Getting a storage unit is a great decision if you have too many belongings to fit in your house. However, many features can help make your unit more suited to your needs. Specifically, you want to ensure it comes with climate control.
PROTECTION FROM FLUCTUATING TEMPERATURES
Depending on where you live, it might get extremely hot during the summer and cold in the winter. These vast fluctuations in temperature can damage certain items, especially furniture and instruments made of wood. Books and paintings also need to be stored in well-maintained areas.
PROTECTION FROM VARYING WEATHER
Units with climate control generally also have additional protections in place to prevent water from seeping in when it rains. Your unit will also be sealed off from mice, ants and other pests that can ruin your valuables.
SUPERIOR INDOOR AIR QUALITY
Additionally, climate control prevents dust from accumulating on your possessions. This is particularly important if you are storing electronics that could potentially become damaged if they get too dirty.
Whether you need to store your items for a month, a year or longer, you need to ensure their well-being. You do not want to return to your unit to find that your materials have been damaged in any way. To get a
