What is the humidity level in climate-controlled storage?
Our climate-controlled units are dehumidified and maintained at humidity levels below 50%, helping reduce moisture-related issues such as mold, mildew, and corrosion.

Rental rates are locked for at least 365 days from move-in, providing predictable pricing without surprise increases during that period.
When are payments due?
Payments are due on the first day of each month. When you move in, your first month’s rent is prorated based on your move-in date, so you only pay for the days you actually use.
Do you offer move-in specials or promotions?
Yes. We regularly offer move-in specials on select units, often including 50% off for a promotional period. Promotions vary by unit size and availability, so check current unit listings for today’s offers.
Do I need insurance for the contents of my unit?
Yes. Insurance is required for all stored items. You may either purchase insurance through us or provide proof of your own renter’s or homeowner’s insurance.
Are there late fees?
Yes. If payment is not received by the 4th day of the month, a $20 late fee is applied on the 5th day. Continued non-payment may result in restricted access or additional fees.
Are stored vehicles required to be insured?
Yes. All stored vehicles must maintain active vehicle insurance at all times while stored at our facility.
What is the administrative fee for?
The administrative fee helps cover account setup, documentation, and processing associated with your rental. This fee also covers the lock that is included with your unit.
What is your refund policy?
Move out by the 15th and receive a prorated rent refund once your unit is empty, clean, and ready to re-rent. No rent refunds are issued for move-outs after the 15th. Refunds apply to monthly rent only; fees, insurance, locks, merchandise, late fees, and other charges are non-refundable.
