Storage has become a booming business in Canada as more and more people find they own more items than they have room to store. Whether you have downsized to a smaller home, are a student who needs temporary summer storage for your furnishings or want a safe place to park your recreational vehicles, self-storage units offer a wide variety of solutions to suit any budget. Here we review the many different types of storage spaces available and what they are best suited for.
North America has a changing climate that can make storage for many items a little risky. Luckily there are climate-controlled storage units available to help maintain a consistent temperature to protect your belongings. While you might not think a climate-controlled unit is necessary, you have to understand why dropping and rising temperatures can cause issues. Extreme temperatures at either end of the thermostat can lead to damage as many materials such as wood expand and contract in hot and cold weather.
Inconsistent temperatures can also lead to moisture issues, and moisture can lead to all kinds of damage across a wide variety of materials. Anything made of wood can warp, split, and crack when temperatures continuously fluctuate. However, if you add moisture into the mix, you can see some of your most cherished items damaged by mould, mildew and even rust.
24-hour access storage is a must if you tend to have a very busy or unusual schedule. Not all storage facilities allow entry 24/7. This makes it difficult if you have an emergency or you don’t tend to be available during the facility’s operating hours. There’s a long list of reasons you might need to access your belongings at odd hours, and therefore you might consider a storage facility that allows you to store and retrieve items when you need them.
With more storage facilities popping up across Canada, renters are realizing the convenience of vehicle storage.
If you have an RV that you can only use seasonally, it can be tough finding a spot on your own property for storage. Many areas will not allow you to park a large RV in your own driveway or even on the street. Parking on the street is also not the most secure solution. Whether you have a boat, mobile home, jet skis, snowmobiles or a camper, RV storage is the perfect solution.
You can choose from a wide selection of unit sizes both indoors and out. You can also choose a larger unit to store all your accessories or other seasonal gear. Drive-up units are also available so you can easily offload items like jet skis, ATVs, dirt bikes, mountain bikes, snowmobiles, etc.
There are a wide variety of storage unit sizes available for all your storage needs. Some standard sizes and what they can typically accommodate include:
