Get matched with top closet pros in Burlington, IL

Q: Does it take longer to remodel or build a new custom closet?

• <div><p>Although you can complete a closet frame in just an afternoon, finishing the entire closet will take a few days to a week. However, that&rsquo;s still not as much as the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/average-days-for-closet-remodel.htm">average time it takes to remodel a closet</a>, which can take anywhere from several weeks to more than a month. That&rsquo;s because you also have to consider the time it will take to demolish the existing space, plan a new design, order materials, and actually install it. </p></div>

Q: Are books heavier than clothes?

• <div><p>Yes, books are typically heavier than clothes, unless you have a collection exclusively of paperbacks or comic books. That&rsquo;s why packing lots of books warrants careful planning and consideration. Consider packing up your reading collection first to determine whether you need to downsize it before loading it into your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-size-moving-truck.htm">moving truck</a>.</p></div>

Q: Can I stack packed boxes?

• <div><p>Since they are so fragile, it is not usually recommended to stack anything on top of your packed lamps. If you have sturdy boxes, and what you plan to put on top of them is of a similar weight, it&rsquo;s okay to stack.</p></div>

Q: What type of wood is best for closet shelves?

• <div><p>Plywood, MDF (medium-density fiberboard), and solid wood are all popular options for closet shelving. Plywood and solid wood are sturdy and ideal for extended shelves or heavy items. MDF is a budget-friendly choice for light to moderate storage, but it can sag under heavy weight if not adequately supported. Wire shelving is another alternative that allows airflow, making it especially useful in humid spaces such as laundry rooms or basements.</p></div>

Q: How to pack clothes for long-term storage?

• <div><p>When storing your clothes long-term, first consider the container's breathability. While plastic bags, cardboard boxes, or vacuum sealing may be great options for short-term storage, they won&rsquo;t help your clothes hold up in the long term. Breathable plastic boxes and fabric bags help with airflow, prevent mold or mildew from building up, and allow proper airflow.</p></div>
