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 is a storage option that maintains a consistent temperature inside your self-storage unit. Sensitive and fragile items are better protected in a temperature controlled storage unit as they are not exposed to extreme temperatures. Non climate controlled storage units are not heated or cooled, which means your belongings will be subject to seasonal outdoor temperatures.
Self storage can be used on a short term or long term basis. Renting a climate controlled storage unit in Edmonton will ensure your belongings are 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 less chance that rodents or insects will make a home in your stored belongings.
Constant temperature
Dust reduction
Better rodent protection
Lower risk of damage
Sheltered from the weather
Peace of mind
Sensitive items can suffer from warping, splitting, or cracking due to fluctuating temperature changes. If you have expensive furniture made from leather or wood, protect your investment by renting an indoor heated storage unit.
Some examples of items that should be stored in climate controlled units are:
Expensive artwork
Family heirlooms
Antique Furniture
Books
Cosmetics and toiletries
CD's, DVD's and cassette tapes
Musical Instruments
Electronics
Collectibles
Wooden Furniture
Anything you would normally store in your garage or shed is perfect to store in an unheated storage unit. Climate controlled storage is highly recommended for sensitive and fragile items.
