WHY INDOOR STORAGE

Climate-Controlled Storage

Most climate-controlled storage is available in interior storage units. If you’re storing items that are sensitive to extreme temperatures, climate control is a feature worth considering.

Protection from the Outdoors

Having another layer of protection between your belongings and the outdoors means that your storage unit is more protected from drastic temperature swings, pests, and more.

Comfort

Being inside a building when visiting your self storage unit can be more comfortable. This is especially true if you’ll be visiting often and your region experiences severe weather.

Enhanced Security

Extra Space Storage takes security seriously. Our facilities utilize security features like electronic gate access and video surveillance, and our indoor storage units can sometimes include additional features like security access to your floor only and individual unit alarms at select locations.

First-Floor Access

Having first-floor or ground-level access is the most convenient option. If you plan to take items in and out of storage regularly, or simply want the easiest option for moving in and out, this is a great option.

Elevator Access

If you’re interested in saving a little each month, elevator access to upper-level storage units still provide an easily accessible storage space at a lower monthly cost.

Let’s take a look at some items and scenarios in which an indoor storage unit would be your best option:

  • If you’re storing electronics, media, wooden furniture, artwork, collectibles, and other temperature-sensitive items in an area with extreme weather.

  • If you’re storing important business items, such as pharmaceutical supplies, important documents, and more.

  • If you plan to visit your self storage unit often and live in an area where harsh weather is prominent throughout the year.

  • If you’re storing valuable items and want an extra layer of protection between your belongings and the outside world.

  • If storing in a large city, indoor storage units will be the most available and conveniently located options near you.

  • If you plan to store your belongings long term.
