Are you looking at renting a storage unit? Have you thought about the conditions in a storage unit? Will the temperature and the humidity effect your valuables? Extreme hot or cold weather can effect the exterior of your home so why couldn’t it effect the things you place in your self storage unit? Humidity can also have a negative effect on your things you put in your storage unit. Some storage facilities offer climate controlled units, and some don’t.
