Heated Storage Den

 Heated Storage – Grizzly comes out of hibernation

What is Heated Storage or Climate Controlled Storage and is it really necessary? 

 The world of self storage offers customers many options, including climate control. Anything other than storing outdoors will provide a basic level of protection against the elements, but blocking the wind and rain is not always enough. Customers with certain types of stored goods will require more protection, particularly when the storage facility resides in an area that experiences extremely high or low temperatures or high humidity. A non-heated, non-insulated space is subjecting contents to these extremes which will have its effect on stored contents over time. The longer you rent a unit, the more likely you are to need to control the unit’s climate with heat.  

Here in the damp Northwest, moisture in the air can have an affect on sensitive stored items such as:  

 books, paper goods, photographs, wood, musical instruments, electronics, artwork, clothing, fine furniture, leather goods  

 Packing your items well will help, but for these types of items your best bet is a heated storage space. Consistent temperature ranges and airflow circulation systems help minimize the potential for damage to your goods due to moisture. Almost all of our storage space is insulated and heated with a temperature range of 50-70 degrees. Air circulation fans maintain constant air movement, a critical component to an effective system.  

Ok so I need it, but will I have to pay more for my heated space?  

Often the answer is NO, so be sure to ask exactly what you are getting when you do your price shopping. With today’s modern and efficient heated storage systems, good storage operators are learning that they must deliver more to their customers. After all we are in the business of storing and protecting your belongings. Ensuring you renting Heated Storage is one way you can minimize risk of damage to your belongings.
