here are more information abot fur storage:
It's fairly likely we're not getting anymore snow this year and so you need to think about where you're going to store your fur. And you'll need to do this in the next few weeks before it gets hot so you preserve your investment and so your coat has the same sheen and suppleness next year as it did this season.
And while it's tempting to think about stuffing your coat in a cedar closet in the basement wrapped in plastic - that is absolutely the WORST thing you can do. Furs need to breath and will suffocate in a plastic bag. Cedar closets and moth balls will not preserve your coat from heat and also you may never get the smell out! Professional fur storage facilities baby your fur coats by keeping them stored in a roomy, temperature controlled environment that are also light and humidity controlled.
What can happen otherwise is that the more often your coat is exposed to humidity, it loses natural oils that keep the fur supple. Think about fur coats you find in vintage shops that are stiff, shedding and uncomfortable to wear, that's what can happen to your fur if you don't store it properly every summer.
Some dry cleaners offer a storage service but your best bet is to ship your coat to a professional fur storage. Many pick up and will deliver but Fed Ex and UPS can provide boxes to ship your coats. Here are a few reputable fur cleaning and storage places worth calling.
