Plan a stable support surface, a clear route and a storage position approved for your model.

Choose the storage space early
Measure available space with enough clearance to lift and reposition the model. Compare those dimensions with the assembled model and the package. Set aside a dry area protected from direct sunlight and ask which position the seller recommends for the build.
Check the support method
Before buying a stand or fitting, confirm the model and whether the recommended hardware supports the selected weight. If you plan to store the model on a surface, ask where to support its weight and which joints should remain in a neutral position.
Make moving part of the plan
Use the seller’s handling directions, prepare the route and decide where you can safely set the model down. If the packed or unpacked weight makes handling difficult, arrange help or suitable equipment before moving it. Check whether removing any component is supported by the instructions.
Protect the finish in storage
Choose a clean covering approved for the material and confirm whether clothing should be removed for long storage. Inspect the surface occasionally for pressure marks, moisture or colour transfer. Contact the seller with the model and material before trying an unfamiliar treatment.
