Are you moving into or out of Torrance, CA? People often think that when it comes to storing their belongings, any regular storage unit will do.
How safe are your belongings when you put them in a non-climate-controlled storage unit? Items that are sensitive to high heat or humidity might not be safe at all. Especially in the area of Torrance, having a climate-controlled storage unit will save you money, time, belongings, and a headache.
Oftentimes, we see people have a storage unit that isn’t climate-controlled, and when they unpack their belongings a year later, most of them are warped and destroyed. Instruments, important documents, photo albums, furniture, etc. will all get destroyed if they are not held in a unit that keeps the climate perfect.
If your item can warp or crack in extreme temperatures or humidity, it should go in a climate controlled space. Here are some examples of items that you may want to consider storing:
- Metal, leather, wood, fabric, and wicker furniture
- Books and Documents
- Musical Instruments
- Vinyl Records
- Electronics (computers, tvs, cameras)
- Collectibles (art, wine, antiques)
- Bedding, mattresses, and pillows
- Medications or survival supplies
Unfortunately, extreme temperatures can wreak havoc on sensitive items. The good news is SecureSpace Self Storage offers premium but cost-effective climate-controlled storage units.
Will you have to change storage units when seasons change?
If you choose a climate-controlled unit, the answer is no! Moving all of your belongings every change of season can become exhausting and stressful. When you choose a storage unit that already provides the climate you need, the worry and stress of any of your belongings will go away.
Is it more expensive to have a climate-controlled storage unit?
Yes, and no. While most storage units in Torrance, CA that offer a climate-controlled unit are more expensive than those that don’t, the pro of having one is in the long-term, it will save you money. Imagine if you had all of your favorite items, family belongings, furniture, and photo albums in a unit that wasn’t stored with a controlled climate. You come to pick it up after a long summer, and you notice most of the items are warped, rustic, or destroyed. This would not only be expensive to replace them, but some of the items are truly irreplaceable. The price you pay for having a unit that will store your items in safety is worth it.
