Commercial Outdoor Furniture Massachusetts
Massachusetts also enjoys beautiful weather, especially in the summers, with temperatures varying from a comfortable 20°C to 35°C. If you own an establishment with an outdoor space, you may have set up a lot of furniture around the area to offer customers extra seating and help them enjoy the balmy summer weather.
But the onset of fall and winter invites freezing temperatures ranging from 0°C to 20°C or even lower. The state also gets a lot of rain and snow, making outdoor furniture susceptible to damage. So, you may have to close up your outdoor space and put your furniture in storage during winter.
We share a few simple tips to help you safely store commercial outdoor furniture in Massachusetts, so they last for years.
Storing Commercial Outdoor Furniture During Winters in Massachusetts
Caring for your commercial outdoor furniture in the freezing winter temperatures of Massachusetts is essential to help it last longer. Here are some helpful ways to care for and store different types of outdoor furniture in winter:
Wooden Furniture
Wood is a popular natural material for outdoor furniture. It favors many styles and looks beautiful. However, maintaining wooden outdoor furniture is a challenging task. Before storing it for the winter, remove the fabric cushions. Wash your wooden furniture with oil soap designed for wooden surfaces. Allow the furniture to dry thoroughly before putting it in your storage space.
Wood is also susceptible to moisture, so store your furniture indoors.
Resin and Metal Furniture
Many business owners buy resin and metal furniture pieces for outdoor spaces because of their durability. But you must also care for them to prevent damage from winter weather conditions. Remove fabric cushions, and use soapy water to clean your furniture. Dry it completely before storing it indoors.
Resin furniture specifically made with weather-resistant materials are great for preventing moisture and mold when left outdoors. However, if you plan to store furniture outdoors, you can increase its lifespan by using a protective cover to shield it from the elements.
Other Tips for Storing Commercial Outdoor Furniture in the Winter
Small stackable or foldable furniture pieces are the easiest to store. Remove their cushions and store them in a plastic bag or bin. Seal them properly to prevent rodents from accessing them.
You can also use furniture covers to protect your furniture from the weather when stored outside and dust when indoors. Use plastic tarpaulin sheets and fasten them with bungee cords, or buy pre-fitted covers to combat moisture, dust, and debris.
Conclusion
Proper storage will help your commercial outdoor furniture last longer and look as good as new. It will help you get more value for money and reduce the need for frequent replacements.
