Contract
Before you agree to store your belongings with a storage provider, make sure you understand the contract. Is there flexibility to alter your needs month-by-month, or are you locked in for a full year? Ask questions and be wary of companies that pressure you to sign a contract quickly.
Flexibility
Most people want the ability to increase or decrease their storage capacity as needs change. In this case, simplicity is key: find a company that makes it easy for you to reconfigure on a monthly basis if needed, without a lot of red tape or add-on fees.
Setting
The ideal storage facility should be clean, climate-controlled, and possess the necessary controls to prevent damage from flooding, fire, etc. Accessibility is also important, and so too is the condition and robustness of the storage units themselves.
Security
Everyone wants the peace of mind that comes with knowing their in-storage items are safe and sound. In-unit lighting, well-lit hallways, and cameras are important for putting customers at ease. It’s also essential for a storage company to be licensed and insured for operation in your city and state. Moreover, it pays to confirm that the storage provider always has staff available to assist with transferring items (especially expensive items) in and out of your unit.
Where Are Your Items Being Stored?
Storage facilities come in all shapes and sizes, some are made of concrete, which provides insulation from severe weather. Cement buildings also are more secure against intruders and pests. Others consist of thin metal exteriors without insulation and these do not provide much protection. Be sure to tour your preferred storage facility to see things for yourself.
