How do I protect my items while being stored?

We take the security of our Occupant’s items seriously. We work quickly to repair maintenance issues with regular inspections. Due to the changing seasons at many of our facilities, occasional condensation can occur due to concrete slab sweating during the warmer months. We chemically treat the concrete in an effort to counteract this. To avoid potential issues related so sweaty concrete slabs, we recommend that occupants use pallets if storing items that can be damaged by condensation. We further recommend storing items susceptible to moisture off the floor and/or in plastic totes.

 

The best practice for protection in all seasons is to place items on pallets inside the unit.

 

Will my month be pro-rated when I move out?

No – all billing and move-outs occur on the first of the month.
