Weight distribution pads and pressure padding should be stored in which manner?

• A. Open
• B. In a locked room
• C. On floor
• D. Closed

Answer: (D)

Keeping weight distribution pads and pressure padding in a closed storage setup protects the equipment from dust, moisture, and damage while maintaining cleanliness and shape. Closed storage also prevents these pads from becoming tripping hazards or getting contaminated when left out on the floor. Storing them openly or on the floor increases exposure to elements and wear. A locked room isn’t typically required unless your policy calls for extra security; the key point is to have them stored in a closed enclosure.
