Climate-controlled units are designed to keep your belongings safe in a stable environment year-round. By maintaining a consistent temperature range—generally between 55° and 80°—these units help protect items that could be damaged by extreme heat, cold, or sudden temperature changes. Because they’re located indoors, they also provide added protection from humidity, creating conditions similar to those inside your home.

Is Climate-Controlled Storage Right for You?

If you’re planning to store belongings that don’t handle heat, cold, or humidity well, climate-controlled storage is a smart choice. These units maintain a consistent temperature year-round, helping protect sensitive items from weather-related damage.

Common items that often benefit from climate control include:

• Wooden or leather furniture
• Electronics and appliances
• Important documents and photographs
• Musical instruments
• Artwork and collectibles

Not sure if you need climate control? A good rule of thumb: if it’s something you’d be comfortable keeping in your living room or home closet, it’ll likely do best in a climate-controlled unit.
