I am going to install new skirting boards in a room, 2 meters long with corners on each side if it matters.

Does the skirting need to acclimate before I install it, or can I take it from the hardware store's outdoor storage, then cut it and nail it directly, or will the skirting then shrink/warp and not fit tightly against the wall or floor?

I am going to install new baseboard in a room, 2 meters long with corners on each side if it makes any difference.

Does the baseboard need to acclimate before I install it, or can I take it from the hardware store's outdoor storage, then cut and nail it directly, or will the baseboard shrink/warp and not lie flush against the wall or floor?
let the baseboard sit in the room for 2 days before you cut it
