Outdoor furniture is expensive and if you do not want to replace it every couple of years it is important that you cover it when you are not using it or storing it. The covers you get are designed especially for each piece of outdoor furniture. These covers are like top to bottom drapes and at the bottom you can either tie them using a drawstring or with a zipper. There is no reason to fasten them if the covers fit the outdoor furniture snugly so you can just leave them loose.

In addition to covering your outdoor furniture when you are storing it away for the winter there are other reasons to do it when you have it out but not using it at that time.

• Wooden outdoor furniture can split if it is exposed too much sun.
• The sun can wear away the paint on wrought iron outdoor furniture and cause it to rust more.
• If it rains and your wooded patio furniture gets extremely wet you can say good-bye to the furniture because nothing made of wood can survive if it has been thoroughly drenched with water. This includes snow so make sure you put your wooded outdoor furniture away at season’s end.
• Birds can make a big mess on your outdoor furniture and it can be a big chore to clean off the droppings every time you want to use the outdoor furniture.
• They save you the job of cleaning dust, dirt, pollen, leaves, etc. from the outdoor furniture.

Buying tips for outdoor furniture covers

• Although it is possible to get outdoor furniture covers from a local home improvement store or the internet they may not fit your outdoor furniture correctly. You may need to have them custom made. The best way to do that is find a local provider of outdoor furniture covers, make an appointment for them to come, and measure your furniture. Having them made specifically for your outdoor furniture will make them protect your furniture better and they will look nicer.
• Make sure that whichever covers you choose are durable and will withstand the weather and protect your outdoor furniture Perth. One type of material is synthetic because they are great for keeping out the climatic upheavals that can affect your outdoor furniture. You can also choose vinyl because they protect against the UV rays and are waterproof but they should be at least seven millimeters thick. The covers should also be lightweight so they are easy to remove and put on.
