Self-storage units can be daunting when choosing the right company to work with. Not only do you want unit security, but the storage facility needs to be clean, well-kept and provide the right hours. Doing research on the storage facility before using them for storing your items is essential.  Self-storage should never make you doubt your decision to store with the specific company.

What You Want from a Storage Facility

While searching for the ideal self-storage facility, these are some of the considerations you have to make in order to find out if it is the best match for you, and the storing you need to have done.

• The security of the entire area is important. Do they have security features in place such as a locked gate around the units, is it inside, do they have cameras? Some facilities have 24/7 workers on site at all times.
• Do they require you to lock into a long-term contract? You may only want to store your items for a month or two, so long-term contracts would not work.
• What are the hours for getting into your unit? Some have specific times that you’re able to come and go, while others offer 24/7 access, whenever you need to get in and grab something.
• Do they provide concierge services of your items so that you can access them, or have them bring your items out to you when you’re in need of them but cannot get to the unit?
• Do they have climate controlled facilities that you’re able to make use of if you have something that cannot be in extreme heat or cold? These might cost a bit more, but having them can allow you to store with confidence knowing that your items will not be ruined.
• Do they have an extensive list of forbidden items that you cannot store with them?

You want to have someone that caters to the storage needs that you have, but also provides safety and security of all your items. With someone that can provide you with these, you’re better able to make a decision to go with them.
