Storage
environment
A self
storage facility with a secure storage environment will ensure the safety
of your possessions. Check to see if adequate surveillance and security
measures are in place to keep your possessions safe. Look out for fire and
flood protection measures in the storage facility.
Ask
about measures to control the entry of pests and rodents into the storage
unit. Find out if the storage facility has back-up generators to maintain
the storage environment in case there is a power failure.
Storage
environments with high humidity and temperature can damage some items. You
can choose to keep your sensitive possessions in a climate controlled
storage unit that will keep them safe.
High
humidity can cause metal to rust and wood to rot. It can also cause your
important documents to rot while they are in storage. Musical instruments,
antiques, electronics, furnishings, mattresses, and furs may also be
affected by high humidity and temperature.
Based on
your storage environment needs you can opt to put your things in a climate
controlled self storage unit that offers temperature control, humidity
control, or both temperature and humidity control.
You will
have to pay more for a climate controlled storage unit. You can consider
putting your sensitive and valuable items in a climate controlled storage
unit, and put the rest of them in an ordinary storage unit to reduce the
cost.
