Regardless of size there are two things to consider before storing in the attic.
Number one is the heat factor. It gets extremely hot up there.
Number two is the weight factor. We do not have to consider snow load on our roofs so the trusses are made up of 2X4's. Not a big problem but one to consider.
Getting "stuff" up and down is no day at the beach either.
