Features and Amenities
What is climate-controlled storage?
For items that may be especially sensitive to extreme weather conditions, climate-controlled storage is the answer. These units remain within a consistent range of temperature throughout the entire year to help certain items fight off damage from warping, tearing, cracking, and fading. No matter how hot or cold it is outside, your items will be kept in a consistent environment with climate-controlled storage.
What can I store in a climate-controlled unit?
