable packet. That's Silica, I believe.

You pretty much have a good plan for storing your stuff, as someone who has been storing for over 20 years, i have had my share of stories in dealing with storing,

good luck.

After shipping them by sea for around ten weeks, I plan to store my fifty-year-old Doctor Who Mego figures long-term. They will be wrapped in bubble wrap, placed in a plastic bin with silica gel packs, placed inside a larger box with packing material, sealed with packing tape, and stored in a climate-controlled facility for a year or more.

Is that the best way to do this? Do you have any advice?

Thank you!
