Climate-Controlled Storage in Frederick, MD

When to Use

Climate-Controlled Storage Units

You may be wondering when climate-controlled storage units should be used, compared to a traditional storage unit. We recommend climate-controlled storage units in Frederick for a variety of items, especially those sensitive to extreme temperature changes. Climate control helps protect your temperature-sensitive items during the duration of your storage unit lease. Items benefiting from climate-controlled storage include:

• Electronics including TVs, computers, cameras, phones and stereo systems
• Wood, leather and upholstered furniture
• Musical instruments
• Media such as vinyl records, CDs, DVDs, cassette tapes and VHS tapes
• Artwork, antiques and collectibles
• Documents and records

Various types of musical instruments should be stored in a climate-controlled unit in order to prevent mold and mildew from damaging them. Brasses and woodwinds are especially susceptible to extreme changes in moisture. Stringed instruments can warp and pianos and suffer from both warping and mold.

Additional personal items, such as clothing and collections (such as baseball cards, stamps and comic books), should also be stored in the consistent environment of a climate-controlled storage unit.
