Why Get a Climate Controlled Unit at U-Haul Self-Storage?

Getting a climate-controlled storage unit with U-Haul Self-Storage is critical if you have items you'd like to protect from weather and humidity. You might be surprised just how many personal items can be affected by the outdoor elements. Non-climate-controlled storage can get up to 30 degrees hotter than outside temperatures. Meaning a 90-degree day is 120 degrees inside a non-climate-controlled unit.

What Climate-Controlled Storage Saves…

    Metal, Wood, and Plastics

    As the weather cycles between hot and cold throughout the year, metal, wood, and plastic products begin to warp, expand and crack if they're not in a climate-controlled U-Haul Self-Storage unit environment. Media like CDs, DVDs, and vinyl records will start to warp at 120 degrees.

    Clothing and Fabrics

    If not in climate-controlled storage, clothing and fabrics begin to wear down and grow mold or mildew. Items can begin to lose their color when exposed to the heat and elements over time. Hot air holds more water vapor; cold air holds less water vapor. Climate-controlled storage removes moisture from the air, keeping your belongings mold and mildew-free in your U-Haul Self-Storage unit.

    Sentimental Items

    Antiques, family heirlooms, and photos cannot be replaced. When exposed to the heat and elements, these delicate belongings can also warp, crack, and attract mold/mildew. This can devalue any belonging. Climate-controlled storage removes all the worry about keeping your items safe.

    You

    Your items aren't the only ones that need climate control. If you live in an area that has extremely high or low temperatures or high humidity throughout the year, moving items in and out of your unit and home may become unpleasant and even dangerous. U-Haul Self-Storage climate-controlled units provide you with comfort while accessing your belongings.
