Climate-Controlled Storage

When you put items into self storage, there are a few things you should keep in mind. Certain best practices will help keep your items in good condition such as not stacking heavy boxes on top of fragile items, making sure clothing is neatly folded or hung up, and cleaning stains from furniture and upholstery.

Most importantly, you need to make sure that extreme temperatures in the summer and winter won’t damage your items. That’s where climate-controlled storage comes in. Climate-controlled storage keeps your stored items at a consistent temperature all year round to help make sure your stored items stay in the same condition as when you put them in storage.

Benefits of Climate-Controlled Storage

Climate-controlled storage is an important factor in making sure your items don’t suffer damage from excess heat or cold. When left in a non-climate-controlled storage unit, certain items can warp or melt in the heat and crack or freeze in the cold of winter. With climate-controlled storage, you gain peace of mind that your items will stay in an ideal environment, regardless of the weather outside.

Which Items Require Climate-Controlled Storage?

Climate-controlled storage is perfect for temperature-sensitive items that are prone to damage from heat or cold. It’s ideal for items such as:

Tips for Climate-Controlled Storage

When choosing a storage unit, remember that it’s better to have a climate-controlled storage unit and not need it than to need one and not have it. If you rent a storage unit and plan on using it for a while, chances are you’ll eventually need to store something that’s temperature-sensitive. When it’s time to put that item into storage, do you rent another unit with climate control just for that item?

Maybe you’re only planning on storing your temperature-sensitive items in the fall or spring before the weather gets too extreme. If your plans fall through and you need to store your items for another two or three months, you’re left with the choice of moving your items to a new unit or leaving them to the elements.

Just like with any storage unit, it’s a good idea to make the most of your space. That means using vertical space, storing items on top of furniture if possible, and leaving a path so you can access all of your items. And above all, make sure you stay organized and label your boxes.
