Clothes and footwear

Many people turn the balcony into a place to store wardrobe items, shoes, sneakers and boots.

This is not the best solution, as the outdoor area can be quite humid.

Clothes and shoes may get wet, become moldy and start to smell bad.

Flammable materials and substances

The balcony is exposed to direct sunlight. Therefore, you cannot store things there that can easily explode or catch fire.

We are talking about aerosols, gas cylinders, fuel containers, paints and varnishes, etc.

Heavy objects

A balcony is not the place for an old refrigerator, a broken washing machine or a huge closet.

Such things can seriously increase the load on the structure. In such circumstances, even a collapse is not excluded.

Electric scooter

Many owners of electric scooters store this means of personal mobility on the balcony. Even in winter. And this is a gross mistake.

It is important to remember that low and high temperatures can negatively affect the condition of the battery.

Earlier we told you where to store bread so that it stays fresh longer.
