More important is to consider the heat. It gets super-hot up there. Do not store anything that will be damaged by heat.
For example, not the artificial Christmas tree. Over several years ours faded and got brittle.
I would avoid storing plastics and textiles in the attic.
Others' experiences may differ.

I've heard it gets very hot up in the attic - you mention to not store plastic up there... so what is "safe" to store up there? Leather? Metal? Are Rubbermaid bins with tops okay to use up there? What about luggage?
Do you recommend getting the radiant heat barrier and extra insulation?
Thanks!
