You are moving or downsizing and have decided to rent a self storage unit in Edmonton. You will need to determine what size of storage unit you need; however, there are also different types of storage units. There are standard unheated storage units or climate-controlled storage units. You need to decide, "Do I need climate-controlled storage or unheated storage?"
Climate-controlled storage refers to a type of storage that keeps a steady temperature within your self-storage space. Delicate and vulnerable belongings are safeguarded more effectively in such environments, as they are protected from exposure to severe temperature fluctuations.
Self storage can be used on a short-term or long-term basis. Renting a climate-controlled storage unit in Edmonton ensures that your belongings remain as you left them.
Climate controlled storage units are often located inside buildings with sealed and insulated roofs, walls, and floors. These units are less susceptible to minor flooding or tracked in dirt. With indoor, climate-controlled storage, there is also a lower chance that rodents or insects will make a home in your stored belongings.

Sensitive items can be affected by warping, splitting, or cracking due to fluctuations in temperature. If you have expensive furniture made from leather or wood, protect your investment by renting an indoor heated storage unit.
Anything you would typically store in your garage or shed is ideal for storing in an unheated storage unit. Climate-controlled storage is highly recommended for sensitive and fragile items.
At Elite Self Storage we offer indoor climate-controlled storage units or drive-up unheated storage units. Our climate controlled units also come with drive-in loading bays to keep you warm and dry when unloading or loading— convenient storage near you in Edmonton.
As your business grows and expands, you may want to consider renting a commercial storage space.
Renting a commercial storage unit for business storage is great for storing:
excess inventory
surplus furniture
seasonal furniture
displays
promotional and marketing material
Climate-controlled storage is more expensive than unheated storage; however, the cost is often outweighed by other benefits. You know your items are indoors and protected from the elements. You can also protect your furniture by using mattress covers, furniture covers, and other packing and moving materials.
