self-storage units

Climate Masters is the Lowcountry’s preferred provider of climate controlled self-storage units, boat storage, auto storage and RV storage. Our customers trust us because we not only provide fair storage rates, but our facilities feature high tech security to ensure the contents of our self-storage units are safe.

Storage rates vary by size of the unit.  One way to save money is to organize your storage space for maximum use.  This article is the first of a two part series on how you can maximize and organize space in your storage unit.

When packing boxes, try to use uniform sizes

Boxes that are uniform in size stack more efficiently and evenly than boxes of many different shapes and sizes.  Even stacks save space and are easier to access.  Climate Masters offers uniform size boxes to help make your packing more productive and organized.

Plan your layout

Planning your layout can help alleviate the need for a larger storage space. We can give you exact dimensions of the climate controlled storage units you are considering to help you determine the right size to fit your needs.

Anticipate Future Needs

Try to think about your future storage space needs.  If the layout you’ve planned is tight, then you may want to consider the next size up if you plan to add more items in the future.  However, if the storage space is only temporary, a smaller unit may suffice.

Our next article will discuss ways you can better organize your storage space.  When it comes to self-storage units, Climate Masters has you covered!  In addition to climate controlled self-storage units, we also offer auto storage, including car storage, RV storage and boat storage at our Summerville and Hanahan locations.

Why You Should Consider Indoor Storage

in

storage space

Our last article discussed some advantages of climate-controlled storage space. This article will cover more reasons why you should consider indoor storage when exploring storage rental options.

Enhanced security

Outdoor storage space is more susceptible to break-in’s than indoor storage facilities. Storage rental at Climate Masters not only includes air-controlled storage, but high-tech security as well. Access to the buildings that house our storage space is controlled so you can rest easy knowing your items are safe and secure!

Better air quality

Our air-controlled storage rental space has better air quality than outdoor storage space because of the way in which our climate controlled self-storage units are sealed.

Less dust, debris, mold and pests

Indoor storage units have much less dust, debris, mold and pests than outdoor storage facilities. Our buildings are sealed and insulated to help keep dust, debris and bugs at bay.  Climate control also helps with mold prevention.

While storage rates for indoor storage are slightly more, most people find it is well worth the investment.  If you are researching storage rental options, we invite you to come by and take a tour of our climate-controlled storage facilities. If you need boat or car storage, we’ve got you covered. You will be impressed with your auto storage and RV storage options available at our Hanahan and Summerville locations. Give us a call today!

Advantages of Climate Controlled Storage Space

in

storage space

There are many storage rental facilities throughout the Lowcountry.  When it comes to finding a safe storage space for items you need to store, climate is a big consideration.  Climate Masters Indoor Storage offers excellent storage rates on climate-controlled storage space.  We have 34,000 sq. ft. of air-controlled storage in Daniel Island, 36,000 sq. ft of storage rental space in Summerville and 66,000 sq. ft. of storage rental space in Hanahan.

Let’s take a look at some advantages of a climate-controlled storage space:

Protects contents from extreme temperatures

We live in an area that is humid and hot a good part of the year.  Think about the items you store in your garage vs. those you keep inside.  A climate-controlled storage space helps protect items from cracking, warping, yellowing and other damage.  Summer is extremely hot, while temperatures in the winter get considerably cool. Drastic changes in temperature can be detrimental to contents stored in outdoor storage units.

Move contents in comfort

When you pay for storage rental, the ability to access the unit and move items in comfort is important.  You will be especially happy you chose an air-controlled storage facility when the heat index is above 90 degrees, or when the afternoon thunderstorms hit!

Protection from the elements

Outdoor storage space is especially susceptible to flooding and leaks.  There is also an increased chance of mold and mildew.

When considering storage rental space, air-controlled storage has a significant advantage over outdoor storage units.  Storage rates for air-controlled storage vary by size of the unit. We will discuss more advantages of climate-controlled storage space in our next article.

We invite you to come to one of our locations to discuss your needs and to take a tour of our indoor storage facilities. Need boat or car storage?  No problem. We also offer boat storage, RV storage and auto storage in our Summerville and Hanahan locations. Give Climate Masters Indoor Storage a call today!

Cleaning Up the Clutter – How Storage Units Can Help

in

indoor storage

Cleaning up clutter and streamlining your home is trending as people throughout the country strive to simplify.  While this may sound easy, the struggle to minimize becomes apparent when faced with the possibility of selling or throwing away keepsakes and items you have been hanging on to over the years.  The good news is that storage facilities afford you the best of both worlds.  You can simplify and still retain some of the keepsakes you just can’t bear to trash or sell.

Let’s take a look at some popular items people rent storage space for to help de-clutter their homes:

Toys

Do you still have the Matchbox cars you collected as a kid?  Has your child outgrown their first bicycle but you are not ready to get rid of it? Placing old toys, bicycles and other items you and/or your children no longer use in a secured storage unit is a perfect way to cut the clutter.

Collectibles

Do you still have that Cookie Monster cookie jar from when your children were little?  Or, how about old records, tapes or CDs?  Maybe some classic lunch boxes?  These are examples of collectibles that can easily clutter up your home.  Yet, you don’t want to throw them away.  Our climate controlled storage building is an excellent solution that allows you to keep your collectibles but not the clutter!

Dishes and Stemware

Oh, what to do with great grandma’s fine china.  Packing it up and storing it in a secured storage space is definitely an option!

Clothing

Storage facilities provide the perfect way to unclutter your drawers and closets. A climate controlled storage unit allows you to preserve old clothing such as concert t-shirts, military uniforms, baby clothes and other items that you would like to keep but no longer wear.

Furniture

You’ve just inherited your grandmother’s antique dining room set but have no room in your home.  Or, perhaps your first born has outgrown his or her crib and you want to keep it for their future brother or sister but don’t have the storage space in your home. You don’t have to get rid of it.  Instead consider securely storing furniture you do not use but want to keep in a climate controlled indoor storage unit.

When it comes to safe, clean and reliable indoor storage space, people throughout the Lowcountry turn to Climate Masters.  We also have RV storage, auto storage and boat storage at our Summerville and Hanahan locations.  Our secured and climate controlled storage facilities can help you declutter your home while giving you peace of mind that your items and keepsakes are safe.
