the already mentioned Damp Rid and baking soda sound great. Also newspapers layered in .

When I was moving to a new state about 15 years ago & my stuff, including a small 13 cu ft upright freezer, would be held in storage by the mover for about a month while I was between houses.   I asked about how to keep the freezer from getting stinky from being shut all that time.  One of the moving co. guys told me to go get a pair of knee-high, like ladies trouser socks & a couple of lbs of activated aquarium charcoal from a pet store & put the charcoal in the socks & tie them at the top to keep the charcoal from spilling all over & then, hang the socks off of the wire racks in my freezer. I tied the socks with some kitchen twine onto the wire racks of the freezer after I'd washed out the inside of the freezer & left it open for a few days prior to the move so it was dry.  It worked like a charm, the freezer had zero smell inside, even though it had been closed for over a month by the time it got here.  I no longer have that freezer, but I do still have those little bags of charcoal out in my garage. 

The activated charcoal looks sort of like this:

@house_cat  also make sure that the storage room is climate controlled.
