While AAA Southside Storage can’t control what’s going on outside your self storage unit, we can control what’s going on inside to make sure your valuables stay protected.
Why Do I Need Temperature Controlled Storage?
Extreme temperature fluctuations can damage certain belongings. Storing them in an environment that is closer to your house's environment is a safer option. Consider storing these items in a temperature controlled storage unit.
Wooden Furniture: High levels of humidity can cause wood to warp and crack, inflicting major damage to your valuables.
Leather Furniture: Temperature
changes can also take a big toll on your leather pieces, causing discoloration
and a buildup of mildew.
Appliances: Extreme
heat or cold could cause mechanical parts to crack or rust, causing some major
damage.
Electronics: Most
electronics – like computers, stereos, and plasma TVs – aren’t built to handle
big temperature fluctuations. Humidity is also dangerous to your electronics
and can cause as much damage as a direct water spill.
Clothes: Once
again, humidity plays a big role when it comes to storing your clothes, and can
cause a buildup of mildew and even mold.
Pictures:
Pictures do not do good with temperature and humidity fluctuations. High humidity
and temperature changes can cause them to stick together and discolor.
